Some notes on the African World Cup qualifiers played this past weekend and
the upcoming matches for Canada.

In article 17117@iti.gov.sg, harin@iti.gov.sg (Harinderpal Singh) writes:
>Results of World Cup Qualifiers played this weekend :
>=====================================================
>9 Oct     Africa Group F         Morocco 5 - 0 Ethiopia (abandoned 55 mins)

The BBC noted that half the Ethiopian squad (6 players) had recently defected 
while at a friendly match in Italy. The qualifying match against Morocco was
abandoned after 55 minutes because the Ethiopian side was reduced to 6 players
- most of the rest of the squad were suffering from injuries. There was some 
question as to the validity of these injuries and FIFA is looking into 
disciplinarian action against the Ethiopians. 


>Somehow these results have not come in. Anyone have them?
>=========================================================
>9 Oct     Africa Group D           Congo - Libya

Unfortunately, I do not have the score for any matches but may be able to shed
some light on the Congo - Libya match. The continuing United Nations air 
embargo on both incoming and outgoing Libyan flights may have made it impossible
for the Libyan side to reach Congo. The October issue of World Soccer notes that
Libya was forced to withdraw from the 1992 African Nations cup due to this embargo.

>This week's fixtures
>====================

Don't forget the two CONCACAF group B matches to be played at the end of this week

18 Oct  CONCACAF Group B     Jamaica - Canada
18 Oct  CONCACAF Group B     Bermuda - El Salvador

Canada will benefit greatly from the ban on Ipswich Town's Forest (is it one "r"
or two?). Canada's best goalkeeper will be available for the first three matches
of the round robin tournament. Hopefully Ipswich will release him when Canada 
advances to the next 3rd round of qualifications. This is one of the most annoying
problems for third world soccer nations ... obtaining their star players from 
European teams for international competitions. The profile and standard level of
play will not improve in Canada (the U.S., Australia, etc.) if we are forced to
compete with second string players.  Canada's TSN will show a tape delayed 
version of the Jamaica - Canada match on Sunday, October 18 at midnight EST while
the next week's match against El Salvador will be shown live(!) on Sunday, October
25 at 3:00 p.m. EST. 

Finally, many thanks to Harinderpal Singh for keeping us all on r.s.s. up to 
date on the international scene!

Well, Ruud decided himself not be play for the Dutch team. It's the one
thing I can't blame Advocaat for. However, which the above line-up he
seems to have come to his senses. I still predict a comfortable victory.

Yes, it seems that somebody up there ( :-) / :-( ) doesn't like football. I 
mean, the two 'sons' of Johan Cruyff (i.c. Van Basten en Bergkamp) who some 
believe is the son of that other famous J.C., were missing changes like 
they never missed before. It was incredible! The ball skipped past the right 
goalpost on numerous occasions, and the Dutch really deserved a few goals
(O.K., I admit, I'm a bit biased) but it wouldn't happen (J.C.is probably 
angry with his (grand)children). 5-2 as a final result would have been 
fairer, but I must admit that Poland had a good change of scoring late in 
the second half as well.

I happened to receive the latest copy of Team Talk this morning and brought it
in to peruse at lunchtime, it lists Gresley's results and gives a table
correct up until the 26th Sept.
GR 2 - 0 Dudley Town
Bridgenorth Town 1 - 4 GR
Stourbridge 2 -5 GR
Redditch United 0 - 2 GR
GR 5 - 0 Evesham United
So the top of the Beazer Midland Division looked like
		P	w	d	l	f	a	Pts
Gresley Rovers	5	5	0	0	18	3	15
Nuneaton Boro	6	4	2	0	15	7	14
Sutton Coldfld	5	4	1	0	16	8	13

Not a bad start to the season !

Hey guys,

  In case if you are interested in who's on top of their groups here is a
break_down :

  I didn't post the all the stats cause it's still too early to see any
dominations.  Keeping in mind that each team played 2 - 3 games so far and it's
still a long way to go.

 
  I'd like to see some of your predictions on who's gonna come 1st and 2nd in
their groups. I'll post mine soon. 

P.S. Life is short let's get Psyched for the next World Cup.

So what?  According to the rules it's the referee's responsibility to check
whether or not players of a team are allowed to play in a game.  If the 
referee allows Stuttgart to bench four international players, Stuttgart 
cannot 
be punished by that.

-------------------------------------

Say what? The referee's responsibility is ONLY to ensure that the players on 
the roster match the players that show up. How they get on the roster is NONE 
of the referee's job!!! Once they are on the roster, they are considered 
legitimate players and can sub into the game as per the laws of the games.

Now a days there are not "low level team's", football has become very competitive
just about any team in Europe can beat another team on any given day. Besides
what makes you think that Italy is such a "high level team", personally if you
take the foreign players out of the Italian league, I don't think that Italian
football is on such high level.

The England team to play Norway at Wembley on Wednesday night is:-

1) Chris Woods (Sheff Wed)
2) Lee Dixon (Arsenal)
3) Stuart Pearce (Nottm Forest)
4) David Batty (Leeds Utd)
5) Des Walker (Sampdoria)
6) Tony Adams (Arsenal)
7) David Platt (Juve)
8) Paul Gascoigne (Lazio)
9) Alan Shearer (Blackburn Rovers)
10) Ian Wright (Arsenal)
11) Paul Ince (Manchester Utd)

I don't know the subs yet and it is possible that I have got some of the 
shirt numbers wrong but the names are as on TELETEXT.

The two most notable names in the team IMHO are Gascoigne and Adams who have
both been out of the team for on reason or another for some time.

If anyone would like to know the squad for the English Div 1 match against
Serie B of Italy let me know and I will post it, but I can tell you now that
the only decent player in the squad is Jim Magilton (Oxford Utd).

Glorious Leeds United are to replay the Hun in Barcelona on Friday night.
Batty and Dorigo have been released from international duty (stop that

What happened to Mike Masters, who played in England last year for
GMVC (now Div 3) Colchester United? He's just about a capped player as
he came on as a substitute against the Ukraine earlier in the year.

                                                               ^^^^^^^
Mmmm ... misschien niet ( perhaps not ) ... I hear that PSV have won
the Dutch league for a large part of the past decade (6 times out of 7 ??).
Maybe AJAX are only second best.... Also, some PSV players in the
Dutch line-up, wow, how unusual ... maybe AJAX are slipping.

Anyway good luck to Holland ... after the Norway performance I think
'Oranje' may need it.

Groetjes aan iedereen,
