Arthur Stanley Sackville Redvers Trevor Boscawen Griffith "Bos" Trevis (born October 20, 1912 in Blackheath , † 1997 ) was an English football player .

Career

Trevis played for the Old Hill Amateurs in 1928 before joining West Bromwich Albion as an amateur in 1929 at the age of 17 . In August 1930 he played a junior selection game at local rivals FC Birmingham . In early 1931 he came on loan to the Birmingham Works League playing club Leamington Town ; previously he had played for two years as a center runner for the "Colt" team, a kind of youth team, from West Bromwich Albion. At an appearance in February 1931 against Rugby Town , Trevis was certified by the press as having "a powerful performance as a left wing runner". On his return to West Bromwich Albion he signed his first professional contract on April 18, 1931. In April 1932 he was part of the English squad at a Junior International against Scotland, the team was a selection of players from the Birmingham County Association . In the short term for George Mason as a middle runner in the team, the team in Tynecastle Park in Edinburgh was defeated in front of about 6,000 spectators with 0: 1 by a goal of the future national player Johnny Crum .

His only competitive appearance for the first team from West Bromwich dated on April 7, 1934, when he replaced Jimmy Murphy in a game in the Football League First Division in a 2-2 draw against Liverpool FC on the right wing runner position . His performance was rated “outstanding” by the press and a correspondent noted of the game: “None of the players were outstanding, but Trevis made a promising debut on the runner-up as a substitute for Murphy.” His former club Leamington received after the First Division debut "a little recognition" from West Bromwich. As a result, Trevis had to be content with games for the reserve team again, in a game in January 1936 he was praised for his "duel behavior and his ball distribution". Meanwhile, he was not only responsible for press reports on a sporting level; in January 1935 he was sentenced to £ 2 for failing to apply the brakes on his car parked on a slope and the driverless vehicle then hit a pedestrian.

In July 1936, he moved to Chester FC , a good 100 kilometers northwest of the Welsh border, in the Third Division North . At Chester he was retrained from center runner to outer runner and was under coach Alex Raisbeck on the first nine matchdays of the 1936/37 season in the team (eight wins, one draw; one goal in a 6-0 win against AFC Barrow ) before beating Hartlepools United suffered a broken leg just above the ankle. In January 1937, the correspondent for Star Green 'Un stated : “The team has never recovered from the failure of the right wing runner Trevis. This player broke a bone in his ankle in Hartlepools and since then weaknesses in defense and attack have developed. Trevis' injury took a long time to heal but he has resumed full training and it is hoped that he will be fit for the cup game. ”In the following 1937/38 season Trevis made a total of 16 league appearances and made a total of seven Cup games in the Third Division North Cup (4 games) and Welsh Cup (3 games), he filled every position in the runner row, as a substitute behind the regular formation John McCreary - Trevor Walters - Harold Howarth . Trevis had problems to find his form again after the injury, in the reserve team of Chester in the Cheshire League he was increasingly called up both as a right half-forward and as a center forward and is said to have scored "many goals". In his only appearance as a right half-forward in the first team in January 1939, he was without a goal.

In February 1939 he moved to Worcester City in the Southern League , for Chester he had only been used three times during the season. The reason for the change was also his wish to be closer to his family and Worcester had a short-term need for the right outside runner position after the failure of regular player Jim Dodds and his replacement Roy Tranter. At the end of the season he was granted a free transfer by Chester, which meant that his registration with the Football League was abandoned. Trevis did not return to the Football League, but ended his career.

After the Second World War, Trevis appeared as a coach at FC Redditch in the Birmingham Combination around 1950 .

Bos Trevis could claim for a long time to have the longest registered name in the Football League, meanwhile this record has at least been surpassed by Charlie Oatway . His father, a staunch supporter of the Conservative Party , named him after Dudley's party candidate , Arthur Sackville Trevor Griffith-Boscawen .
