America

A book has just been digitased and put online about football in America during the 1920-21 season. It must have gone on in the last few days. In it red writes on of the main articles about the current condition of football in America, the good bits and how it can be improved.

It totals 3000 words long and is very good. He comments on teams he has watched and is his usual outspoken self. I can't believe that in the space of a couple of months we have gone from knowing that Fred was in the US in the early 20's to now haing enough research for a complete chapter.

The internet has been amazing for us. when I started this research 17 years ago I had no idea that one day an American University Library would digitise an odd book about Soccer in 1920 and you would be able to see each page digitally photographed.

Also, Fred gets a mention in a 1925 newspaper called Truth that was published in Wellington, NZ. Commenting on the work he has done in American and Mexico. This has also been digitised and put online in recent weeks.
