Flintshire Memories: Sporting pictures from the past
FOR this week's dip into the Chronicle's picture archives we have turned out attention to sport.
Traditionally Flintshire football fans have either supported Chester City or Wrexham and we have tried to please both sets of supporters.
Who could forget Wrexham's FA Cup heroics against the mighty Gunners?
Our first picture was taken in an FA Cup third round tie back in 1992 and shows Mickey Thomas firing home the equaliser against Arsenal.
And for Blues fans, we have a picture taken at the old Sealand Round ground which shows Graham Turner, Kevin McHale and Eddie Loyden in action.
However, we are not quite sure when the picture was taken. Can you help?
Staying with football we have a team picture of Shotton Steel FC in the 1970s and Mold Alun School's team of 1948. Can you put names to faces?
And what were Flint rugby players up to during their fundraising effort of 1977?
Taking things more seriously are the cross country runners from the first ever meeting of the North Wales Cross Country League way back in 1954 in Erddig Park.
