Brainchild of David Richards and Matthew Cooper, War of the Monster Trucks first hit the shelves in 1993 with the now famous headline ''Lucan Alive! Found in Sheffield United Trophy Room''. The name of the Fanzine was derived from the events of April 21st 1991 when Yorkshire Television elected to show War of the Monster Trucks in preference to the post match celebrations of the Owls' famous and unlikely 1-0 League Cup Victory over Manchester United . The fanzine was launched at a time when the club had managed to win its first trophy in almost 50 years, finish third in the FA Premier League and reach the final of two major cup competitions in the same year. The fanzine was co-edited by Richards and Cooper for several years before passing to Paul Taylor. Though losing some of its early ‘fizz’ the fanzine continued for several years. A copy of the fanzine is available for download at the SheffieldWednesday.com site. |
