Paula, I have searched through all my e.mails, text msgs, PMs etc. and I can find neither an official application from you to join in our game nor any
confirmation from Craig that your application has gone to him.

Consequently, your post of Oxford is disallowed until we can ascertain that you are an official player in this game. It is your right and entitlement
to lodge an appeal once the Personnel Committee has made known its decision but in the meantime, on behalf of Mr Badge and myself I must formally request you not to post on this game until further notice.

Thank you for your compliance in this matter.

Ernst Happel Stadion, Vienna.

Austria's national stadium it is sometimes used by Rapid Vienna, Salzburg & FK Austria. A 49,000 all seater stadium, it was opened in 1931 as the Prater Stadium (after the park in which it is situated) but it was renamed in 1992 in honour of former player and manager Ernst Happel following his death. In 1986 £17million was spent on erecting a roof. The stadium hosted the 1970 Cup Winners Cup Final (Man. City v. Gornik Zabrze) and has been the venue for three European Cup finals (1964, Inter Milan v. Real Madrid, 1987, Porto v. Bayern Munich, 1995, Ajax v. AC Milan).

How's that for detail? :lol:
