Re: 25-man squad list

If you leave out Bayer and Amdouni we still have 26 plus 4 under 21 on 1/1/25
That 26 includes Tresor and Delcroix
So there is no room for additions and one of the 26 has to be left out of the 25 over 21 on 1/1/25

Les not on the pic either and like Holden didnt sign until Nov 49 and pretty sure Jack Butterfield's presence on that pic puts it summer of 1949 at the latest. So my guess is sometime between September 1948 and summer 1949.
