16 - Shields Gazette , Friday , November 21 , 1975 SPORTS RED RUM TO PROVE BY NABOB a RED RUM hero of two Liverpool Grand Nat ionals and beaten short head in the " Hen nessy " two years ago , is taken to return to win- , form ning in the £ 10,000 Newbury trophy event tomorrow and thus justify his trainer's faith in him . Although " Rum " is without a win in four outings so far trainer Don this season , Newcastle NOT ' OVER TH McCain is adamant that his favourite ten - year - old charge , is far from " over the top . " going " good to firm " will be as near as he likes it - the firmer the better , and I am inclined to go along with McCain's of assessment Rum's form far this SO season . " He's had it all to do . " " Rum " has been showing all his old zest for the sport in recent sharpening up gallops on Southport sands and despite his big task over a testing three and a quarter miles tomorrow , is my choice .

Denys , Smithfub's'in midweek , I only have a playing staff of 13 and we could run into trouble if players got injured playing for other clubs . Certainly , when third , beaten seven lengths and a short head , by Even Swell and Tartan Tutor over three miles last at Newcastle " Shildon also tried to sign Parker , while Steve Hunter could have gone to Consett and Ray Young to Wallsend , but I have laid down the ruling that my players must play for Shields only . " I put this to Parker and he said that he is staying with us . I must put my club first , and I think the players realise the problems that could arise through injuries . It would be a pity to ruin all Shields should beat the University they have played only six games so far , having won three and lost three while Perey Main should make home advantage count against sixth bottom Greenwells who have seven points from 12 games . - - Says Elwell : " We should win , but everybody raises their game against us , and this will be the case tomorrow . I would also like to- give centre forward Jimmy Robson some credit for the way he is playing . O r t d 1 Shields Gazette and Shipping Telegraph Friday , November 28 , 1975 Mariners tell Moon to to go SOUTH SHIELDS make one change for tomorrow's Northern Alliance game against Workington Res erves at Borough Park and it is a £ 300,000 permanent one . Ray Moon , signed from Silksworth earlier this month , has repeatedly failed to report for train ing and has been told : " You can go we have - cancelled your registra tion with us . " 11 Says manager Bobby Elwell : " His performances on the field have been good enough but his attitude off it has not , and we have given him his release . We have been to great lengths with him , but he has not turned up for training and has not been in touch with us . " After his first absence , trainer Dave Robertson went to see him and I also visited him , but he has failed to keep his word and it would be unfair to other dedicated players if we allowed him to go on like this . " This week Shields beat Wearside League leaders Blue Star 3-1 ( Jimmy Robson 2 , and Parker ) in a friendly another occasion when Moon failed to appear and his deputy in that game . Freddie Carr , will continue as sweeper tomorrow . Elwell describes the Moon affair as a setback to his plans for next week's FA Vase third round tie at Wallsend , who beat Blue Star 3-1 in the previous round , said : " Team spirit is all im portant . Recently , for in stance , I told Freddie Carr that he would have a job to get back into the side in mid field , but he replied : ' I'll play in goal if you want me to , ' and that's the sort of spirit we want .
