Thomas
Sřfting has
written to me from Norway:
Does
the offspring of players who weren’t active in
70/71 make “The Next Generation”? If so,
you can add the following players to the list:
Daniel
Talbot (Rushden and Diamonds)– son of Brian
Talbot (Ipswich Town).
Steve
McMahon jr (Blackpool) – son of Steve McMahon
sr.
Scott
McNiven (Oxford), David McNiven (Leigh RMI) –
sons of David McNiven sr (Leeds, Bradford, Blackpool)
One
player who was
active in 1970/71 was then future Swedish
international Anders Linderoth (Helsingborgs IF), who is currently
manager of Hammarby. His son Tobias, himself a
Swedish international, is now at Everton.
Thomas
later wrote and added a further name to the list.
Gavin
Peacock, the former Chelsea, QPR and Newcastle
midfielder, is the son of Keith Peacock, who played
for Charlton in 70-71.BBC SPORT Charlton

Thomas, Tobias Linderoth and Daniel Talbot are still

Louise - Harry Redknapp's daughter-in-law - has a new
single out which is part of Asda's Tickled Pink campaign.
Profits from the sales of the single 'Pandora's Kiss' and
'Don't Give Up' and go towards Breast Cancer Care. See www.breastcancercare.org.uk The single was released on
Positive Records and reached number 5 in the UK charts on
its release, and this week (commencing19/10/03) is in its
5th week in the top 75.
Louise
with Asda and Breast Cancer Care was also part of a World
Record breaking mass simultaneous sing-song on 18
September. Apparantly 101,918 people sang her song 'Don't
Give Up' in Asda stores around the country. Ironically
Louise herself couldn't make a store herself because she
got stuck in traffic, so according to her official
website, she joined in on mobile phone. Did that count ?

20
August 2003: Michael plays the first 65
minutes in a home friendly against Croatia at Portman

make it 2-0 to England, which was the score when he
left the game. The final score was 3-1, and fellow
Next Generation star Frank Lampard scored the third
England goal.
This was
Michael's 51st cap and he scored his 23rd England

Mortensen in the list of Englan's highest

was the final score.
9
September 2003: Michael played a rare full
90 minutes for England when he won his 53rd cap
against Liechtenstein.
The home tie in
this European Championship's qualifier was played at
Old Trafford in Manchester.At half time the studio
pundits were spitting feathers at the 0-0 scoreline
against an opposition England were expected to thump
with a cricket score.
But all that
was needed was a win, whatever the score, to ensure a
Play-Off place for the Finals in 2004. So it was with
great relief that Michael scored his 24th goal of his
England career soon in the first minute of the second
half. Wayne Rooney added a second in the 52nd minute
and England sat on the score, job done, and avoiding
ban causing bookings.
This was
Michael's 21st successive game for England - and the
last 8 had all been victories. He now moves up to
equal 11th with Geoff Hurst on the list of England's
all time highest goalscorers. See England
Highest Scorers.

intrusive eye on the players performance counting

October 2003 Michael starts the month as
leading goalscorer in the Premiership with 7 goals.
He shares the lead with Ruud van Nistelrooy of Man
Utd.
11
October 2003: Michael's 21 game sequence of
matches played for England comes to an unwanted end
when injury forces him out of the crucial European
Championship qualifier away to Turkey in Istanbul.
England miss out on a 9th successive victory, but the
0-0 result takes them to the Finals in Portugal in
2004.

October 2003: According to www.footballnl.com at news,
Marc has left NEC and is likely to join non-league de
Treffers from Groesbeek.
Once again I am
indebted to Jelle Vanhijfte, who filled me in on this
information concerning Marc and de Treffers.
Coincidently
I had just been reading an interview with Marc Peters
in our local papers this week. He never made it at NEC
Nijmegen, also had some injuries in that time. Now
he's playing for de Treffers indeed. Yesterday (12 October 2003)
he gave two assists in de 4-2 win over Be Quick
Groningent.
De Treffers are from Groesbeek, which is a small
village just outside Nijmegen. There is only 20.000
people living there, but the village contains two
Sunday Top Division teams, De Treffers and
Achilles'29. So de Treffers is indeed an amateur team
in the highest division on Sunday, and Marc Peters is
playing for them.

blamed by some sections of the crowd for the country
doing so poorly in the 2002 World Cup Finals. The
openning World Cup qualifier being played in the
River Plate's El Monumental Stadium, was no doubt not
too pleased at Argentins losing a two goal lead to
draw 2-2, though Juan himself was not to blame for
the result. (See Veron Is Public Enemy No 1 In
