On This Day (1998)

I am unable to post regularly this week – news will be covered by the Real EFL supremo Ryan Whelan, but to ensure there’s something of value for you each day, I’ve gone back in the papers and found some bits from each day I’m unavailable. 

Most will be presented without comment for your enjoyment!

From my book, A-Z of Imps Players 1993-2017
