                    The Bryan Cooney book that came out last year was an enjoyable read too.

                        I said similar when in the "fit you reading" thread. Poor quality

                          The Heritage Trust site had a comprehensive list at some point, but I’m ****ed if I can find it.

                          The Crampsey book Final Edition (a Keith Murray Publishing publication around 1991) is often forgotten.

                              Its in the collection.

                              So far the missing items

                              General wise - Aberdeen a Complete Record- Jim Rickaby and Here We Go were two I didn't have. (now bought HWG)

                              Autobiography wise Leighton, Strachan and McLeish (Now bought Leighton)

                              Ebay is great
