** !! FINISHED !! **

BreakingNewsThe news that we’ve all been waiting for – I have completed ALL of the basic KF images for this site! All 2462 players are now included on here, with a few variations to boot! It’s been a long time coming, but with the help of mainly Peter, Matt, Alan and Mark we’ve managed to get the job done! My heartiest congratulations go out to us all on this fantastic achievement!

Now the race is on to find all of the variations and replace some of the really crap quality ones that I have used. I’ve already begun this process and have today replaced 30+ using far better scans from eBay where there are some really nice examples. Now is the time for all of those of you out there who have variations to come forward with them; scan them as straight as possible at 300dpi and then CONTACT ME.

Come on, chaps – LET’S DO THIS!! 🙂

Cabinet Team card of Huddersfield Town appears on eBay!

HTAFC Pinnace teamAs you will be well aware, these little beauties are rare. We are talking hen’s teeth, here… Rocking horse… errr… manure! And the vendor clearly knows this, hence the high asking price. It looks to be in excellent condition and is a Buy-It-Now item so, if you’re feeling wealthy, steam in and fill your boots!

Click this eBay link to see it.

Edit: SOLD!! At significantly less than the asking price.

6 more knocked off my total!

1066_Brennan_BatleyNUMy grateful thanks are due to Davie Rennie who has helped me to reduce my ‘Needs’ list by half a dozen.

Just the 599 to go now, although I know that I will never ever complete the set because I will never own – or probably even see – a Hugh Gallacher card.

Nevertheless, I have to keep plugging away. 😉

Bristol City biographies added

2273I have finally got around to completing the biographies of the Bristol City players as sent to me by researcher Michael Postles. Click the image here to see their gallery.

As a footnote, this is the last set of such biographies that I will be doing, mainly due to the lack of response from visitors to this site. Michael has spent – and is still spending! – many, many hours digging through his sources and I, in turn, have spent many hours adapting his information to suit this website. But it seems that no-one is interested enough to click on the cards to learn about the men themselves, so the whole concept dies here with The Robins.

Perhaps one day in the future Michael will publish his work and interested parties will be able to have hard copy for themselves. 😉

Undated Liverpool team card turns up

1923 LIVERPOOL team cardMy grateful thanks are due to Gerard Scully who has supplied me with an image of an undated Liverpool team card. As with a few others in the set, it’s identical to the 1920-21 issue.

Nice find, Gerard!

Cheers, Adrian! 👍

Brentford biographies now added

0821I have finished uploading all of the mini biographies of Brentford players that Michael Postles has sent me. As with each of the other teams covered so far there are several cards with no biographical details which, I assume, will be picked up when they appear on the roster of one of their other clubs.

1923 CHELSEA team groupPerusing the Vintage Football (Soccer) Cards Group on Facebook I came a cross a card highlighted by Carl Wilkes showing the 1923 Chelsea side, a card that appears to be one of a kind. I have included it in the gallery here together with Carl’s watermark.

Bradford player profiles added

1520I have now added the player biographies for Bradford Park Avenue as supplied by Michael Postles. As with previous teams, there are gaps which I presume will be filled as those players appear on cards for other teams.
