I hope this won't break any forum rules...by all means delete if it does. My only connection with these guys is as a customer and they don't know I'm typing this so I'm not getting any fringe benefits etc.

I had been trying to find a copy of 'Men of Norwood' by Mike Coward. A place in Melbourne fell through...then found tese guys based in Oaklands Park http://www.pioneerbooks.com.au/

Sent them an email...success...a great lady called Cathy (Bays barracker born and bred) checked stock, costed postage and despatched the book in under 48 hrs. That was last Wednesday...the book arrived here in Scotland about 30 minutes ago. I'm amazed at how quickly it arrived so I think they deserve all the credit I can give them.

Regards
a very very happy JAS :D

O'Connell's on Hindley nearly always has a copy in stock.

First print (1978) too...

Try melbourne Sports Books, Flinders St Melbourne, if they don't have one I'd be surprised (They have copies of Pride of the bay and IIRC I'm sure I saw copies of "men of Norwood")

Great store nothing but sports books

Unfortunatly Tassie that was the first place I tried after it was suggested on the Redlegs forum. Although they showed it being in stock on the web site (still do) they emailed to say that it was not in stock and suggested I try NFC. But no matter I have my copy now so I'm a happy camper.
