Hi All,

Might anyone know which team is pictured here in this 18x13cm photograph? I'm assuming it's pre WW2 but I'm not sure even of this.

Thanks in advance

Any chance you might blow it up a bit, please?

That looks like one of those practice towers they have at fire stations in the background

It has got a continental look. French , Italian, Spanish? Don’t think it is British.

Maybe French?
Late 40s early 1950s?

Just a hunch. Is that the great Raymond Kopa , darker shirt , front row, next to the man in the suit?

whoever it is the team is post war not pre war. Likely to be 1950's even early 1960's, but the image is so poor they could all be old codgers! Laughing

Here are some more photos close-up - I've still no idea which team it is, where they're from and when the photo was taken!

I would say 100% not British other than that-like you.
