If so, I’ll see your AAA and raise you with Wilf Walsh. Apparently, he played one game for us in the 1946 - 47 season. My trump card is that Wilf Walsh was Welsh. Wilf Walsh was Welsh and played in the War. Tamworthram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dordogne-Ram Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 1 hour ago, Geriatram said: How many on here saw Martin Mcdonnell? Several times, most memorably v. Liverpool at home on 15/10/57. Rams won 2-1 with goals from Dennis Woodhead and wee George Darwin, attendance 22,631, watched from the boys pen. Defending the Normanton End, Martin McDonnell and Liverpool legend Billy Liddell , both very hard courageous players, went for a 50/50 tackle and ended up being injured. We were used to seeing ex - paratrooper McDonnell doing acrobatics when getting up from tackles, but not on this occasion! Both players spent the remainder of the match holding each other up on the wing - no substitutes then! Others have mentioned both Reg Ryan and (South African) Alf Ackerman who I saw play regularly. And who can forget seeing George Darwin skipping across the BBG mud wrong footing opponents repeatedly with delightful back heels.....! Thanks @Maltyfor triggering a few memories, even if some were off topic! 48 hours, Malty and Ellafella 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would suggest that, say, the name Philip Pullman is alliterative and I don’t think it is. This explanation is better I think ... “Alliteration is about repetition of sound, not simply of letters written on the page.
