This title was originally published in 1950, and Yaccarino's new illustrations retain the look of that era. The colors are uniform and flat throughout, and Ollie wears a navy suit with short pants and a bow tie.

They will obviously, as always, look at a game against Blackburn as a winnable game but we will make sure it will be a difficult day for them I am sure." Despite their consistent qualification for Europe Blackburn are still viewed in some quarters as a 'small' club and their talents are often under-estimated. But the perception of his side is not something that concerns Hughes, especially as he feels it may actually benefit Rovers.
