Hello Gadget
I would be grateful if you could look up an Edwin Grant who I am told played for Everton. Not sure when this would have been but most likely sometime from early to  mid 20th century. Many thanks.

HI Gadget

Please could you look for my grandad Albert Worth.

Mum said he had trials for Manchester United and Crewe whilst he was playing at Macclesfield Town.

He was born in 1891 - so it would have been just before and after WW1  I imagine?

Thanks

Carol

Hi Gadget

No that's not him but thanks anyway.

It was a slim chance,cos mum's not 100% sure of her facts  ::)

He was born in Macclesfield in 1891.

Hi Gadget,

Can you possibly find any info on Arthur Arrowsmith, played in the 1900s.  I think he played for Wolves and possibly Stoke City around 1908-1911 period.
