E&E Rich Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Some of you will know that I am in the process of creating the largest historical football club website in the country. www.eefconline.co.uk For one of my projects I am compiling tables that cover results, result dates, attendances and even postponements where I can find that out for Epsom's first team, reserves and youths and their opponents from 1918 to the present. It involves the input of around 350,000 cells of data so it is not a small project. Oh yes and I am also covering every game of the League Cups that Epsom have entered too. This is not just Epsom results, I have almost all of those, I am covering all teams in Epsom's division or cup competition. Once completed it would make a substantial archive and is obviously free to view. I am trying to fill in information for the Combined Counties League and whilst I have most of it, I have realised that the best way to do this is to get sight of the League Bulletins. I am currently reading through Isthmian League Bulletins from 1988-2006 that have been loaned to me and would like to do the same for the CCL Bulletins. I do have many of these already, but am missing the following: 2006/07 - all season 2007/08 - all season 2008/09 - all season 2009/10 - 1,22,29,40 2011/12 - 21 2012/13 - 4, and from 34 to end of season Someone somewhere must have held on to them! I have already tried lazarus but he had a computer issue last year and lost all of the old data. If anyone out there has electronic copies (or hard copies) of any of these, please can you drop me a line, either here or by PM please? I am also looking for old Suburban League Bulletins (1977/78 to 2011/12) and Southern Youth League Bulletins (1983/84 - 2011/12) if anyone has any. I would also provide a credit on the club website for those that are able to help. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E&E Rich Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 Thanks, I have PM'd you. It might be simpler to put my email address on here: richard.c.lambert@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E&E Rich Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 Thanks Mal I'm no longer able to edit the opening post but 2012/13 is now completed and no longer required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big J R Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Wish I could help Richard, but after my 'enforced' absence, I've lost loads and loads of bulletins. John R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosher Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Staggering that in this day and age with storage so cheap that people are still not backing up their vital data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beano_ATMFC Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I am also looking for old Suburban League Bulletins (1977/78 to 2011/12) and Southern Youth League Bulletins (1983/84 - 2011/12) if anyone has any. I would also provide a credit on the club website for those that are able to help. Give me a few hours... I'll be able to bung a few of these your way. I've pulled the complete Suburban League Bulletins for 2006-07 out of my email archive and I'm about 25% of the way through 2007-08. I should also have 2008-09 as a minimum too. I've also got some Southern Youth League bulletins from this period, although not a complete set. Have a look at your inbox in the morning - there should be something there.

E&E Rich Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 Staggering that in this day and age with storage so cheap that people are still not backing up their vital data. I never received that data originally, so couldn't back it up. However, thanks to the assistance provided by Mal Williams, Jackie Comer and Gareth Coates I have got nearly everything that I require for now and intend to place them all on the Epsom website for reference for any other potential historians. That might not be for a few weeks but it will enable access to these documents for the future. Again thanks to those who were able to help. I will produce a new update next week with the ones I am still missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E&E Rich Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Here's a quick update of what I still require, just in case anyone has any of these: 1977/78-2005/06 - All Suburban League 1983/84-2006/07 - All Southern Youth League CCL (Combined Counties League) - SL (Suburban League) - SYL (Southern Youth League) 2006/07 - CCL - all season 2007/08 - CCL - all season - SYL - 1,2,4,14,15,30 - SL - 21 2008/09 - CCL - 1,3,4,5 2009/10 - SYL - 24,32 - SL - 5 2010/11 - SYL - 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 - SL 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 2011/12 - SYL - from 5 to 30 inclusive, 33,34,35,any others after 36 - SL - from 5 up to end of season Thanks once again to all who have helped. If you have any of the earlier bulletins in hard copy only, that's fine too, as I would take pictures and create online versions for them. Finally, just to clarify a point that was raised, personal addresses and phone numbers that are on the electronic Bulletins will be deleted from the versions that I put online. I now have around 1,500 bulletins so it may take a while before this happens though! Please keep them coming to Richard.c.lambert@gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mal316 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 All of 2011/12 will be with you shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E&E Rich Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Thanks Mal. Can I just add to my list above SYL 2010/11 37 and onwards. I had wrongly assumed 36 was the last one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
