Description

Giltbrook, Nottinghamshire born inside forward Tom “Tex” Rickards started his football career with local junior club Giltbrook Villa in 1930 and played for Johnson & Barnes in 1931 before joining Second Division Notts County, making his Football League debut at Burnley in April 1933. Initially a fringe player at Meadow Lane, he broke into the first eleven in September 1935 after The Magpies’ relegation earlier that summer, and was part of their side that finished runners up in the Third Division (South) in 1936-37 in the days when only the Champions were promoted. In the summer of 1938 he joined Cardiff City after 27 goals in 124 appearances for County, and he scored 5 goals in 22 appearances for The Bluebirds before joining Midland League Scunthorpe & Lindsey United in the summer of 1939, immediately before the outbreak of the Second World War. After the conflict he joined Peterborough United in 1946 before his retirement.
