Korejec Son Heung-min čelil po londýnském derby rasistickým urážkám

OT: Ahoj, chtěl bych poradit kam vyrazit na prodloužený víkend v ČR. Nějaký místo v přírodě kde budou fajn procházky ne moc náročný, protože přítelkyně je těhotná. Ubytko by bylo fajn s bazénem. Díky za radu.

To byl určitě zase nějakej Slávista.

tady k tomu Harrisonovi, co prichazi z Evertonu:

His role will be to ensure that all the moving parts of United’s football department — the men’s, women’s and academy teams — run smoothly. And despite the job title being similar to that of football director John Murtough, ‘operations’ is very much the key word.

It is a role focused on logistics and organisational matters rather than transfers, recruitment or wider strategy. Harrison will oversee the administrative side of United’s football department, with his responsibilities including the arrangement of travel and accommodation for matches.

Emerson vysvětluje tu svoji oslavu, asi jeho první rozhovor v angličtině ale sympatický.

Nezačal u Spurs zrovna slavně a dostával hroznou čočku. Ale je fakt, že vždycky makal a ačkoli dopředu tomu týmu často moc nepomohl, aspoň směrem dozadu to odjezdí a rve se za tým.

Co má znamenat to jeho gesto na fotce? Je to nějaký výsměch lidech s kulatýma očima?

ta nabidka INEOSu. Ratcliffe chce proste vykoupit Glazery no, coz i dava smysl. Glazerove nemuzou ted prodat cely klub, kdyz vlastni jen 69 procent akcii.

So while the Glazers currently control 96 per cent of the votes at United, thanks to their Class B shares, Ratcliffe’s bid would only entitle him to 69 per cent of the votes.

Ve vysledku, tohle pak uz Glazery nemusi zajimat, pro ne se nic nemeni, porad budou za svy akcie chtit tech 4-5 mld.

The Ratcliffe bid made no formal statement about debt but, behind the scenes, it has provided assurances that no “fresh debt” (ie, any money borrowed to acquire United) will be landed onto the club’s balance sheet and will instead be borne by INEOS.

However, the Ratcliffe bid has not said it will wipe existing debt from United, which is, from a communications perspective, tricky to overcome. Debt has been regarded as a dirty word at Old Trafford due to the years of vast repayments that have leaked out of the club to serve the interests of the owners.
