canary cherub 1 Posted September 8, 2006 With pleasure, John.The following information comes from "Glorious Canaries" by Mike Davage. There''s a biography of each player as well if you''re interested. I think it''s still obtainable from the club shop.1905 BUSHELL, William MUIR, Robert BROWN, George Gerald GRAHAM, Samuel1909 GOOCH - the only Gooch I can find is Percy George but he was a centre forward, 1903-7 and 1909-10 CRAIG, Charles Thomson CHAMBERS, Herbert NEWLANDS, George RAYNER, William Thomas1910 DRUCE, Walter CHICK, John William GUNTON, Samuel Arthur TAYLOR, Walter Joseph 1911 FELL, George POTTER, Cecil Bertram1912 PEARSON, James Henry WOODLAND (no S), Arthur BAUCHOP, William Fotheringham HUGHES, William J1913 SUTCLIFFE, Percy TRAVIS, Aaron1919/20 SKERMER, Herbert Edward GROVES, John William HALL, Fretwell LAXTON, Edward George KIRK, Walter Edward TAYLOR - can''t find any Taylor for 1919/20, the nearest is William, outside right 1931 Hope this helps.OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John - 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Thanks chaps - I take my hat off to you both.I wasn''t quite expecting such a reply so soon, but it''s certainly helped me clear up a few loose ends.I''ll certainly be looking to purchase a copy of that book in the not too distant future from the club shop.I actually missed out the 1913-14 list I had - This would really be the icing on the cake!!1913-14Bell - DefenderMacdonald, Wilson - WingersRitchie - ForwardValiant - Centre-HalfValentine - Inside ForwardOnce again, many thanks.

canary cherub 1 Posted September 8, 2006 [quote user="Yellow Rages"]Out of interest Mystic one, was their a player in the fifties by the name of Michael Ryan?[/quote]There''s no Michael Ryan listed in the book, YR. It does not guarantee to be 100% complete but where there are gaps they are usually much earlier.Also it only includes players who made at least one first team appearance, not those who only played for the reserves.
