Well, let's excuse Thommy who wasn't yet born when this happened. He just
accepts what he has experienced on his own. So all other standards - in special
fair play coming from England in the 19th century - are old out-dated stuff.
Just like DschingisKhan...  :))

The rest of the world will always hold in mind the throwing of a game during the
Wch in Graz to the benefit of SHREDDER.

To all who want to follow Mayer, he was talking of the soccer final in 1966
which ended with 4-2 for England.
