Sheffield United: The Complete Record book - update?

[drblade]

Published in 2012 and written and compiled by Denis Clarebrough and Andrew Kirkham, it's an excellent book that I look at a lot.

However, no update since 2011/2012 season and so wondered if anyone knew whether there are plans for it to be updated?

I also have this book and always buy any reference books especially relating to ourmatches, scorelines, attendances, goalscorers etc.

However I wonder if the reason for no update is there may no longer be much money in producing reference books these days.
There used to be the Rothmans football annual record books which started in 1970 but stopped being produced in 2018.

For any info relating to our matches after 2012 there are several websites that provide most of that info.

For example here are 5 sites that provide great reference and stats info. You can also simply google stuff.

No need. Just ask Silent Blade, and he will answer

One of the co-authors, Denis Clareborough is well into in his 90s, saw the other co-author Andrew Kirkham at the Sheffield Central library one Saturday morning a few years ago. He often goes to the library before a Blades home match (he lives in North Yorkshire) and I assume he still goes to matches.

It’s a good point.

It’s nice to have it in book form though, I’m probably just a dinosaur.

The Who’s Who book (2008) is also another excellent source. An update to that would also be welcome

A revised edition of the Who's Who book probably would double in size to the original one. I lose track of the players we have had in this century!
