David Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Callum Wilson went to Tamworth on loan before joining Bournemouth, then onto Newcastle. Not sure what this proves, or why I even Googled it. But now you know. whiteroseram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Apparently in 1337 a man called John le White junior was fined 2d for “evacuating his bowels to the abomination of neighbours and passers-by". So there you have it. Who says nothing of any note happens in Tamworth. jono, IslandExile and DarkFruitsRam7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This statue is just outside Tamworth station. That’s about the limit of our claim to fame apart from the Robin Reliant and the Tamworth pig.? jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've lived in tamworth from birth You’ve ruined the image now for anyone not familiar with Tamworth by mentioning Jewsons. I deliberately didn’t say that Tamworth station is a 1960’s monstrosity in the hope that some may conjure up this image of a quaint medieval town. ? dcfcreece1601 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What amazing times these must have been. I live near Queenhithe in London which Alfred the Great used as the docks when repopulating London 30 years earlier. How had the great Roman walled city of London come to have been abandoned? If it weren't for Alfred, would we nowadays be thought part of Scandinavia with our proud Viking heritage?
