Ooops, you're quite correct. I had based my assumption on them losing to
Rangers.

I believe that Man United beat Forest 1-0 in the Rumbelows Cup Final, which
means that second and third place lead to UEFA Cup positions next season.
If Man United win the Championship, then the 2nd and 3rd placed teams go to the
UEFA Cup.
If Leeds win the Championship with Man United in 2nd, then Man United and the
3rd placed team go to the UEFA Cup.
Theoretically, Man United and Leeds will fight for the Championship while
the other four teams will battle for the remaining UEFA Cup spot.

Corazzin doing?  I think he was named to the Division 3 All-star Team last

Adelaide City 2		Marconi 1

Match was played in very slippery conditions with Adelaide attacking
strongly early in the match but Marconi fighting back until Vidmar
stole in for a header, unmarked at the far post.

Adelaide have a chance to do the double as they are in the playoffs
which commence next weekend.

From what I read they plan to show every professional game in the country. Each game
is to have a full 2 hour slot.  Mind you even a rabid football fan like myself might
get od'd with that much footy.

As you mention Garry, certain info can be compiled by several individuals
and sent to one (or more) person (people) who would keep and update the info
as necessary.

Er...This is not quite what I had in mind, Garry... :) I would be willing
to compile the list of shortwave frequencies and times of soccer-related
programs and broadcasts. I have already started to compile such a list
with the help of some netters. I'm still waiting to hear from others
out there who have information regarding these broadcasts...

Also, I would also be willing to compile info on soccer related mailing
lists available in net-land.

So, if anyone has any info for me on the above two topics, please get
in touch with me at the address below...

Friendly played Ankara, Turkey, April 8:

   Turkey - Denmark  2-1 (1-0)
      1-0 ??? (32)
      1-1 Elstrup (74)
      2-1 ??? (87)

Turkey get their first home victory under Sepp Piontek, while the
Danish preparations for WC94 start out badly.

The Danish team

			Mogens Krogh

          Ken Nielsen     Lars Olsen     Torben Piechnick

   Henrik Risom                                      Henrik Andersen
                          John Jensen
            Peter Nielsen             Johnny M/olby

           Bent Christensen           Brian Laudrup

Usual keeper Peter Schmechiel did not play due to Man U's game
yesterday. Kim Vilfort, Kim Christofte, and Flemming Poulsen injured.
Lars Elstrup came on as a sub for John Jensen in the second half.

The Danish defense looked weak and disorganized, with all three
defenders being heavy and slow. The Turks got an easy lead when Krogh
missed a direct free kick, while Elstrup equalized after some good
work by Laudrup. In the dying moments of the match the Danish defense
screwed up and lost the possible draw.

The Danish team never became properly organized, and the mid-field
lacked inspiration. Risom and Andersen never got around the Turkish
defense on the lines, and the mid-field in general was never able to
feed Christensen and Laudrup anything of substance to work on. Peter
Nielsen (23, Lyngby) got a reasonable first international game and
showed potential, but never made it big time. The rest of the
mid-fielders were far too anonymous and un-inspired. We need the
energy of a Poulsen, and we need far better organized play. And we
clearly need to have Schmechiel between the bars, thank you.

Nay lad! It were Barnstoneworth United. One of t'finest clubs ever to
grace Yorkshire League.

The basic premise of the story is that our hero is Barnstoneworth's most
dedicated supporter and attends every match without fail. Unfortunately
the once great team have fallen on hard times, and lose all their matches
by embarrassing margins, which causes the main protagonist to get violently
upset and results in a wrecked house every Saturday afternoon when he gets
home.

I seem to remember he saves the club from collapse, and then in order
to win an important match he reassembles the last great squad, including
Golden Gordon star centre-forward. Gordon's start to the match his somewhat
hesitant, but then he discards his wig and proceeds to score large numbers
of blinding goals with his head.

Now can anyone remember the 1920 Barnstoneworth reserves squad?
