Guess Who? The Notts County Edition

[CliftonMagpie]

I’ll be posting a new round tomorrow, sometime between 2 and 4. It’s more likely to be closer to 4, so make sure to check in at 2. If I haven’t posted within about half an hour, it will be closer to 4.

Round 17:

Clue: Born and bred in England, I am versatile on the pitch, capable of playing as a forward or an inverted winger. I am a product of my hometown’s academy and have had numerous appearances throughout my career. The pinnacle of my experience has been playing in League One. Upon my arrival at Notts County, I was hailed as a significant signing.

Is it Tony Battersby?

[Fan of Big Tone]

Is it Tony Hackworth?

[CliftonMagpie]

Neither are correct, sorry Tone!

Junior Morias ,a chance to laugh at me?

[CliftonMagpie]

Why would I, laugh? It's incorrect but it's a smart guess @super_ram.

I'll give it a go @CliftonMagpiethough I don't expect to excel but as you say ,it's meant to be a bit of fun and I think a lot of Notts fans are in need of cheering up going by the reactions after yesterday's game.They can have a laugh at my attempts if it lifts their spirits

So many Notts fans were really down and upset after last Saturday's match and I'm not being facetious .I found out that Junior wasn't born in England after I posted,so it wasn't too bad a guess.

Jodi Jones? I know Malta play him up front sometimes. 

[Fan of Big Tone]

@CliftonMagpie are you saying this player has never played above league 1?

Is it Vadain Oliver?

Yes, that's correct. Also, Vadaine Oliver is incorrect too.

[Fan of Big Tone]

I was going to say Callum Roberts but I don’t think he’s played in League One has he?

[CliftonMagpie]

@Fan of Big Tone No, he hasn't. It's not Cal Roberts.

A further clue is that the owner of the club at the time was his biggest fan.

@CliftonMagpie Is it Lewis Alessandra?

Following the 17th round, Tony has widened his lead to 2 points. I’ll inquire with the gaffer about posting a bonus round featuring a photo of a footballer (who may not be associated with Notts). I’ll then let you know when the 18th round is scheduled.

Points Table:

@Fan of Big Tone - 7
@Fozzy - 5
@super_ram - 2
@KB1862 - 1
@liampie,- 1
@Piethagoram- 1

Bonus Round:

Who's this? No clues... Try to guess first, and hints will follow.  

[super_ram]

Alan Hinton ?

[super_ram]

If it's not I would say Bobby Moore.

Or is it royalty?It may come to me clearer in my sleep.

Neither of these are correct.  

[super_ram]

I have a feeling the picture may be a bit deceptive but I'm going to sleep on it.

George Best?

[CliftonMagpie]

No, it isn’t George Best. The hint I’d offer is that I’ve never seen this individual appear under the age of 40.
