I hope someone could help name all the people here....

I've put together a key to make things easier. Obviously, some are much easier than others.

Thank you. And yes, quite right about it being 1977.

Is 9 definitely Glen Geard, I thought he'd left by then prior to returning for a second spell. I wondered if it was Mick Kerslake.

I assume this photo was taken after the win against Sheffield Wednesday on May 3rd 1977. The team for that game was:-

Steele, Tiler, Wilson, Horton, Rollings, Cross, Fell, Ward, Mellor, Piper, O'Sullivan. Morgan replaced Fell on 70 minutes.

Hopefully with a process of elimination that will help identify the players in the photo.
