Anybody aware of a website or a book that details the playing records of the Burton teams when they were in the football league from 1890-1910.

Looking specifically for appearances, goals, attendances etc.

I have the Association of Football Statisticians bound volumes for 1888-1898 and 1889 to 1908, which have what you're looking for. Don't know if they'll scan well as they're thick, squat, volumes. Anything specific you're looking for, or is it the full shebang?

It's hard to keep up with those Burton teams! My understanding from some previous research:

Burton Swifts- founder member of Division 2 in 1892.
Burton Wanderers elected to the league 1894. Not re-elected 1897
Burton United formed 1901 as amalgamation of Swifts/Wanderers
League members 1901–07, no re-elected 1907. Folded 1910.
