Title: Football club geeks ONLY need apply. Post by: tikay on April 01, 2016, 11:53:49 AM A good friend of mine from Next Door has a website called "Football Club Historical Database", or "FCHD". It is what it says, a database of Football Clubs, but it's not just the Premiership & Sky Bet League Teams, it's all (or most) organised Teams & Leagues, over 8,000 of them, from Arsenal to Armthorpe Miners Welfare, from the Premier League to Gloucestershire County League. If you are a football geek, especially non-league clubs, it's worth a look. It's completely free to view & use. He also has a section of part-completed data, & he needs help from anyone with that sort of info... I would also appreciate help on any other senior league, especially if you have details for the whole history of a league. Updates on cup details, any amendments to the club histories, or any other relevant information will also be gratefully received and acknowledged You can find the site by going to http://fchd.info/ He's a good guy, but not currently a blonde, but if you have any questions or suggestions, I'll suggest he joins blonde & posts here. Thanks. Title: Re: Football club geeks ONLY need apply. Post by: TightEnd on April 01, 2016, 11:59:05 AM ffs.

You do actually know (virtually) FCHD, he's the guy who does the WSOP Updates Next Door. Lives in West Cornwall, & is a big fan of the North East Cornwall League, or somesuch. He has all those wonderful "small ground" photos too, I think. His real name is Richard, but we call him "Barny", as when he plays poker, we can't get rid of the bugger.

Looks like he's not included any of the Full Member Cup results but has included the Associate Member Cup. Title: Re: Football club geeks ONLY need apply.
