The photo is dated 1983, I know the Rowdies II team played the Lightnin' in 1982, but cannot find any record of this game. I know it's from 1983, as #20 is Eduardo Bonvallet, he joined the Rowdies in '83. 
I think the other Rowdie maybe Jimmy Easton, can anyone shed any light on this photo. Many thanks.
