I have not seen Oldham war time v United, Bolton 44-5 yes I have seen Rochdale 1945-6[not v MU] MU played Accrington in 1945-6 no programme that is the best I can offer but I am sure more knowledgeable collectors of the respective clubs you mentioned may well be able to give much more insight.

Bolton v Man U in 44/45 would only be for the war cup final wouldn't it?

Apart from that one match im fairly sure Bolton only issued from 45/46

Yes that is correct North War Cup Final which Bolton Wanderers won and they did produce from 1945-6.

For information, this was an earlier thread where I was enquiring specifically about 1944/5 season.

I am still not much further forward with information on Accrington and Oldham issues.

I believe Preston printed all seasons until 1945/6. I have seen PNE 39/40, 40/41,41/2

I don't think Preston issued 44/5.

There was another earlier thread which confirmed this but I can't find it at the moment.
