  • Players – Terry Hibbitt – a Wayward Genius
    Players – Terry Hibbitt – A wayward genius Terry Hibbitt‘s impressive entrance into senior football hinted that he could be one of the most glorious talents to emerge from Leeds United‘s golden generation of the Sixties. He was given his first team debut as an 18-year-old against Nottingham Forest on 19 February 1966, coming on as a first half substitute for Paul Madeley. Within minutes of taking the field Hibbitt scored a stunning goal, lobbing goalkeeper Peter Grummitt from 20 yards. For the next three years the talented left winger continued to show rich potential whenever given an opportunity by Don Revie, but he disappeared into the cul-de-sac of reserve team football after the talented Eddie Gray established himself as Revie‘s preferred choice on the left flank. A £30,000 transfer to Newcastle United in 1971 gave Hibbitt the chance of reviving his career, and he used the platform to give clear evidence of his prowess in a playmaking role. Hibbitt‘s younger brother Ken, born on 3 January 1951 and an England Under-23 cap, also enjoyed a long and successful professional career, mainly at Wolves (1968-84), with spells at Bradford Park Avenue, Seattle Sounders, Coventry City and Bristol Rovers. Frail of build and bandy of leg, Terry Hibbitt did not have a classic athlete‘s build, but he was an outstanding midfielder, playing cultured and intelligent football. He possessed a great range of passing skills and an instinctive feel for the through ball which benefited Malcolm Macdonald among others. Toon midfield colleague Terry McDermott: ―Hibby had a left foot that was like a magic wand.

    SPORTBÜCHER HERBST 2020 2 E D I T O R I A L Bei einem Fußballspiel verkompliziert sich allerdings alles durch die Anwesenheit der gegnerischen Mannschaft. (Jean-Paul Sartre) In diesem Jahr ist im Fußball nicht die gegnerische Mannschaft das Problem, sondern das Corona-Virus. Der Sport muss sich in Zeiten der Corona-Krise neu positionieren in der © mowuestenhagen Gesellschaft. Vieles verändert sich, manches steht auf dem Prüfstand. Internationale Events wie die Fußball-Europameisterschaft und die Olympischen Spiele werden um ein Jahr verschoben. Die Pro klubs kämpfen wegen ausbleibender TV-Erlöse um ihre Existenz. Millionen von Amateurspielern – vom Steppke bis zum Senior – können nicht mehr miteinander trainieren. Der Fußball als Ganzes sorgt sich um seine Zukunft und versucht die Gegenwart irgendwie zu meistern. So wie Sie vor Ort in Ihrer Buchhandlung. Und so wie wir im Verlag. Was macht also ein Sport- und Fußballverlag im Corona-Jahr? Er spielt seine größte Stärke aus: Flexibilität. Keine EM und kein Buch dazu? Dann machen wir stattdessen was zum Thema „Fußball in Zeiten von Corona“. Schlechtgelaunte Fans, die nicht ins Stadion können? Wir haben die richtigen Bücher für solche Leute. Keine Pressekonferenz zum neuen Buch? Macht nix – wir produzieren Podcasts und Videos. Kein Büchertisch bei Ihnen? Kein Problem – wir bieten Ihnen stattdessen gerne auf Wunsch maßgeschneiderte Inhalte für Ihre Website an. Sprechen Sie uns gerne an, wir sind o en für Ihre Ideen! Ich weiß nicht, wie die Sportwelt in einigen Wochen aussehen wird. Aber ich weiß, wie wir unsere Zukunft gestalten werden: Gemeinsam mit Ihnen wollen wir sporthungrige Leser mit Futter versorgen.

We shall know when to brew the coffee and to settle down, as with Panorama, to up-to- the-minute comment on current affairs.

  • Race and Cricket: the West Indies and England At
    RACE AND CRICKET: THE WEST INDIES AND ENGLAND AT LORD’S, 1963 by HAROLD RICHARD HERBERT HARRIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON August 2011 Copyright © by Harold Harris 2011 All Rights Reserved To Romelee, Chamie and Audie ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My journey began in Antigua, West Indies where I played cricket as a boy on the small acreage owned by my family. I played the game in Elementary and Secondary School, and represented The Leeward Islands’ Teachers’ Training College on its cricket team in contests against various clubs from 1964 to 1966. My playing days ended after I moved away from St Catharines, Ontario, Canada, where I represented Ridley Cricket Club against teams as distant as 100 miles away. The faculty at the University of Texas at Arlington has been a source of inspiration to me during my tenure there. Alusine Jalloh, my Dissertation Committee Chairman, challenged me to look beyond my pre-set Master’s Degree horizon during our initial conversation in 2000. He has been inspirational, conscientious and instructive; qualities that helped set a pattern for my own discipline. I am particularly indebted to him for his unwavering support which was indispensable to the inclusion of a chapter, which I authored, in The United States and West Africa: Interactions and Relations , which was published in 2008; and I am very grateful to Stephen Reinhardt for suggesting the sport of cricket as an area of study for my dissertation.
