Hartlepool v Barrow?

Post by Shurdan » Sun Apr 27, 2025 11:28 am

Good morning, could anyone please confirm that this photo shows Hartlepool v Barrow in the early 60's?

I thought that might be your keeper Brian Caine and I can't identify the bald defender.

On a side note, does anyone know if Brian Caine is still with us and maybe his where abouts if he is as I'd really like to get him to sign my copy of 'A Cobblers who's who'

Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure that is Brian 'Yogi' Caine and I don't recognise the other defenders; doesn't look like a Barrow kit to me. According to Wikipedia Yogi is still with us, aged 88.
Don't let the old man in.

I think that could be Fred Else.

Who's the big lump defender, then?

It’s not Barrow. It’s Hartlepools v Bradford Park Avenue, 30th November 1963. Hartlepools won 4-2. The keeper is Bradford’s John Dine and the big chap is player-manager, Jimmy Scoular.

Looking at the stand not sure if it is Holker Street or as you say Hartlepool. Quite similar really.

From memory, we had 'Barrow AFC' emblazoned on the end panel. This is definitely not HS but Jimmy Scoular! wow, Tavistock Bluebird, that's hugely impressive.
