Alphabet tag - Player's first names in sequence going through the alphabet.
Initiator names a Town player from any era whose first name starts with the letter A.
Whatever letter that player's surname ends with (say 'r' in the example below), a TWTD poster whose username starts OR ENDS with 'R' has to give the next player name (i.e. first name beginning with 'B')
Player's names can't be repeated in the thread, and see how long it goes on for?
So, if I say...
Allan Hunter
...we're waiting for a user whose name starts with an 'R' to give us a player whose first name starts with a 'B'.
Any good?
Edit - rule changes:
Poster's username can now start OR END with the last letter of the previous player.
To allow for awkward starting letters for players' first names, the following letters can occur anywhere within the player's name: Q, X, Z (other's could be added if necessary)
----------
Player chain so far:
Allan Hunter > Brian Talbot > Carlos Edwards > Darren Ambrose > Emyr Hughes > Frank Yallop > Gavin Johnson > Hermann Hreidarsson > Ian Westlake > Jermaine Wright > Kevin Wilson
Users (only one go per loop):
NthQldITFC > ringwoodblue > Tangledupin_Blue > SlippinJimmyJuan > eireblue > PhilsAngels > Nthsuffolkblue > EuanTown > flatlettuce > You_Bloo_Right
Next poster: Username starts or ends with 'N'
Next player: First name starts with 'L' [Post edited 2 Jan 2023 13:01]

In the context of the game?
I could’ve joined in with Harbey, however, with Johnson, you’re back in play yourself! | |

Was thinking this Geoff. You, Glassers and myself will need Town to tempt Henning Berg out of retirement. |
I have done my research and there is one player in the modern era whose name ends in G that has played for us, and he barely featured.
So unless there is anyone who has an encyclopaedic knowledge of players from Ye Olden Days or academy players who never got near the first team, we have no chance. |  |

Don’t worry this is just the practise round, it is starting to get quite exciting, especially now, since NthQldITFC, hasn’t quite made it clear if there any limits on how frequently a poster can go during one round of the alphabet.
So we are all waiting to see if NthQldITFC, will swoop in and grab the points for H, or will someone else manage to get in quick. |  | | |

No repeat posters within the same alphabet cycle I'm afraid, but if we get to Z and back to A all are back in play! I'm going to stand firm on this one; I've already given in to easily on the last rule change. I am firm. I think. For now. | |

Irvin Gernon.
I like this game!
EDIT: Just seen the "no repeat posters" rule so we are still on Hermann then! [Post edited 22 Dec 2022 13:54]

Does Liam Manning count as I don't believe he actually made a first team appearance? | |

Dinning only made 7 appearances, that is within the boundaries of barely featured. | |

DInning, Harding, Armstrong, Clegg. I guess Manning doesn't count but does Klug? | |
