Yes, he played in the match.
Thanks for that, Percy. Never thought they'd be storing data so specific as a team sheet for a specific match played so long ago!
I went to school with George Berry. He was in the year above me. I played for my third year team, and also a couple of times for the fourth year team alongside him. At that time I was absolutely obsessed with football because England had won the World Cup not long before.
He was my first real football hero. All these years, I never understood why he didn't make it into the England team, until you just pointed out he is Welsh! LOL!
Okay - that's my claim-to-fame for today. Tune in for another one tomorrow!
