The scene is set at Haig Avenue on December 18,1951, as Southport and Reading face off in an intense Second Round First Replay match. The photograph showcases the camaraderie and determination of the Reading team as they stand united before the game. In the back row, we see G. Brice, S. Wicks, J. Lewis, G. Marks, J.

Their expressions reveal their passion for the sport and their eagerness to make a mark in this crucial match.
