Began his
junior career playing with Round Oak Steelworks FC, and moved up into the
Birmingham League with his local side, Cradley Heath FC in 1923, during

Tommy Smart
once more. Tate was appointed as their player-manager on 12 August 1936. A
broken neck in an FA Cup match against Moor Green FC ended his playing
career on 18 September 1937. |
