Brilliant mate thanks very much. Everton results has his name 8th on the team sheet so I am guessing that is him. Certainly looks like him form my memory of when he came to see us play on Sunday mornings or the occasional school match. He had two lads both good players although neither became a pro. George was longer at Luton than Everton.
Just looked him up on Wikipedia. Died in 2009 RIP.

Thanks mate.
Out of interest do they put a g in his name because I am pretty certain that is a mistake.

Funnily enough Allez on the previous page of the the book it is in as Cummins G.
I take it as you mean him?

Yeah, George Cummins, no g is correct. Cummins G. must cause confusion to the proof readers.

On the 1952-53 page it is given as 'Cummings G'. (19 league appearances, 5 Cup)
On the 1951-52 page it is given as 'Cummins G'. (5 league appearances)
Doesn't appear for 1953-54 season.
So between those two pages, there is a spelling mistake on the surname.

The error is on the 1952-53 page.
He was transferred to Luton for the 1953-54 season.
