Are there any publications or websites that detail each clubs fixtures in the different War League's and Cups?

I'm asking as most of you probably know my main collection is Everton vs Liverpool programmes in League and Cup games and I have every one back to 1950 at the moment and would like to extend that collection through the war years but don't have many details regarding the amount of times we played eachother during those times.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Jack Rollin's book Soccer At War has all the War Cup results in but not the results for the qualifying matches for the War Cup.

eg in 44/45 Bolton played 9 qualifying matches to get in the War Cup and then 11 matches in the War Cup proper.

It also just has the final tables for the war leagues but not the results.

Check out this brilliant Liverpool website, has full details of every Liverpool game.
http://www.liverweb.org.uk/archive.htm
Also be sure to check out the links to reserves results on that page, that'll give you details of Lancashire Senior Cup games between the sides.

Cheers sean, that does help with the dates of games but it unfortunately doesnt tell me which games were War League and which games were War Cup.
