Reds in the 50's

Great story and I suppose that would have been Sir Joe Richards in the chair? It was a good day in BFC history when he stood down. I think it was Sydney Edmundson who took over but he died suddenly and Ernest Dennis and Geoff Buckle were invited onto the board. They, of course, invested a massive £10,000 allowing the manager to sign Barrie Thomas and Johnny Evans and their goals gave the club a huge boost leading to promotion from the 4th Division.
