"The F.A are introducing this season an intermediate committee to
assist the main selection committee by searching for those players in those
League by-ways which managers, fans and other have thought so neglected in the
past. The new body of five will devote their activities exclusively to the
Second and Third Divisions. The five are:-
Harold Shentall, Chesterfield, David Wiseman, Birmingham, Frank
Adams, Joe Richards, Barnsley and Harry Hughes." -
Daily Herald, Monday, 20 August 1951
"Mr Joe Richards, of Barnsley, who is
president of the Midland League, has succeeded Mr H. Shentall as chairman of the
F.A.'s Intermediate International Selection Committee." - The
Football Post, Saturday, 4 October 1952

the England crest worn, as well as the itinerary and programmes, all confirm
this as being a 'B' team tour. |
