Thames Ironworks

edit

I have removed the references to Thames Ironworks as there is no evidence that he played for the club. The only reference to him at TIW seems to be the Joyce book, but this is not supported by other sources. I've had confirmation from both Steve Marsh and John Powles that there is no indication he was at the club. Watford FC Archive previously included the club on his profile. The maintainer is Trefor Jones who wrote the Watford Who's Who book, so the website can be considered as a 'live' version of that book. Having spoken to him he has now removed TIW from the profile. As an additional point, Trefor also gave me a fair amount of detail about where his DoB came from, so the Joyce book is wrong on that front too. Nzd (talk) 17:07, 5 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
