Are you sure its not 1970? If not it must be very close to then. Even to my (very young at the time) eye, I can see Bill Leivers, Terry Eades, Bill Cassidy, Peter Leggett, Mel & Rodney Slack, Dennis Walker and I think John Gregson, all of whom were in the team that won promotion in 1970. |

Yes I can remember the players not sure if it was from the year before,
The other 2 trophies I think are the Southern league cup and the Cambridgeshire professional cup if I am not mistaken,
We use to play Cambridge City in the final every year as i think scumboro was in Huntingdonshire in them days.

Pretty sure that was the 1968-69 season as we wore white as the primary kit in 1969-70.

I stand to be corrected here but I had a go at naming the players so here goes.... Back row left to right John Gregson Terry Eades Keith Barker Gerry Baker Robin Hardy Bill Leivers Manager Rodney Slack Jackie Scurr Peter Leggat ................... Front row left to right Brian Grant Mel Slack Rolly Horrey Bill Cassidy Dennis Walker Jim Thompson Tony Butcher John Saunders |

1969 photo, club changed to white half way through 69-70 season Peter leggett must have been a new signing, Jackie Scurr left in 69, along with Gerry Baker who was replaced by Terry Eades and George Harris joined the following season. |
