FULHAM SHOULD MAKE BENTLEY HALF-BACK

Says BERNARD JOY

The first obstacle Fulham must surmount if they are to regain the First Division place they lost in 1952 is the Inferiority complex of the defence,

Since the days of the brilliant inside-Forward trio of Johnny Haynes, Bedford Jezzard and Bobby Robson, the defenders have been overshadowed. What is more, shortcomings in the side arê áttributed to them.

Fortunately Fulham now have the defender to pump back the confidence which has рест suppec. He is Jimmy Langley, who Was obtained. from Brighton for £12,000 February.

FOR THE NEW SEASON

Says TOM FINNEY

This could be a bumper season for English soccer. There will be more pay for the players; faller bonuses; talf of even more money if the game prospers. So as the game progresses here's my plea to my fellow, professionals; "Let's roll up our sleeves and try to raise the standard of play só thất England will be once more top of the soccer pile."
