The 1939-40 season was halted after three games by the outbreak of the Second World War. After a few weeks, friendly matches were permitted and later a full set of regional leagues were formed. The wartime conditions proved difficult for the clubs; many players were on active service duties and others were working in reserved occupations. Consequently, finding 11 men to play in a game, and finding transport to get to the ground, sometimes proved difficult.
Tim's book provides a narrative account of the war seasons. There are profiles of the leading players and full match facts.
