OLD PICTURES OF BLACKPOOL FC

I was only three years old when Hughes broke Osgoods leg but my Dad was there and always said the tackle was that hard you could probably hear Osgoods leg breaking down Central Drive!!!
 
A team pic from 1928/29 season nicked off Farcebook .Maybe @Wizaard will know some of these players (winky thingy)

Can anyone tell me whether the man in the suit and tie was the manager? If so, would it be Sydney Beaumont who , my Calley states, resigned in the Spring of 1929, (when we were in the bottom three of Div 2), or Harry Evans who took over as honorary manager until Sandy McFarlane took over in 1933?
 
The picture is apparently from February, so it's probably Mr. Beaumont (any relation to big Bill I wonder?) and nowadays he'd be getting all sorts of abuse on here. We should be beating teams like Nelson!
