 | | And if the Dominican footballers are as creative as the artist who designs some of the hotel's brochures here (which bear as much resemblance to the real thing as Batley Town Hall does to the Taj Mahal) then they are definitely in with a shout. |
 | | Game number one of the 635 qualifying matches to be played for football's 1998 World Cup is Dominica versus Antigua, and while it would come as no great surprise if it has bypassed the rest of the universe, it is, of course, driving the islanders here into a frenzy of anticipation. |
