A bit before my time, but after a bit of googling, and hoping that I'm not sending you down the wrong path, I think No 344 could be Andrew George Seeley, who was a senior teacher at Wymondham College in the late 1970's and was heavily involved in local cricket in his later years although I can't find any mention of football. He died on 23 March 2016, aged 88, so would be about the right age.

 Mr G D Green ( George) was my headmaster at the junior school I attended.

 It was only a year or two ago someone who attended my school and older than me told me what Mr Green did on a Saturday 😀
