Sydney Olympic - Club Records - Pt 2.

This is a follow up on a blog I did last year attempting to put to together the Sydney Olympic club records, that is player appearances and goal statistics for every season.

They were incomplete, as the statistics for seasons 1958, 1959, 1960, 1975, 1976, 1980 had not been located.

Over the last few months, I have managed to track down the information for seasons 1975, 1976 and 1980.

So we are getting there, all that is left to find is the relevant information for seasons 1958, 1959, 1960, which are our first 3 seasons, where we competed in the NSW 2nd division. This will obviously not be easy, but we hope to track them down in the near future to complete these records.

For the benefit of everyone reading this blog, here are the Top 20 for appearances & goals.
