Hi there,
I came across this page whilst trying to find my Uncle, John Hickson.
My Dad, Geoff Hickson sadly passed away in Cape Town on the evening of 29 September 2026.
He played for a Stoke City many years ago.
MHDSRIP
Kind Regards
Karen Mulder (nee Hickson)

PS : If you have any contact details for John, please could you let me know. I think he also played football.
Thank you so much

Hello there,

Heard on the grapevine that my late Uncle John may have played for Bury FC - unfortunately he died whilst serving in the Royal Navy in WW2 - can you shed any light please?

Many thanks, Janet H.

QUINN, MICK

Micky was a lovely man; a typical Liverpudlian humour (I come from Birkenhead so know what a Liverpudlian is like) and very good goalscorer. He was always after a goal and, indeed, I think he injured himself going for a goal but hit a goalpost instead - for Portsmouth???

OSGOOD, KEITH

Keith was a year older than me and I remember being in school auditorium at Worple Road when it was announced Keith would be going to the U.S to play. Was friend to both Keith and David, good to hear they’re doing well. I moved to U.S in 1970 so lost touch with my mates, Leslie Parks, Ian Savage, Micky Moore and so on.

KNIGHTON, KEN

Updated: 01-08-26

My Dad, Selwyn Warren, was secretary of the Oldham and District Referees. He talks about Ken doing extra training when the referees were training at Boundary Park. Later, in about 75/76 Dad was refereeing a Central Leage match on Friday evening. Ken had given permission for me to come along. I spent the evening watching and running round the nearly empty stands. Dad still speaks very highly as a footballer and really fantastic player / coach to work with.
