“…Im Gegensatz zu der sich anbahnenden positiven Entwicklungen haben die
Funktionäre “…” bewusst das Status des DTSB, die Beschlüsse und Maßnahmen
des IV. Verbandstages der DDR sowie Satzungen und die Spielordnung des DFV der
DDR verletzt. Aus örtlichen, egoistischen Gründen wurden … unter grober
Verletzung der Prinzipien unserer sozialistischen Gesellschaft und unserer
sozialistischen Sportorganisation den Spielern und Fünktionären
ungerechtfertige materielle Vorteile gegenüber den andern Fussballsektionen
verschafft…
Es wurden finanzielle Mittel verschiedener Fonds der Betriebe unberechtigt
für sportliche Zwecke verausgabt.

Holland the Cup

Cup: Ajax – Sparta 2-2 (aet)

rep Ajax – Sparta 2-1
Sparta (Rotterdam) tried hard and lost only in the replay by a single goal – considering the strenght of Ajax, it was admirable effort.

Ajax prevailed with great difficulties. Standing from left: Sondergard, Rijnders, Stuy, Suurbier, Krol, Suurendonk. Front row: Keizer, Swart, Vasovic, Cruijff, van Dijk

This is not the team playing at the Cup final, but wonderful photo of Ajax in blue.

Ajax won their 6th Cup in 1971 and second consecutive one,but it was difficult victory, trailing twice in the first match, and opening the scores with quastionable penalty in the replay. Rinus Mischels was leaving, a few regulars were leaving, but the great squad was already at hand and going to win… everything. No need even to name the players – almost all of them are well known to young and old.

Holland II Division

II Division. Because of the merger between ADO and Holland Sport the top three teams were promoted to First Division. After the end of the season G.V.A.V. was succeeded by FC Groningen, which took their place in First Division and G.V.A.V. returned to amateur football. No relegation this season due to the change of structure: Tweede Divisie was disbanded at the end of the season and 6 teams from Tweede Divisie were included in the Eerste Divisie, the rest going back to amateur football. Professional and amateur football were separated and thus no longer teams were relegated from second professional level (Eerste Divisie).
