I have got a suggestion. Just read about the History of Tamworth Castle and noticed its our 10th Season. Out of those 10 seasons who would you class as the best players to ever play for us in both 1st team and reserves?
Thinking about it, we have had some really good players Very Happy

We'll keep having a go at you until you identify yourself, then again when we know who you are we'll probably still have a go Twisted Evil

Top Players in no order

Tommo - Skill, Good finisher, Brainy player. Arguably the best player in Tamworth history.
Preccy - Skill, Pace, Good finisher, Could become the best player.
Fish - Pace, strength, Tackle, Unplayable on his day.sometimes passing lets him down.
Bobby - on his day was fantastic. Strength in tackle, passing. Discipline bad though
Damian - Clever player, good passer, could finish, Suprisingly very good defender.
Fringey - very similar to Tommo & Damian + great free kicks.
Macca - So much ability, an all rounder.
Jimmy G - Mr reliable. Never in headlines but a player to rely on and the first on team sheet.
Dave - Fast, Good finisher.
Frosty (For being there from the start)

Slim obviously knows a bit of Castle history so am more intrigued on who he is? Which Bobby slim, Atkins or Grewcock? By the way flattered to be on your list and yours TD, am compiling mine at moment, might go for a Castle 'legends' as well as there are many stalwarts at the club.

Loving the worst ten TD, Les was class and the lad from Bonds, if its the one who came last year was shocking! Also as i never really played with him i am asking - should Barney be on that list?

Tommo - The clue is in the name mate FLAPPER Barnes!!!! Very Happy

Fair enough mate Embarassed

But in my defence there are probably many who could be given the name Flapper and i thought he was called Barney because he was born in the stone ages the same as Frosty was born in the ice age Very Happy

Think i know who Slimjim is but he has never been that complimentary about me ever but i am going to investigate further before attempting to reveal him. Knowing Bobby, Damian and Dave (Underwood i think) limits the options of who he is. And before anyone says anything its not me as i would never put Bobby in my top ten unless it was a top ten knockouts list Razz

Some people have got a very weird outlook on the top ten players in castle history you are naming people that were playing in div 5 and 6 hardly makes them fantastic players surely you should be looking at longer serving players that have actually achieved something i.e players from the double winning side,glascote nursing cup winners etc so people like grim,bobby,damon etc shouldn't even be considered cause really they weren't the best if people are honest my choice would be in no particular order

Squidge
Tommo
Griff
Fringe
Me
Fish
Shaggy
Macca
Dolan
Precky
Jimmy G

And then there are a few coming into that category now in

Marv
Mike
Colin
John Jo
All quality players that will surely replace some people on the list above in the near future
