Word is already filtering across the Atlantic of Saturday's triumphant
"moral" victory by plucky little Celtic against Maryhill's finest. Liam
Brady was reported as being "over the moon" with his sides efforts. "To
manage a goal against a strong Thistle team is always satisfying and I'm just
glad so many of our loyal supporters were here to see it." he added proudly.
It just goes to show there are no easy games in the premier league any more,
a fact our fine soccer scribes are always reminding us. Lets hope Celtic can 
build on this and go from strength to strength. Liam was quick to remind us 
however that he takes it one game at a time and will look no further than next 
Saturday while quietly hoping his bhoys give 110 percent.Celtic fan Sean 
Subteranean made his feelings crystal clear when he said he was neither at the
game nor did he want his good name to be associated with the typical "anti-
Celtic bias" that Scottish soccer reporting is ledgendary for. (The Sunday 
Mason was unavailable for comment due to compulsory flute lessons)
Good luck to all our teams in Europe including the fearless MIMFC who are
reported to have some Scottish conections.

Well, well, isn't that being a bit harsh? Every player can have a bad
day. 

But then, I *do* expect the future libero of the Danish national squad
to be Claus Thomsen of AGF. He has all the right qualities. Give it a
year or so and I expect we'll see the change. Lars Olsen won't last
long while playing for a Belgian division 2 team.

Yes, I do remember Peter Lorimer getting a goal canceled because a

And BM truly won -- three years in sequence, in fact.

Rangers 4           Falkirk 0

McCoist 25,26,48,80

Att. 40,691 (biggest in Britain again)

One of these days we are going to murder a team and hit double figures but
this game will probably be remembered for SAlly scoring four out of five
chances. The Sunday Mail's `Terracing Tam' described it as "party time" in
the Copland Road Stand. Well, I was sitting there and was in danger of
falling asleep until ba' greedy opened the scoring! This came after Hateley
had had a goal chalked off for some unknown reason, he certainly didn't touch
the keeper as they went for the corner. Anyway, SAlly scored after a scramble
in the box then almost immeadiately after the centre was taken Hateley played
a ball into the Golden Boot winner standing *unmarked* on the penalty spot
and hence he buried it past Westwater. The second half started with a charge
into the box by Hen Broon and he cut the ball back to SAlly standing about
fifteen yards out. He struck it first time into the corner. Hateley then had
another goal chalked off before McCoist ended the scoring from close in after
Fergie had cut the ball back. This was a crap game and not really a good team
performance but apart from McCoist, I thought Bomber, Fergie and McCall had a
good game. The East Enclosure were singing "there's only one Kevin Drinkell"
even though he now lines up for Falkirk. He was a good servant to the club
and will be remembered for the diving header that was the fourth in the
famous 5-1 defeat of Celtic four years ago. As for the ref, he was bad but
the linesman on the Govan Stand side was unreal. The ball appeared to be
travelling out of play on far side but Davie Robertson was chasing it. The
linesman signalled for a throw before the ball had gone over the line and
before Robertson slid to keep it in!

The new ruling is that a player who has been in the country 7 years is
no longer counted as a foreigner. Hence Giggs et al at ManU can play.

On the same line, Stuttgart played 4 foreign players on Wednesday,
when 3 is the max. I thought this was odd at the time, well the
on-the-ball boys at UEFA noticed this and although a result hasn'e
been announced they could be kicked out or made to play again at
Elland Rd with the scores even!!! Either way Leeds are in the draw
today.

Don't know about over all competitions, but several cities have had two teams
in the Champions' Cup e.g. Madrid, Manchester and most recently Milan
(or Milano for any Italians out there :-) ).

>Ps Didnt UEFA once have a ruling whereby only one team from a city could enter

In the late 50s Barcelona played in the Champions' Cup and the Fairs Cup in
the same season and reached both finals, winning the Fairs Cup but losing
the Champions' Cup. After this UEFA stopped teams from entering more than
one competion.

Cities were only allowed one representative in the Fairs Cup, the
precursor to the UEFA Cup and in the early days this would sometimes be
a combined side (e.g. London entered with players selected from various
London teams). This ruling robbed Clyde of a place of Europe in
1967 when they finished 3rd in the Scottish League, due to Rangers finishing
second and taking the UEFA spot for Glasgow. It still annoys Clyde fans
who I know.

	Actually Claudio Borghi is a player of Colo-Colo (Chile).
	Just the last week, he played the final game by the Interamerican Cup,
where Colo-Colo was the championship, and Claudio Borghi is one of the stars
of this soccer team.

	Actually Colo-Colo is one of the best teams in South_America.

	P.S.: Interamerican Cup is a championship fighted by the best team
of South_America and the best one of Central and North_America.

Last season the BBC presented live commentary for English League first
division matches during its Saturday sports show.  I assume they are doing the
same for the Premier League this season.  The commentary starts a little after
the 1600 UTC news bulletin (i.e., I usually caught it after 11:00 a.m. EST) and
includes only the second half of a major match involving one of the big teams;
that is, I heard a lot of matches involving Arsenal and Manchester United, but
none with, say, Everton.  The frequencies are the usual BBC morning
frequencies.  I remember 17840 khz as one that usually came in well in the
eastern U.S.  Try 12095, 15220 or 15260 as well.  

Please note that the time and frequencies might have changed since last winter;
I haven't caught the Saturday sports show this season.

I can not agree this decision was hard against Leeds. It was the only
way to decide. UEFA-rules say if you have players on the field who are
not permitted, you lose the game with a score of 3-0. If the difference
was worse for the team, it would be kept (4-0 would remain 4-0 and not
become 3-0, AND 6-1 would remain 6-1). These are the regulations. So I
really wonder if they did not have to keep the 4-1. But this would have
been a clear advantage to Stuttgart, who made a fault. So they put the
'standard result' 3-0 there and we'll see another match. BTW no one
noticed the fourth foreigner on the bench. Maybe it was really an
unintended error. UEFA got the players' nominations and did not notice
anything (somehow reminds me of the Icehockey WC a few years ago).
I understand, that Leeds supporters are not very happy with the
decision, but I think there was nothing else the UEFA could do.

Subject: Any Israeli results?


Does have any results of games played by Israeli clubs?

Also, has the Israeli national team played yet . . . against any of
their European counterparts in their group?
