Fritz Walter was the 1954 captain. Other than that, Matthaus was mentioned earlier and marked down as wrong...

Brazil 1966 is the answer you're looking for - Brazil were runners-up in 1950!

And Carlisle stayed up thanks to an injury-time goal from their keeper, who had been loaned after the transfer deadline by special dispensation from the FA. Jimmy Glass, signed from Swindon, who didn't earn a contract for all his trouble and has since retired from football and is now working as a computer consultant or some such.

I had an exam that morning and was in the pub when the scores were going through is how I remember...

How did Turkey qualify for the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland?

was it not due to something with Cyprus,where they were disqualified?

either that or it was something to do with a playoff with Spain?

I know i know it, but cant for the life of me think of it!!!

**foureyes** · 20/04/2003, 5:20 PM

spurs, liverpool, everton, leeds and?

**pineapple stu** · 20/04/2003, 8:31 PM

Middlesborough.

And for to put GWA out of his misery - Turkey played Spain, but beat them at home and lost away. To decide which qualified (no aggregate score back then), a blind Italian boy drew lots and drew Turkey.
