Biography of Pseudonym Minty
HERITAGE NO : 597 Minty by Alex Service Minty is an obvious pseudonym. Things were particularly bad during the Second World War in terms of playing personnel, who could be posted anywhere in the country at a moment's notice. Some had to travel large distances to play if they were fortunate enough to have a weekend pass. The Saints managed to continue during this time, however, yet one match at Featherstone, on 1st January 1944 proved to be especially problematical, as the famous local journalist Premier wrote in the St. Helens newspaper a week later: "Whereas there were enough players hanging round the clubhouse door to provide two teams against Wigan a week ago, there were less than half the number anxious for a game on New Year's Day at Featherstone. At the last minute, three outsiders who have not assisted the team before made up the thirteen, two forwards and a wingman. The forwards weren't bad. One of them used his head very effectively." Our man Minty played in the number ten jersey that day. Was he the man described in such encouraging terms by Premier? Alas, we will never know. Suffice to say we are grateful to this person for stepping into the breach in such circumstances. Incidentally, the score was Featherstone Rovers 30 St. Helens 0. Please note his date of birth is notional.
