TITLE = Rothman's Football Yearbook (Annual) AUTHOR = Glenda Rollins, Jack Rollins (ed) PRICE = 17.99 pounds SIZE = 976 pages YEAR = Annual. Review for 1998-99 edition SOURCE = www.amazon.co.uk RATING = 4 stars
Perhaps the standard by which all other yearbooks should be judged. All
Football League clubs detailed, along with Scotland. Also includes amateur
level coverage, School Boys, Brit internationals, Euro league results,
World Cup, etc.
This work does not really give you a "feel" for the game, as it is
basically a statistical resource. However, as such, it does an excellent
job. The massive weight would come in handy if you had to defend yourself
against an assault by the Millwall firm or West Ham's ICF.
The individual player info is OK, limited to stats, but it's fairly
complete. All the photos are black-and-white. Basic stats on every game
played in the 4 Leagues are included.
Highly recommended, but you probably won't be purchasing on an annual
basis.
