Mossley AFC Players 1903 - 1919
| 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? |
