« on November 13, 2010, 12:02:43 am by retford rover »
sorry put this in the lucky pint section wrongly
techno fobe
new rovers book ideal christmas present Tony Bluff has re issued an upto date book of Rovers History, was published about 8 years ago, but the history of rovers season by season, but now out again and upto date
book priced at £24.99, will have them on supporters coach tommorrow(bus 1) or text me on 07961-727769 if you want one bringing into game.
if you remember the book used to have a white cover with all the old rovers kits on the sleeve.
you will not be able to buy in the club shop, because Nike will not let them sell it in there, also available in the Supporters club shop on matchdays(north stand community changing area) available also at WH Smiths and Waterstones i beleive.

They can be ordered from Amazon (though they're currently out of stock) or Waterstones Direct. Or from the publishers, Yore Publications.

I got my copy from Yore on Thursday. A much-needed addition to the Rovers' library as \"Donny\" needed to be brought up to date. There is, sadly, one huge error in the \"players appearances\" section where a page has been duplicated (and another omitted) meaning that about 70 players with names starting G and H do not appear.

But well worth the money and a really good Christmas present for a Rovers fan.

Incidentally, does anyone know why Nike will not let us stock them in the club shop? It is hardly a rival brand!

I hope they've employed a proofreader this time. The punctuation in the original version was so bad and/or bizarre it made parts of the book either unreadable or incomprehensible.
