He especially liked his time playing for the Canaries, with Monty Moss cheering them on. He is still about but his days playing football are over.

On a purely practical note, the chap who runs the blog is now 91 plus and is urgently seeking a younger person to take over the everyday running of the site,

It requires very little computing experience and can be learnt in a few hours.

If you are remotelly interested e-mail Ron Goldstein

Many thanks

My Grandad Maurice Wogman (sometimes known as ‘Sutty’) was a member of the Cambridge & Bethnal Green Boys’ Club and spoke about his experiences with much pleasure for the whole of his life. I have one photograph of him on camp- would you like me to upload? I think he was probably camping earlier than the photos above. I would love to hear from anyone who remembers him or if anyone has photographs from before the war, that I may be able to find him in. He was a loving husband, father to three and grandfather to 9, we all miss him very much.
Kind Regards,
Rebecca

The blog is the ideal way to receive postings from old members or their families and your participation will always be welcome.

If any kind ( and younger) person would like to take over the control of the Blog to save it for future generations then I would be grateful to hear from them.

Club member since 1934

Hope the last reunion will be an event to remember, I am sure that it will be.

I wonder what else might be in his archive?
