I am a quite keen on collecting the Arsenal LCC progs and tickets (although near impossible to find so only have a few) even though it became a reserve tournament from 60s onwards. Your site is magic. Format and content look quality. Keep it up as you will have at least one regular visitor. If you could extend it eventually to the mid 70s when the professional participation ended then I would be in heaven

Happy to help you with any Arsenal info you may require.

Thanx for the feedy back.

Started 1910 also.

Will only be going as far as the War to begin with.

Any particular year do you want seen and i will concentrate on that.

Cheers Andy.

Hi Andy,

Where did you get all your information from?

To collate all the fixtures must have been a phenomenal effort so for that well played.

I have been in touch with the Orient club historian in the past and he provided me with a 100% accurate list of all fixtures involving Orient.

If you would like me to forward the Orient list I have, let me know.

Obtaining all Orient's LCC programmes is also a dream of mine, foolish though it may be.

That is top class even though I would have no interest in London clubs. Very easy to navigate and reading the newspapers some great little stories.....

Well done.

Im a bit of an OCD muppet.
It happened when i was trying to reasearch "Bobby Moore" needless to say......."The West Ham supporters on this site ARE NO F$&^$ng HELP WHAT SO EVER".
So i trailed the net and found that the "Bobby Moore" site was incorrect.
So after studying some programmes, i found a lot of photos at the time where from The Ilford Recorder, so i enquired and found old copyies of these newspapers were stored at Redbridge Library, so i went to London and trauled through their papers collecting info.
After a while i came to a halt and decided i would start on something else, something NOT covered on the Net and due to the lack of info on The LCC in the early days, i decided on that.
Now my OCD head is very sceptical about info on the net after my Bobby Moore experience, so i decided all my info would be gathered from Newspapers of the time, then people can see for themselves, that the info i have gathered is in BLACK and WHITE and from the days they happened.
Its very time consuming, as trying to find the actual dates on which the games were played was a bloody nightmare to begin with.
Some papers hardly mention the LCC where as others give match reports, so its a long hard slog but me and my MENTAL HEAD are getting there.

Afternoon All.

Steady progress.

But would like to add photos.

If anyone would like to send me scans of photos of any of the matches or Team photos for the years 1909-1939 of any teams involved, it would be fantastic.

Fingers crossed. Many Thanx.

Hi.
Over the last couple of years many things have changed in my life.
I have not been on here very much, my collecting has come virtually to a stand still and several sites, I was building have been neglected.
I am now getting my life back to some sort of order and I will be updating several of my sites and trying to begin to complete them, that includes this one.
Many thanks. Andy.
