Probably too large a file. If it's possible scan it again to the lowest possible dpi - 75 dpi for instance. And trim it to its minimum size. |

The corrugated iron roof and the man in the bow tie makes this look colonial. Maybe a FA XI tour? Robson and Owen were both on the tours of the Caribbean and South Africa in 1955 and 1956..
1955 TOUR OF BERMUDA, JAMAICA, TRINIDAD, AND CURACAO BY THE (ENGLISH) FA

Hall, Langley, and Robson did so later. Sharratt was an amateur international and played
for Great Britain at the 1956 Olympics.

I thought it might have been an overseas tour Sid, but front row ,right hand side is the Wolves player Gerry Harris. Harris never won a full England cap, don’t think he went on any overseas tours either. He won England Under 23 caps 1957-58, but don’t think Sid Owen would have been playing for the Under23s at that stage in his career. Could they have played an overage player? Can’t spot Gerry Harris in any Football League 11 teams either. Could be one of those England 11 benefit / Charity games , late 1950s.l notice a young Don Howe is in the pic as well. Were England representative teams still playing forces teams during the late 1950s? Just noticed, the goalie looks like Eddie Hopkinson. Can’t spot Jimmy Armfield Pete. |

There is a very similar picture in "Geoff Bradford, Bristol Rovers legend" by Ian Haddrell & Mike Jay.
Described as "The FA team who played against Bermuda on 12 May 1955"
Back row Harry Wright (trainer) Fank Adams (FA), Geoff Bradford, John Kelly, Ted Bennett, Peter Goring, Syd Collings (FA)
Front row Vic Groves, Jeff Hall, Jim Langley, Joe Richards (FA), Syd Owen, Bedford Jezzard, Bobby Robson, Johnny Hoskins |

Thought it was him standing back row, third left, but can now see it isn't him after all.
Great work guys |

Badhand and Colchestersid, got it totally spot on. I was wrong as well Pete, the player to the right of Bobby Robson is the spit of Gerry Harris, but is , in fact, Johnny Hoskins. That can’t be Hopkinson or Howe either. Looks like some of those Summer tours were a mixture from all levels of football. |
