Bits and Bats 5 is now being run down.
From this link page you can access:
(1) The Yorkshire Combination 1909-1914
Notes on formation, final tables for 1910-1914
seasons and an apology to whoever was good
enough to
send information
I've somehow managed to lose.
(2) A snapshot look at the past in the Scottish
League.
(3) Clubs' notes - a few details on the
history of Northern non-league clubs, written
in 2009.
(4) The Northern Alliance 1890-1939, 1979-2011
and some seasons only 1939-1979
I would like to thank Patrick Brennan, whose research has made possible most
of the early league tables and history
of the competition. More of Mr. Brennan's
research can be found via his website at www.donmouth.co.uk/localhistory/northernalliance. I also wish to thank Paul for providing some final tables for the
Northern Alliance from the 1970s.
There are still a number of gaps in the coverage
of the Northern Alliance, notably the period
1948-1972 and anyone who has any information
about this period is urged to contact the
site so that it becomes possible to move
closer to completing the record for the history
of this competition.
There is a further piece on the North-East
scene included in the 'And' section
of the site.
