EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this nostalgic print from 5th May 1981, we witness the bittersweet moment when the renowned Blakeston Comprehensive School cup and league winning team prepares to disband after four glorious seasons together. The group of talented schoolboys, all aged 16, now face diverging paths as they either depart or move on to sixth form college. Amidst a backdrop adorned with gleaming trophies, we find captain Paul McIntosh standing proudly on the left, alongside vice captain Paul Winter. These young leaders have guided their teammates through countless victories and unforgettable moments on the football field. Notably, two standout players have already caught the attention of scouts - goalkeeper Gary Popple and winger Kevin Baker - who recently signed schoolboy forms with Darlington Football Club. Their exceptional skills promise a bright future in professional football. This image captures not only the triumphs achieved by these remarkable individuals but also serves as a poignant reminder of cherished memories shared within this close-knit team. As they bid farewell to one another and embark upon new endeavors, it is impossible not to feel a sense of both pride and nostalgia for these promising young athletes. Preserved by Teesside Archive's Memory Lane Prints collection, this snapshot transports us back to an era filled with youthful exuberance and unwavering dedication to sport. It stands as a testament to the indelible impact that youth football can have in shaping
