Skinningrove Junior F. C. (1924/25)

This is the year that Skinningrove Juniors took the North Riding Junior Cup and this is the photograph to celebrate that feat. Can you help with the missing names?
Standing: R. C. Biott, ? Skilbeck, George Franks, ? Darnbrough?, ? Smith, ? Matson, ? Webster?.
Middle: ??, Wilf Sanderson, ? Ovington, ? Welford, ? Turnbull.
Sitting: Frank Bullock, ? Russell, Harry Auckland, ? Riddiough, ??.

Julie Riddiough suggests: “I thought it might be Laurie Riddiough; he died in an accident at Skinningrove Tarmac works in 1927.” Whilst Andrea Richardson asks: “Is there any way to find out which teams won this cup in previous years please? I have a photograph of a team with a cup that looks very similar but maybe from the 1920s?” Colin Hart has provided an update which may assist with:Skinningrove Juniors were beaten in the North Riding Junior Cup final in 1921 then as Skinningrove Primitive Methodist Juniors went on to win the cup for five consecutive seasons.
