Colne Bookshop and Sold for a Stand

Post by Rodleydave » Sat Dec 09, 2023 9:32 am

The Colne shop now has more copies of Sold for a Stand, and with each copy there is a free hardback Best of Burnley.
Also a great selection of children's Christmas books.

Is that Martin Dobson’s autobiography? If so may get someone to call and get me a copy.
Bob Lord saw it as a good piece of business at the time as Everton paid a decent transfer fee for him.
Best piece of business we did with Everton was a couple of years earlier when Jimmy Adamson signed the outstanding Keith Newton from them on a free. One of my favourite Burnley players of all time was Keith. Died far too early. RIP great man.
Dobbo was an outstanding player also btw.

It's the story of the 'Team of the Seventies'.
It's also on my Xmas present list.
