Nice man Ken.Does this mean we outsiders can now look forward to never hearing about 1966 again.36 years is a long time.

Not a clue. I'm about as outside as you can get, in Texas. But I knew about him. I was four in '66.
Most Americans won't get the reference. Most of them have never heard of the Battle Of Hastings.

Ah,you're talking about the Battle of Hastings.But wasn't that in 1066.If you were for then,what are you against now?

Totally confused.
The connection between the game and the battle is a coincidence that has been used by many. Particularly since there was a book called,"1066 and all that."

Hi tr,was the game not a battle?Or at least a re-enactment of WWII.I have heard it said that the team[England]displayed the Dunkirk spirit of never-say-die and saw off the Germans-----again.Or maybe I've got it wrong.

Got me. I'll have to see if there's a video.
I just lamented the passing of a broadcast pioneer.
