Neil_Ormston Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Might be of interest to some on here that I’ve just completed a major update to the memorabilia section of my website, having finally got around to archiving my own pre-war Wire programme collection. This now has over 1,100 images of over 350 pre-war Wire programmes, including 312 complete versions. Always interested in adding to my collection, or to obtaining more images, so drop me a note if you can help. Meanwhile, enjoy those that are available here: https://www.warringtonrugbyheritage.com/memorabilia-programmes For more information on the Rugby League Record Keepers' Club please visit our official website at www.rugbyleaguerecords.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Wire Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Great work, well done ntw. A labour of love, no doubt. If you get round to updating the all-time player list that would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be updated to the end of the 2018 season as soon as I get chance (will post back on here when done); it’ll be complemented with an update / completion of the results of every competitive game Wire have ever played.

Having done this myself with the Doncaster ones, its a labour of love. But, the players I've spoken to about it love the fact that they have their number in a bit of the clubs history. I did spot your site appear on Facebook the other morning, and had a look www.donsstats.co.uk - Full results and player stats for Doncaster RLFC from 1951 to the current day.

Hopping Mad Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 What a fabulous resource, for now and future generations. Superb work. Here's a thing: I dipped in at random, and came up with a programme editorial for a Warrington versus Leigh game in September, 1932. It begins: Today we open our first team home fixtures with a visit from our old rivals from Leigh. Unfortunately, things have not gone too well financially with our friends from Mather Lane during the past few seasons... Plus ca change, eh? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheshire Setter Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Fantastic work. I'd love to see the programmes from 1993/94 just for a bit of nostalgia, as it was my first season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
