Charles Henry Tickle (late 1883[3] – 1960) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Small Heath, which was renamed Birmingham during his time at the club.[1]
Tickle was born in Kings Norton, which was then in north Worcestershire but has been part of Birmingham since 1911,[3] and brought up in the Bournbrook district.[4] He worked as a stencil-cutter,[5] and played football for local clubs Selly Oak St Mary's and Bournbrook, before he signed professional forms for Small Heath, as the Birmingham club were then called, in January 1902.[6]
