Saturday, September 14 – 1918
I (Bee) am glad that Mr. George Patterson has been appointed secretary of Liverpool F.C. – an exclusive announcement made in the “Football Echo” on Saturday. He is a practical man, unobtrusive, and shows wisdom with pen and in football matters. He is following one of the best in the late Tom Watson, but has been well schooled, and will make good. In his football days he played a deal of football with Orrell and other clubs, but from an Army point of view his big frame is useless – he has an extraordinary number of wriggling bones that have been broken. Here’s to him!
