N.A.D.S. vs. The Gate pub football team 7 Nov 1971.
This was the first football match for the NADS. In fact, it was the first soccer
match for a number of our players, and most of the others hadn't played since
high school. We had not even practiced or yet played together.
In retrospect, we may have been a little over-promoted as the "USA All Stars"
unless they were referring to beer consumption! However, The Gate team may
have been over confident, and were surprised that they barely got by us...
We were beaten 4-0, but our supporters won for enthusiasm and appearance. And
our new Carnaby Street uniform jerseys were something else! I have some photos
of team members recently modeling their old jerseys, but won't go there...
