@trevordelaney HI Trevor
Wondering if you could help, there was a player transferred from Manningham to Keighley in the early 1900s by the name of T. Battersby, do you know if his name was Thomas Battersby?
many thanks

Hi Darren
Fisher Battersby transferred to Keighley from Manningham 1900-01. He joined Manningham 18 August 1898 from Allerton NU and was an "A" teamer. Made 7 first team appearances one try.

@trevordelaney Hi Trevor
Thank you for the information, was Fisher a nickname, or his real name?
He played 1 game for Keighley at fullback on Nov 23rd at home to Sowerby Bridge,
I have found the name of another ex-Manningham player who played for Keighley in the same year C. Clarkson - He played his first game Jan 4th vs Dewsbury (Away), he made a few more appearances, and was a forward,
Do you have a name for him please?
many thanks
Darren
Hi Darren
I only have C Clarkson - he came from Silsden. Fisher was his real name as far as I'm aware.
Best wishes
Trevor
Hi Trevor
I have found 3 names for whom C. Clarkson could be, they are all from Silsden
Charles Clarkson who would be 25/26
Cyrus Clarkson
Colin Clarkson
Not sure which if any of these he could be, but hopefully we will find out.
