    Does anyone miss it ? I forgot all about the echo until a couple of days ago, the trouble is it was out dated with matches played on Saturday nights, Sunday and Monday. I had echoes from the 1970's but threw them out to make space. Is there an online version ?

    My dad used to send me it when I was out in Saudi. You'd be amazed how many would read it after me.

    Just a simple link to home when all you had was the Arab News or the BBC.

    I remember the little football man on the score line and how he'd be happy if we won or sad if we lost :)
