A reprint of the Official History of the Bluebirds - would y

Mon Nov 21, 2011 8:25 am

Along with two other City fans, I've been talking to the publisher of the superb Official History of the Bluebirds about doing a follow up to cover the seasons since it was published in 1992.

The publisher is certainly interested and it's beginning to look like we can make a start with a view to something coming out in autumn 2013, but, in the mean time, I have been asked to try and get some sort of idea as to what the reaction would be to a reprint of the original (which covered the club's history until the end of the 1990/91 season) being done.

It might be that any reprint would be available pretty quickly if there was sufficient interest in it, so can I ask if you would consider getting one - speaking as someone who has got a dog eared original which is now falling apart, I'd definitely be interested in one.

I have long since lost mine Bob and would surely get another if available. :ayatollah:

I'm pretty sure I've still got the original in pristine condition, locked away somewhere, so I'd prefer the updated version.
