  • Below Are Details of the Boys' 1 XI Cricket 1938 to 1969. Complete
    Below are details of the Boys’ 1st XI Cricket 1938 to 1969. Complete teams’ names are available from 1949 onwards. Information regarding early photographs in this section is somewhat sketchy. As with the other sports featured in this archive, the number preceding the pupil name is the school registration number of that particular pupil. If the number does not appear then that is either because there is no surviving school report in school detailing that pupil’s activities or the activity is not recorded on their report. The only other information we have therefore is from the school magazine, Roesian. Words in italics are drawn directly from Roesian. Boys Cricket st 1 XI (the first four photographs are by kind permission of Mr Nelson McGonagle) st Boys’ Cricket 1 XI Ernest Crockett Jack Adams Jack Austin Tony Murphy Billy McCully Victor Ryan John McCunn Ken Semple William Alcorn st Boys’ Cricket 1 XI Ernest Crockett Jack Adams Jack Austin William Alcorn Tony Murphy Jack Semple Billy McCully Victor Ryan John McCunn Ken Semple 1938 S P McGushin (Captain) ‘Since the Cricket season was longer than usual we were able to have a larger number of practices before the matches began. We had a team composed mostly of hard hitters with a few cautious batsmen to steady them in a crisis. The matches were, therefore, all the more exciting and there were few drawn games. While the younger members of the team were inclined to be rather venturous, their enthusiasm augurs well for our success in the coming season.’ ‘The Old Boys’ played the School 1st XI at cricket on 23rd June 1938.

En los últimos años nos hemos acostumbrado a escuchar este tipo de comentarios Marc Menchén por parte de algunos aficionados, y lo cierto es que quizás Director de Palco23 se corresponde con la situación de tiempos pasados, pero no con la que en Palco23 nos encontramos hace ya casi dos años, cuando este proyecto empezaba a configurarse.

    WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 20, 2014 SPORTS Italy coach Conte shrugs off wages controversy ROME: New Italy coach Antonio Conte brushed aside controversy over his wages, which will be part funded by the national federation’s spon- sors, when he was officially presented yesterday. “Nobody imposes anything on me. My eyes and those of my assistants will be the judge, not sponsors nor newspapers,” he told reporters after succeeding Cesare Prandelli. Conte, who was appointed last week and takes charge of his first match against Netherlands in a friendly in Bari on Sept. 4, previously led Juventus to three successive Serie A titles in as many seasons. The media pointed out a possible conflict of interest after the Italian federation (FIGC) said it had reached an agreement with sponsors, including sportswear manufacturers Puma, to help fund Conte’s wages. “Everyone who knows me knows that this is not a problem,” said the new coach after signing his contract. “My con- tract falls within Italian federation parameters. There is a winning mentality and it’s right for the FIGC to reach an agreement with the sponsors. “Unlike my predecessors I have given up all my image rights,” added Conte. “For me the contro- versy over this contract is secondary, I want to work and there is a long and tortuous road in front of us. “I will prove myself with facts, not with words, ROME: New Italian Football Federation (FIGC) president Carlo Tavecchio (right) poses with as I have always done.” FIGC president Carlo Italy’s national football team new coach Antonio Conte, prior to a press conference in Rome Tavecchio said the agreement with the sponsors yesterday.
