I am in possession of an old notebook that I believe once belonged to Scratch Arnold. In it are details of who played in every game for the 1st XV during the 1954-55 season and both the 1st and 2nd XV for the 1955-56 season.
An example is shown below:
I intend to add these to the stats on the website. However, I will need some help. Only the first initial is given rather than the name. Also in what order would the players have been listed? Am I right in assuming that the top most name is number 15 and that the positions descend downwards 14, 13, 12, 11 etc down to number 1 at the bottom?
Any help gratefully received.
Finally, I hope it goes without saying that if anyone else out there has anything like this, for any team, even if it's just for a single game then please pass it on to Gren or myself. We will copy whatever you have and return the original immediately.
