Talk:Melchester Rovers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Bulking out the article
Bit by bit, I'm going to build up a history of the club as told by the various Roy of the Rovers comic strips. I plan to divide the history section into "Early Years" (including the pre-war years and the first years of the strip), "1960s", "1970s", "1980s", "1990s" and "2000s". If anyone would like to contribute to this, then please feel free. I'm currently writing a section on the club's various kits and colours, so there's no need to do that; but there'll also be sections on notable players, notable managers, honours won (with a note that they're all fictional!) and so on, so any contributions are welcome as it will take a while to get it all up and ready.
Since the article should really, as a whole, be about the "original" Melchester, I would suggest moving mention of the real clubs that have taken the name to a separate section at the end of the article. Seb Patrick 08:27, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
- That sounds brilliant Seb, I'll see if I can chip in anywhere, altho my ROTR comics all went for a burton in a house move years back, so I only have "the book"..... ChrisTheDude 08:45, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

- Well, "the book" is probably all that's needed, to be honest. It's pretty much all I've currently got access to, aside from a handful of annuals... Seb Patrick 08:57, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks to Braxiatel for the work on the '80s and '90s sections! Seb Patrick 13:04, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
What was the name of the guy who took over as manager for a few months in 1993? Ralph....someone..... ChrisTheDude 11:20, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
- I can't remember... I wanted to add him in, but I don't have the book to hand and he's not mentioned on the website. I'll check and add it tonight. Seb Patrick 11:55, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
