Its' not a very good plug (certainly not as good as the one on inflatable armadillo's thread).

Where do we get one, what is the price etc?

I've just copy'n'pasted what I was asked to

It's out next month but I haven't been told the price.

And if you contact the nice people at Phillip Howard Books in Roundhay (0113 225 9797) I'm sure they will be able to save you a copy.

I hope they asked TVOC to proof read it & check the stats before publication.

I thought it was a description of one his cuttings collections.

Pfft, as if they'd do that (and there should be no need to as the club has the archives.)

Sounds like my kind of book. I'll look forward to getting my sticky little mitts on a copy.

Biggest this that and the next sounds interesting but I'd swap it for a comprehensive list of every match and every Leeds player records instead. Perhaps they'll be in there also, in part at least. Good times.

No doubt you'll make your mitts sticky when reading it.

The club has got a wealth of material from the earliest days of the club at HQ.I remember when Ken Dalby was researching what was to be his last book in 1988 taking me and my old fella up and showing us some bound programmes from the late 1890's onwards.They should still exist.Tvoc'd be in his element with that kind of stuff!!

Do you know, you are a class act Puig... I am so pleased that tvoc did not dignify your post with a reply!
