Portsmouth : Ray Crawford : Scored the goals to give Ipswich the Championship
Farnham : Peter Storey : Probably Hampshire’s hardest footballer, champion and serial winner

Several, but you won't or can't name them!!. I've already said I will update the list, and mentioned a couple that need adding. The only other real omission is Jim Goodchild.
The fact that that you know who some of the omissions are means that you have been studying this, even though you won't admit it.  I admire your never give up spirit.
And don't forget these arguments have been going on within this site for some while, and not always driven by me. I just challenge the sites somewhat predictable narrative, but have clearly shown most of the players at the top of the tree are from the Pompey area. |
Not really, i just saw the list and within about 30 seconds saw a number of Southampton based ommisions. Its your list and you're point you are proving so the burden of proof is on you. As things stand your list is subjective, very inaccurate, a number of omissions so not credible. Sorry about that. |  |

Oh yes, your 30 second list.
Elliott (38 PL apps), Jutkiewicz (28 PL apps)
And Brian Howard who has 0 PL appearances, and is from Winchester

There are other too. However the fact remains that a Hampshire born player with 1 bottom tier professional appearance in his career is more valid a member of your elite Hampshire players list than a player with 1000 international caps that isn't from Hampshire. Sorry about that. [Post edited 3 Mar 2020 15:45]

Who is the best footballer from Hampshire?
1. Brian Howard from Southampton, well actually Winchester with Zero top flight appearances
2. Peter Storey who was born in a Surrey hospital, but schooled and lived in a Hampshire urban area, then played almost 400 games for Arsenal and 19 for England.
Difficult I know |
1 Brian Howard
Peter Storey isn't from Hampshire. He was born in Surrey and raised in Surrey.
If the question was "who is the better the footballer?" Then clearly the answer would be different.
Sorry about that. Can you please remove him from your list along with the other players you've included who aren't from Hampshire.
You need to work with me here 130, i'm trying the help your list be more credible and factual. | |

The problem is that you have brought up a website that clearly states Ash is part of the Aldershot urban area,
Also, his school merged with the Robert Haining school in Mytchett, and what does your sister site say about Mytchett?
"Mytchett forms an eastern flank of the Farnborough/Aldershot Built-up Area, a conurbation straddling a small part of the two counties mentioned (Surrey and Hampshire) and Berkshire"
It would seem that kids going to Ash Manor school will be even more confused than previously, as they will be additionally mixing with kids from a town that 'straddles' Hampshire and Surrey as well as being brought up in a town that is part of an urban area of a famous Hampshire town. | |

The problem is that removing Storey from the list allows you to get another Soton lad into the top echelon of Hampshire players like Anderton, Chivers or Parker (all fine players btw).
Portsmuthians aren’t worried about this of course, because they already have 5 lads in the top bunch with another Portsmouth Urban area lad additionally included.
Storey would have certainly felt like a Hampshire lad, I guess the fairest way would be to ask him. | |

The problem is that you want it all to be nice and tidy, it isn't always so is it? Check out Lallana and Paul Rideout. You could easily make a claim that Lallana is essentially a Hampshire lad.
Check out the history of Ash.
"The making of Aldershot Camp has revolutionized the whole of this neighbourhood. The camp itself is in Hampshire, but ranges have been established in Ash parish, and houses in connexion with the camp have turned what were desolate heaths into a succession of straggling villages or even towns. Henley Park (q.v.) lies on the other side of the parish. It is one of the numerous parks formed in the Surrey bailiwick of Windsor Forest. Cobbett, the famous political and social reformer, farmed land at Normandy in this parish".
So, it appears that all those villages in Surrey were villages that sprouted out because of the growth of the Army Camp. ie a lot of those people had Aldershot employment connections, but presumably Surrey didn't want to let the land go to Hampshire, so allowed the hamlets and villages to form part of the Hants Urban area, although remaining in Surrey. No spin here, just facts. | |

Is Aldershot in Hampshire Yes or No?
Is Ash part of the Aldershot urban area Yes or No?
Just accept it's an anomaly, and if you know anything about the area, ie North Camp and surrounding, it's viewed as a bit of a dump, and presumably Surrey CC were quite happy for Aldershot to control the area and it's people. | |

Is Surman from Hampshire Y or N?
Rideout from Hants Y or N?
Tambling from Hants Y or N?
Is Bridge or Vokes from Southampton Y or N?
You obviously don't get how badly North Camp is perceived locally | |

You’re tragic. Although I’ve enjoyed your research of schools in Mychett and army camps in hants and Surrey today to desperately try and fail to prove your point. It’s just a shame that every day your precious thread gets ever more laughable.
Enjoy your evening. | |
