Interesting article here - PAST MASTERS - PADDY SOWDEN (says he came to Accrington in 1956 - think my old boss played for Stanley around that time too - Willy Millar)
Paddy Sowden played for Bacup Borough in 1947/48 after being released by Blackpool. Bacup sold him to Hull City. More info can be found in my book - The History of Bacup Football Club 1879-2014
