"Despite this overwhelming evid ence of the clubs' wisher the Manage- ment Committee Ignored the resolu tion and appointed Mr. Sutcliffe to make the fixtures.
"FLABBERGASTED"
"Many of the clubs were fabber. gasted by the decision and I received dozens of letters of sympathy, but my business occupied so much of my tinie that I decided not to pursue the mat- ter any further.

MR. SUTCLIFFE REPLIES
to Mr. Sutcliffe, replying Mr. Fletcher, said to a reporter:
"Let them go back to Mr. Fletcher's system if they want to. I can teach anyone his system in ten minutes, but Mr. Fletcher cannot discover my system, try he will.
"For sixteen years before the war I had compiled the fixtures with entire satisfaction to the clubs.
