This is Tottenham Juniors 1947-48 with their trophy haul, taken at White Hart Lane.
Thought I would share it as we are saying bye to the old girl on Sunday and have had many family memories there.

My Grandad is middle row on the far right. If by chance anyone has any knowledge on the history of the Junior and reserve teams around this period myself and my family would be very grateful.

Anyone recognise any of the players apparently a few went on to play for the First Team.

The player in bottom left is John Ponti, my Dad, still alive and living in Watford. He had to go in the army after this was taken, think when he came out, Spurs offered him a fiver a week, Fulham offered £5.10 shillings, but the railway was paying £6.10 shillings , so that’s where he went! Got quite a few photos from this period if anyone interested. Think he played with Tommy Harper, and Alfie? Markey?

Is Mr Ponti Italian stock?
