Not heard of that one but in the early sixties an American soccer (hate that word) team used New Brighton's ground to train and play on. That was the first time we had seen strange white and black footballs with hexangonal panels on them. Loads of them got pinched by the local lads and they appealed for them to be returned because they were running out of them. Didn't give mine back! Oops!

Shortly after the war Germany beat England 1-0 and the German captain was heard to say to the England skipper "we have just beat you at your national game" The England capt replied "we've just beat you at yours"
