According to 'Stenners 1953' the 1952 New Cross squad was - Bert Roger, Eric French, Cyril Roger, Sune Karlsson, Merv Harding, Frank Lawrence, Bill Longley, Tom Oakley, Bob Roger, Ronnie Genz. He's not named but I think Harold MacNaughton also rode for the Rangers that season.

Harold McNaughton rode for New Cross in some late season matches in 1952. I saw him in Rangers colours several times.

Harold McNaughton’s JAP had MACNAUGHTON on the rear mudguard for some reason. I used to sit on the bike as a kid in the shed where it sat for several years after he quit racing. An interesting Post. Can I assume by the surname Tony that you were related to Harold? Regarding the incorrect spelling of the surname - MACNAUGHTON and NOT as McNaughton. That most likely happened because the name was painted on the rear of the bike by a New Cross staff worker rather than the rider?
