Old Coventry Amateur Team (1 Viewer)

[Mercian In Anglia]

Anyone got any clues as to which team this might be? 1930s, perhaps Spon End area (maybe a works team)?

The only minor clue is that Massey Ferguson (running/athletics) share the same top..... Red/White quarters.

I don't know how long Massey's have been a feature in the City, but the running club didn't form until 1977 though.

Gemini and ChatGPT both point to a Works Team and mention Coventry Alvis which would link in with Spon End nicely

They were about in early sixties,my dad used to play for them, one of those traits that help you with job application's in the 60' even if you were an immigrant.

To me that looks like a football team infiltrated by some Peaky Blinders.
