Why is Pele not listed in as a best player in the Yahoo Canada FIFA World Cup site?

Posted by: admin : Category: Pele

I find it hard to believe why Yahoo has not included Pele as one of the best and classic players in their site. Did someone miss the ball or something?

I'm not exactly sure, but it might be that he hasn't necessarily had a lot of impact on CANADIAN soccer, per se, but rather just socer in general, and particularly American (NY Cosmos) and Brazilian (Santos) soccer. Therefore, the Canadian website might have folks more along the lines of Dwayne DiRosario or … (I'm a yank, and don't know much about the soccer culture in Canada, particularly the history).

Is it possible to get a copy of the photo of Pele and Mandela from Pele's autobiography?

Posted by: admin : Category: Pele

There's a photo of Pele with Mandela in Pele's recently published autobiography that I need for a gift - The original from the book has a quote. Does anyone know if i can buy it - or how to contact those who own the copyright - and who they are?

If the name of the copyright owner doesn't appear in the book itself ( and Im sure it will, maybe in the acknowledgements section) then try e-mailing the publishers of the book .

They wil definitely be able to tell you who owns it, because they will have had to pay them to use it in the book. Then its a matter of getting in touch with the owner and explaining why you would like a copy of the photo..under the circumstances I dont think they should expect you to pay them for it.
