1936 - West Hartlepool Elwick Road Old Boys - Junior Cup Winners

What we know about this image :

Building on the success of the previous seasons, 1934/35 season saw them travel  to Houghton for the Junior Cup Final going down by just 8 - 0 to Sunderland Hornets. In 1935/36 season they again made it to the Final this time at Clarence Road when they overcame Hartlepool B.B.O.B by 12 pts to 6.

No doubt the trophies were proudly displayed at the Beechfield Drive home of Club President Mr Peacock.
