AGRADECIMENTOS Após uma longa trajetória acadêmica e pessoal, chegar à conclusão do trabalho nos leva a um momento muito importante: os agradecimentos. Aqui, os âmbitos pessoal, profissional e intelectual se misturam. Agradeço, primeiramente, a minha mãe, Vera Lúcia, por ser sempre um exemplo de retidão, lisura, sabedoria e eterna persistência. Ao meu pai, Cid, pelo exemplo de tenacidade e de hombridade na vida e por ter me apresentado o São Paulo Futebol Clube e dele ter me feito torcedor. A minha esposa, Luciana, por todo o carinho, amor, paixão e companheirismo. Ainda pela paciência com as ausências e tensões com a pesquisa. Independentemente de minhas escolhas, sempre se mostrou orgulhosa porque nunca duvidou de mim. Sei que dizer apenas obrigado é muito pouco para tão grande amor. Aos meus filhos, Felipe e Beatriz, e demais familiares, por acreditarem em mim e por me apoiarem nessa minha trajetória. Para não ser injusto, agradeço aos meus amigos do século passado, que, apesar da distância e da correria do dia a dia, sempre torceram por mim. Aos amigos mais recentes, de outra fase da vida, devo também sinceros agradecimentos. Em especial, agradeço aos companheiros dos clubes de Judô da Semel e do Campestre em Varginha-MG, pelas inúmeras mensagens de apoio e incentivo. Agradeço, ainda, aos colegas de trabalho do CEFET-MG, Campus – VIII Varginha- MG, pelo irrestrito apoio durante essa longa caminhada. Especialmente aos colegas do Departamento de Formação Geral, os quais, brilhantemente, “seguraram as pontas” durante o meu afastamento. Aos antigos professores, do fundamental ao mestrado, pelos ensinamentos, dedicação e, principalmente, pela paciência. Ao meu orientador, Prof. Élcio Loureiro Cornelsen, devo um agradecimento mais do que especial, pelos ensinamentos acadêmicos e pessoais. Apesar de toda sua bagagem acadêmica e profissional, me mostrou, com humildade, que o intelectual necessariamente tem de ser humano. Agradeço, ainda, aos professores e professoras do programa de pós-graduação dos Estudos do Lazer da EEFFTO da UFMG com os quais tive a satisfação de conviver e aprender, pois, mesmo oriundo de uma área diferente ao programa, me aceitaram e incentivaram a todo momento. Ao secretário Danilo, que, além de um excelente profissional, me auxiliou nessa caminhada com seus conselhos que me fizeram chegar até este momento. Aos membros da banca: Prof. Francisco Brinati, pelas dicas no processo de qualificação; Prof. Cleber Dias, pela acessibilidade, pelas contribuições e sugestões de importância ímpar para a conclusão do trabalho; ao Prof. Luciano Pereira pelo aceite e pelas considerações histórico futebolísticas e ao Prof. Gustavo Guimarães, pelo aceite mesmo estando tão distante. Aos colegas do programa de pós-graduação dos Estudos do Lazer da EEFFTO da UFMG, pelo coleguismo, debates e pela grande amizade construída ao longo desse tempo. Agradeço especialmente ao Sidney Daniel e ao Daniel Venâncio, pela amizade incondicional, com quem pude discutir sobre minha pesquisa e ouvir excelentes conselhos que me ajudaram muito na construção da tese. Pelas boas risadas e pelas longas horas de estudo. Por fim, quero agradecer aos meus antigos alunos, sobretudo aos meninos do CEFET-MG, que sempre me apoiaram e tiveram a sensibilidade de compreender a necessidade do meu afastamento. Saibam que, apesar da distância, sempre torci, e torço, pelo sucesso de todos vocês. RESUMO Esta tese realiza um estudo comparativo entre as obras Fever Pitch, de Nick Hornby, e Long Distance Love – a passion for football, de Grant Farred. A proposta é analisar o que se refere aos conceitos de “memória e identidade” e “autobiografia esportiva”, como também investigar a forma como os autores apresentam o “ato de torcer” em suas obras para, então, preencher uma lacuna em relação ao estudo comparativo, nos apropriando das diferenças e semelhanças entre as narrativas. Para isso, a metodologia escolhida tomou como base a pesquisa das teorias autobiográficas, em especial o pacto autobiográfico de Philippe Lejeune e Andrew C. Sparkes. Ademais, foram utilizados os conceitos sobre memória e identidade adotados por Stuart Hall, Joel Candau, Michael Pollak e Maurice Halbwachs, e as definições sobre historiografia de Alain Courbin, Martin Polley e Matthew Taylor. Além da leitura analítica dos livros selecionados, realizou-se uma pesquisa em trabalhos publicados sobre os autores em livros, jornais e periódicos. As décadas de 1970 e 1980 foram selecionadas para que fosse possível efetuar uma comparação entre as obras, considerando que têm, como centralidade, além do torcedor de futebol e sua passionalidade clubística, a literatura esportiva inglesa. Nick, torcedor do Arsenal. Grant, torcedor do Liverpool. Ambos apresentam suas tragédias e epifanias, exibidos num enredo em que a paixão pelo futebol e, principalmente, por seus times, é tratada como uma obsessão, pois promove uma junção entre viver e torcer, tornando-os elementos inseparáveis. Os autores viviam em realidades diferentes. Nick, branco, morava na Inglaterra e podia acompanhar o Arsenal nos jogos. Grant, negro, morava na África do Sul em pleno regime do Apartheid e torcia para o Liverpool, um time eminentemente racista, que não aceitava jogadores negros. A realidade dos torcedores/autores foi retratada nesta tese de forma a mostrar que a relação entre eles é bem maior do que se pode ler em uma autobiografia. Palavras-chave: Atividades de Lazer. Autobiografia. Futebol. Nick Hornby. Grant Farred. ABSTRACT This thesis performs a comparative study between the works Fever Pitch, by Nick Hornby, and Long Distance Love - a passion for football, by Grant Farred. The proposal is to analyze what refers to the concepts of “memory and identity” and “sports autobiography”, as well as to investigate the way in which the authors present the “act of supporting football” in their works to then fill a gap in relation to the comparative study, appropriating the differences and similarities between the narratives. For this, the methodology chosen was based on the research of autobiographical theories, in particular the autobiographical pact of Philippe Lejeune and Andrew C. Sparkes. In addition, the concepts of memory and identity adopted by Stuart Hall, Joel Candau, Michael Pollak and Maurice Halbwachs and the definitions of historiography by Alain Courbin, Martin Polley and Matthew Taylor were used. In addition to the analytical reading of the selected books, a research was carried out on published works about the authors in books, newspapers, and periodicals. The 1970s and 1980s were selected so that it was possible to make a comparison between the works, considering that, in addition to the soccer fan and his clubistic passion, English sports literature is central. Nick, Arsenal fan. Grant, Liverpool supporter. Both present their tragedies and epiphanies, displayed in a plot in which the passion for football and, especially, for their teams, is treated as an obsession, as it promotes a junction between living and cheering, making them inseparable elements. The authors lived in different realities. Nick, white, lived in England and could follow Arsenal in the games. Grant, a black man, lived in South Africa under the Apartheid regime and rooted for Liverpool, an eminently racist team that did not accept black players. The reality of the fans / authors was portrayed in this thesis to show that the relationship between them is much greater than what can be read in an autobiography. Keywords: Leisure activities. Autobiography. Soccer. Nick Hornby. Grant Farred. RESUMEN Esta tesis realiza un estudio comparativo entre las obras Fever Pitch, de Nick Hornby, y Long Distance Love - una pasión por el fútbol, de Grant Farred. La propuesta es analizar lo que se refiere a los conceptos de “memoria e identidad”

    “perplexity is the beginning of knowledge…” Kahlil Gibran A Tear and A Smile (1950) STYLIN’! SAMBA JOY VERSUS STRUCTURAL PRECISION THE SOCCER CASE STUDIES OF BRAZIL AND GERMANY Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Susan P. Milby, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Melvin Adelman, Adviser Professor William J. Morgan Professor Sarah Fields _______________________________ Adviser College of Education Graduate Program Copyright by Susan P. Milby 2006 ABSTRACT Soccer playing style has not been addressed in detail in the academic literature, as playing style has often been dismissed as the aesthetic element of the game. Brief mention of playing style is considered when discussing national identity and gender. Through a literature research methodology and detailed study of game situations, this dissertation addresses a definitive definition of playing style and details the cultural elements that influence it. A case study analysis of German and Brazilian soccer exemplifies how cultural elements shape, influence, and intersect with playing style. Eight signature elements of playing style are determined: tactics, technique, body image, concept of soccer, values, tradition, ecological and a miscellaneous category. Each of these elements is then extrapolated for Germany and Brazil, setting up a comparative binary. Literature analysis further reinforces this contrasting comparison. Both history of the country and the sport history of the country are necessary determinants when considering style, as style must be historically situated when being discussed in order to avoid stereotypification. Historic time lines of significant German and Brazilian style changes are determined and interpretated.

  • Transcript for Culture, Sport and Tourism Meeting on 1 April 2003
    Item 4 Appendix D Transcript for Culture, Sport and Tourism meeting on 1 April 2003. Chair: Welcome to this meeting of the London Assembly Culture, Sport and Tourism Committee. I’m Meg Hillier, the Chair of the Committee, and I’m joined by my colleagues Len Duvall and Mike Tuffrey. Danny Myers is the Committee Scrutiny Manager and Saba Master is the Committee Administrator. This is our second enquiry into the future of football stadia in London. Chair: There are nine witnesses here this evening; three from London’s football clubs, three from supporters trusts and supporters, and four from residents’ groups. Thank you very much for coming. Charles Koppel, please briefly outline why you saw the only future for Wimbledon FC to move to Milton Keynes? Charles Koppel: We did a considerable amount of work over a long period of time to find alternate locations for the club. A lot of that was done in partnership with Merton council, looking at sites within Merton. We also contacted approximately 35 other boroughs in and around South London and we appointed a leading planning and property firm to undertake a research report on our behalf. After all that came back with no options we realised we needed to look elsewhere. The Milton Keynes opportunity came along and we felt it appropriate to pursue it. Chair: You spent 12 years without a ground. How far a field were you prepared to go out of London? Charles Koppel: I’ve only been at the club for three years so I can’t speak for the previous nine, but it was a big issue for the club.

  • Programme Greater London Football League
    Main Sponsor Umbro is a British sportswear and football equipment supplier based in Cheadle, Greater Manchester. The company is currently a subsidiary of Iconix Brand Group. Umbro designs, sources, and markets football-related apparel, footwear, and equipment. Its products are sold in over 90 countries worldwide. The company was founded by Harold Humphreys, along with his brother Wallace in a small workshop in Wilmslow, Cheshire, inspired by the growing interest in football witnessed nationwide. The name "Umbro" is a quasi-portmanteau inspired from Humphreys Brothers Clothing. Umbro's kit debut was in the 1934 FA Cup final, when both teams Manchester City and Portsmouth wore uniforms designed and manufactured by the company. Other teams supplied by Umbro during the 1930s and 1940s were Sheffield United, Preston North End, Manchester United and Blackpool. Umbro was the official sports manufacturer of the English FA Cup and official sponsor of The FA, being the exclusive supplier of balls to the body's leagues. In 1952, the British team at the Summer Olympics wore Umbro kits, tailored for the needs of their individual sports. Umbro would supply kits for the British Olympics team for the next 20 years. In 1957 Umbro entered the tennis market, producing sports clothing in collaboration with player Ted Tinling. This collaboration extended for three decades. Another sportsman who collaborated with Umbro was Manchester United manager Matt Busby, in 1959. That same year the company started to sell its junior boys' kits, a set of shirt, shorts and socks that would allow young players to wear the same look as their footballing idols.
