Trust In Yellow’s 30 Season’s Of Non League Football

Trust In Yellow are making great progress on their latest project in documenting the full history of Southport FC’s 30 years of non-league football.

Intended for release to coincide with the 30 year anniversary of the club’s first non-league game against South Liverpool in 1978, the Trust are to launch the book in August 2008.

Following on from the incredible success of “The Sandgrounders – The complete League History of Southport F.C.” by Geoff Wilde and Mike Braham, published in 1995, this new book will effectively fill in the gaps of Southport FC’s more than 125 years of history.

Filled with manager and influential player biographies and records of every single non-league match played to date (including full line-up, substitution and goalscoring records), the book is expected to be a big hit amongst supporters of the club, the local community, and football statisticians alike.

Charting the ups and downs, successes and failures of the Haig Avenue club, there will be additional in-depth features on the Championship successes of the 1992/93 and 2004/2005 seasons, along with the club’s historic Wembley visit in 1998.

With contributors including Southport FC Chief Executive Haydn Preece, co-author of the “The Sandgrounders” Geoff Wilde and 'Port personalities past and present, Trust In Yellow would like to invite people to subscribe early to the book, to ensure the ultimate publication of what they know will be an incredible story.

The book will be a limited edition and we are expecting to retail it at around £15.
