Are there any digital copies of these available.

Would love to spend some time researching while in isolation, I'd planned to go to British Library during Easter Holidays but of course since this has happened we are now in isolation and the Library is shut and their collection isn't digitialised

Particularly interested in the careersof Jimmy Wilde, Alex Lafferty and Digger STanley and their opponents..

Thanks, I see some Sporting Life's are on the newspaper archive so might check them out.

If prewarboxing has anything digitised would be good or in excel format for results themselves I guess.

Trying to do some british ratings from that era too :box:
