#OTD 9 November 1889

The amazing story of Tinsley Lindley.

Notts County were a player short for their Football League match against Aston Villa, so they borrowed Tinsley Lindley from local rivals Nottingham Forest.

Lindley was a remarkable all-rounder. He scored a hat-trick 16, won 13 England caps (scoring 14 goals) and also played first-class cricket for Nottinghamshire.

The match finished 1–1, but Villa objected on the grounds that Lindley was not properly registered with County. The League upheld the complaint, deducted a point from County and fined them £5.

Lindley, who was also a barrister, then represented County at an appeal, arguing that the club had been punished twice.

Unfortunately, accounts differ on the outcome of the appeal, but County's end-of-season record shows no points deduction. The fine appears to have been increased.

In a reply, I provide a link to an article on Lindley's remarkable life, Nottingham connections and the recent successful effort to provide him with a memorial.

If the world is getting a little too much may I recommend the inexplicably obsolete word ‘latibulating’, from the 17th century? To latibulate is to find a cosy corner somewhere and hide in it.

A Kiwi version of the famous song 'This Land Is Your Land' by Woody Guthrie. Apparently part of an album produced for the Auckland Archaeological Society as a farewell gift for Roger and Kay Green in 1967 inspired by the singalongs that they had after their digs.

New official Zoom Unit video for new release. Get out on the dancefloor!
