Welcome to the full catalogue of the 274 Charles Buchan Football magazine issues that ran from 1951 to 1974, covering the professional and the amateur game, and the domestic and international scenes of those times. This research and input has taken many months of man hours so if you are here to copy and paste (!) can I ask you, as a courtesy, to credit my website url as your source PLEASE.

If you are searching for a "major" club you will be overwhelmed by results, so you will do better by looking at Team Bundles or by searching for the year when specific events occurred. Searching for players and "lesser" teams will be more successful. The results may turn out to be both articles and photographs.

The team associated with a player will be the team he was playing for at the time of the magazine's publication, so for example Jimmy Greaves appears as a Chelsea player, as well as an England and Spurs player. If a player has a national team listed in a photo caption this means he is wearing their national strip.

Remember to try full combinations of names, for example you may need to try Tottenham, Tottenham Hotspur and Spurs.

Finally, remember that copy deadlines were slower than they are now, so don't expect to see events reported until one or two months after the actual event.
