SATURDAY SOCCER SPOT
IN FOOTBALL, AS IN EVERY
OTHER WALK OF LIFE, GOOD MANNERS COST NOTHING
Says J. M. MacTAVISH
Good manners cost nothing. Even that seems too high a price for some of those folks who are active in our football affairs,
As you may already have read in another newspaper, there has been one more un- fortunate example of thoughtless behaviour by a soccer official...this time a referee.
It seems that our turbulent football life must be punctuated with these shows of spite, indiscretion or temperament, but it is somewhat surprising to find that the very people who blent loudest about misrepresentation should be the ones to bare their claws at those who go to them in search of accuracy.

BIG QUESTION
The big question tomorrow will centre on whether or not Kitchee have recovered from last week's humiliation, If they can forget that six goat disaster and find their shooting boots they should boat the Saints.
KMB have suggested recently that they are beginning to find botter form but they will have game against to go into their the Royal Navy with caution for the sailors are a most un- predictable side and, as they showed against the Police, they can get goals if they once get on top... but so much will de- pend on the availability of Navy players. My tip is KMB to win with the possibility of a major upset niways present.
для th result the RAF have ove of the strongest three lines they have hud oll reason, and combined with thu weight of the forwards they should have plenty of the ball, for the forwards should easily push the Club of the ball in the set scrums.
With everything in their favour the Mainland look like ricking up a fairly high score, but the Club is usually at is best when it seems down and out, and they could just give the Airmen a shock today.
