Optimistic Nut Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 They are brilliant. Blackburn Rovers' trip to India has been postponed following the recent terrorist attacks in Mumbai. The board and the owners have agreed to re-schedule until such time as further risk assessments and appraisals have been undertaken. The trip, involving the senior squad, management and officials, is now expected to take place in the autumn (more details to follow). A joint statement from the club and the owners reads: "Safety is always our top priority and after detailed discussions with our security and legal advisors we have been left with no option other than to postpone. While everyone is obviously disappointed, we all accept the circumstances and the reasoning. We are now looking forward to the trip to India in a few weeks time."

oldtype Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 f***ing hell, 15 goals in 6 matches for Son Heung-Min now. Yes, it's the pre-season and Hamburg are playing some absolutely abysmal teams, but still, I can dream. 17 in 7 now. Two more goals. Against Bayern Munich.

Hope they make a good job of it. "We're fully aware of the issue of spreading ashes around the pitch and would wish to fully respect those ashes that are already there and have been for a number of years. "In laying the tarmac we feel we are 'sealing in' the ashes that are already there to protect them for eternity and people will still be able to lay flowers on anniversaries if they so wish. "We do regret however that we will no longer be able to provide the facility for fans wishing to spread ashes in the future." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ishmael Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 New Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has been given a less than warm welcome by a group of hardline fans who have now issued him with a 'code of conduct'. The Bayern Munich Ultras are furious that Neuer - a self-confessed fan of his former club Schalke - has joined the Bavarian outfit. The two sides have an intense rivalry which has been growing in recent years. The Germany goalkeeper was given a hostile reception during the first half of Bayern’s 15-0 win over Italian side Trentino at their training camp on Lake Garda last week. A banner read: “You can save as many balls as you like. We will never accept you in our shirt.” Neuer met with some hostile fans last Tuesday, but in a statement posted on their website on Thursday, the conglomeration of five fan groups said nothing had changed. "Manuel Neuer has said how he will behave towards us fans in future, but our opinion of him has not changed," said the statement. "During the meeting, we explained how he should behave towards us." And now German tabloid Bild claims to have seen the code of behaviour issued to Neuer. According to the paper, their five point code warns him he must never: 1) Sing fan chants on their megaphone (a tradition for popular players) 2) Kneel in front of the team and sing the "Humba" song 3) Approach the South stand (where the Bayern Ultras sit) 4) Throw his shirt into the crowd 5) Kiss the Bayern bade on his shirt The statement from the five groups, named by Bild as Beautiful People in Munich, Inferno Bavaria '01, Munich Maniacs '96, Red Alert and Munich's Red Pride, said: "If Manuel Neuer observes the rules of conduct and maintains a respectful distance (from us), there will be no more protests or organised demonstrations against him." Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes told Bild last week: "A minority group cannot demand that a player has to behave this way or that way. "In the past, I would have been up in arms about this, but today I just say if everyone behaves reasonably with each other, everything will be resolved."
