It's an A-Z, including all players who have played since the club joined the Southern League in 1949, plus all the managers, chairmen, influential back-room staff, and key figures (including some players) from pre-1949.

A bit like the rageonline database then? Except we'll have to pay for it, obviously. On which subject, I've replied to your PM...

Similar, but with more info and more narrative and because it's paper (remember that) it might be easier to use when the internet's down.

Seen the PM - I'll try and do something about it tomorrow.

Can I be in it? I used to be a programme seller in the late 60's early 70's.

I support A-Ro's inclusion - not only was he a programme seller (so was I) but his brother goes fishing with a chap whose Mum used to be landlady to a number of young players in the 70s.

If that isn't 'influential', I'm a chinaman.

Apparently the publishers are in discussion with Justsport about them stocking it.

Meanwhile I've just taken delivery of more copies if anyone is desperate for one.
