Hello
I’m hoping you might be able to help me, I run the website www.rangersfchistory.co.uk   a football club history site and as part the project we hope to include articles on the various Benefit games Rangers have taken part in. On October 9 1937 Rangers played Stoke City in a game to raise funds for the victims of the Holditch Coliery Disaster. I would like to reproduce the article that you have on the disaster on my site. I will of course give your site full credit and provide a link back to your site. I always like to ask rather than just copy someone else’s work I hope this will be ok.

Rangers
