FLOODLIT RUGGER
Gunners Play The Rest Of The Army Tomorrow Evening
By "PAK LO"
Tomorrow evening on the Club ground at 6.30 p.m.. under the floodlights, the Royal Artillery will face the Rest of the Army in what should turn out to be a fast and hard battle.
The Gunners have had to make a few changes In their aide from their original selection due to injuries and, oddly enough, the result looks better than the original.

: 1956.
The English players who came best through the International with Yugoslavia at Wembley on November 28 were the goalkeeper, the half- backs and the outside right.. They were Téd. Ditchburn, Ronnie Clayton, Billy Wright, Jimmy Dickinson and Stanley Matthews - plus Tom Finney, during the period when he linked up with Matthews to make a crackerjack wing couple, All of these, except Clayton, is over 30 years of age!
Although England won 3-0 and had Johnny Haynes carried off injured, there was a complete lack of colreston about the forward fine, and England owed almost everything to their grand trio of halves. I have never seen Clayton play better, and Wright and Dickinson were their old reliable selves, That does not excuse the forwards.

Deal
May Spark Off
Biggest Spending Spree In Soccer History
By JAMES CONNOLLY
The £20,000 desperate Sunderland paid for Don Revie is only a fraction of what the club are prepared to spend to avoid their first-ever relegation. The Revie deal could well spark off the biggest spending spree in soccer history.
