IT'S IN TOUCHING OR DEPLORABLE? Whats Best in Kowloon?

Tottenham players can only watch as the ball flies past the groping fingers of their goalkeeper Reynolds to notch the first goal-scored by centre forward Wilson (on ground, right) for Nottingham Forest in the First Division match at White Hart Lane ground, London, on October 5. Forest won 4-3.--

41,000 Turned Out To

See John Charles

At Elland Road

Play At

No sentiment in Soccer? Ask the 41,000 spectators who saw Leeds United play Juventus recently. Those fans turned up at Elland Road to pay their respects to the world's greatest footballer.

At the end, they sang Auld Lang Syne in honour of John Charles, the gentle giant.

They wiped their eyes, and were not ashamed of their damp handkerchiefs. Touching? 1 prefer to call it deplorable! John Charles's comeback as the outstanding artist in an Italian team emphasised above all the follies committed by the legislators of English soccer.

I'm sorry the guilty men who drove Charles out of the country were not present for

the performance.

They have been wamed. Italy's ban a foreign footballers will probably be lifted in May and Gigi Peronace, the international scout who makes 7 living "sounding"" star players, has the power and the cach-to smash football in this country.

That's not just my opinion, Listen to one of our brightest young manngers, Bill Shankly, of Huddersfield Town.
