Alan Campbell- My life at the “Works” a series- An Introduction

My name j Alan Campbell but known by many as Cass.

I worked at the Billet Mill. The Masons Dept.TRD and then The Foundry.

At almost 88. I have fantastic memories

I was a good local footballer. After I became too old to play aged 50.

I started Shotley Hospital F.C..and Consett Over 40s F.C.

I started the Villa Real Cup for the under priviaged childern at Villa Real.

To my knowledge the Sunderland and District Over 40s may still run this competition.

I left Consett to retire in 2015. In the Wall to wall Sunshine of Thailand.
