May 7, 1945 Football officials from all over the country, many with famous players of the past, now managers, to advise them, met at Manchester today to make post-war plans. An early surprise was the carrying of Arsenal’s amendment that, in the transitional period, First and Second Division […]
April 30, 1945 Reason for Liverpool s surprising defeat at Chesterfield can be traced to forward failing. Had the attack functioned with the same accuracy as the defence the Reds would still be in the Cup. I say this while appreciating that in the first half the Reds’ […]

Monday, April 23 – 1945 The fact that Chesterfield held Liverpool brought, I can tell you, some “wise-after-the-event” recriminations, but I am confident that by next Saturday evening they will be proved to have been ill-founded.
