Date OK, length OK (just). Hook confirmed by Ref 8; precise dates by Ref 2. But to be pedantic (and correct) the ban extended to January 1966, so the date should read "1965–66". Article well-referenced. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 16:39, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Ok, no problem, I changed the hook. --Soman (talk) 17:56, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks; that's fine. --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 18:12, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
