European Cup soccer
Soccer fans will’ welcome Television One’s decision to show on Saturday 50 minutes of the European Cup final between Liverpool and Borussia Moenchengladbach in Rome.
But as a correspondent, Stuart Burn, of Christchurch, points out, all people connected with soccer will be either playing, watching or reporting and will.not be able to watch the programme. "I know people interested in all sports wbuld want to watch it,” he writes, suggesting a late night slot, er a Sunday afternoon about 5 p.m. The head of sport for TVI (Harold Anderson) said he saw the point, but the Saturday afternoon programme had to be filled and it was normal practice for overseas soccer matches to be screened on this programme. So there will be no change and the European Cup final which Liverpool won, 3-1, will begin at 2.05 p.m. on Saturday’s "Sport On One.”
