Left-winger who was a reliable back-up player in the early
1950s, but could never quite make it as a true regular in the

Darron Tyrer says: not enough credit has been given to a man who
gave so much to the game of football.
John Cawthorne says: Arthur Tyrer began his playing career with
Mossley in the Cheshire League and was transferred to Leeds United
for a then club record 2,000 fee in September 1950. There is a
photo of him on Mossleyweb where there is a
complete A-Z of post war Mossley players. You will also find names
like Howard Wilkinson, Roy Ellam, Peter Barnes and Russell Doig who
were involved at various times with both Mossley and Leeds
United.
j douglas says: when I saw Arthur play in the late fifties early
sixties he played winghalf liked to stroke the ball about the shots
had a decent side then with decent cup run losing to Stoke
Roland Brade says: where is Arthur now? He is urgently wanted
for the first match between Aldershot and Accrington Stanley on 9th
August 2003 at Aldershot
Tony Sharp says: I spoke to Arthur on 23rd June and he is doing
well. He has moved to Hayling Island but is looking forward to
meeting up with his former team mates on 9th August. A lovely guy
to speak to with some great anecdotes from his playing history.
