The piece does not surprise me. Our football was in shock. For years we thought that the World Cup was something for the lesser countries, then we realised the USA could beat us and we were into an era in which the Hungarians for one seemed to be playing a different game - a bit like Spain and Barca and Real in recent times.

It will soon be five divisions, which I've long advocated. The season before that happens we'll have to be well up Division One even to stay where we are.
