Talk:Billy Bridgewater

1888–1889
In the stats in Bluffs book he is named as scorer for Doncaster during this period, including 17th Nov 1888 and 30 March 1889. Hexthorpe Wanderers were a minor side, which he did play for later, so I am thinking it makes more sense that a move to Hexthorpe at this time is unlikely and a mistake.

 * It comes from the rather flexible rules at the time regarding player registration where a player could play for an amateur team whilst also registered with a professional one - reserve players often turned out for other teams in the local area when they weren't part of the first team. Clareborough and Kirkham have him playing for Hexthorpe in 88–89 and his first spell at Doncaster from November 1888 to October 1889 so those spells must have overlapped - I've amended the info box to reflect that.
