[edit] Images

Are those images of 'Jairzinho in action' really necessary? They look really untidy and couldn't these events just be described in writing? Bababoum 16:58, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I would be in favour of either re-sizing them or removing one or two, as currently they take up a large chunk of the article. Also the picture of the goalkeeper on the first image looks tacky, I would prefer it to be replaced with an image of Banks or removed altogether. Dave101talkcontributions • 17:09, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I think we should just get rid of them altogether. They look tacky. Bababoum 13:09, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

I've just gone ahead and moved the images to here, until we can decide what to do with the ugly things. Sir-Nobby 13:41, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
