Norfolk will receive the Division Six title, but North Bucks will still gain promotion as runner-up. BNCB

George helped the Palace to gain promotion from Division Four in his first season at Selhurst Park, during which he made full appearances for us, and he continued as a first-team regular under Dick Graham, to become one of only two men to appear in both the 1961 and 1964 promotion sides. BNCB

Chris was over-enthusiastic on the gas pedal and touched the rear of JP's car, bending his front wing out of shape. Google

There's nothing like getting behind the wheel and stepping on the gas pedal to make you feel like you're part of the action. Google

Before reaching the hill, say you are in the 4th gear doing 55-55 mph and keep the accelerator (gas pedal) pressed down at a constant amount, when you reach the base of the hill if you notice that your RPM drops by more than 250 RMP then it would be time to change to a lower gear, do not press the accelerator down any more, as this would
waist your fuel. Google

grass surface

travnatý povrch

Lacoste, successful at playing a slow, tantalizing game from the back court, was a champion when most events were contested on a grass surface. Google

This grand slam is on a slick grass surface that makes the ball skid when it bounces, making the ball stay very low to the ground. Google
