| This
list of players for the early days of Mossley AFC is no small part
of the overall story but the early newspaper records of Mossley
Juniors and particularly the first season as Park Villa were especially
sparse prior to 1909 and the name change to Mossley AFC but this
is my attempt at as full a list as possible based on the information
available of the players who appeared prior to the club becoming
professional in 1919. Maybe you had a grandad? |
