Will the new Wembley remain primarily a soccer venue or are there more uses planned for it? Because for hours on the 28th April 1923, North London was in utter chaos, because so many people had forgathered at Wembley to see this magnificent new stadium, which had just been constructed. www.ausport.gov.au /fulltext/1998/sportsf/sf980612.htm   (488 words)

AFL history The story about Ellis's "picking up a soccer ball and running with it" at Rugby School in 1823 is ridiculous in the extreme. Rugby today, with its set pieces, strict offside laws and emphasis on try-scoring, is unrecognisable from the game played at the Warwickshire school in the early 1820s. A tablet was placed in the walls of Rugby School and in 1923 a "centenary" match was played between England and Wales (21) and Scotland and Ireland (16) at the school's ground. rl1908.com /Rugby-League-News/AFL-history.htm   (1043 words)
