Seems everything is going well since the first team moved into the new facility at Gawthorpe

LUXURY!
I bet they're using that red ultra-pongy carbolic soap.

Blimey, that red soap ! ! I had forgotten all about that stuff.

Thanks for the memory LB.

Bet that wasn't too far off Jimmy Holland's physio days.

FunkyD. Don't know about you but I recall that soap from going to the baths with school in late 1950s + (I think) after Junior School footy down Cherry Fold in that barn-type place with the big bath (/pool of mud).

Of course....the soap....now let's have a fumble in the water, to see if I can locate it...

Wonder who the 3 perverts are at the back ? On a more serious note , do we know where/when pic was taken ?

Premier League money.
Do we have running hot water now too?

LeadB, that's exactly where I remember it from - Gannow baths from Lowerhouse Juniors
and Central/North Street from Towneley.

Happy days.

Superb pic.

Reluctant to suggest this, in case miles out, but front left looks like Tommy Boyle around 1923?

No idea when or who but it's Aston Villa.

Villa! If it's Birmingham, maybe it's a scene from the next Peaky Blinders.
