News Articles, Photographs, and Video acknowledgement
Acknowledgement is provided to all the journalists who have covered our great game over the last 70 plus years. Those journalists developed stories and video which in turn developed cultures within and encouraged the following of the code. There is no doubt that media in the last 10 years has changed significantly with the advent of social media and Live streaming. Everyone has a camera these days and the internet has made accessing that media so simple and instance.
