Aleksandar a R
D ALEKS URIC For ReviewA only ND ALEKSANDAR A R BEYOND BORDERS DURIC WITH GLENN WRAY BEYOND BORDERS THIS IS THE INCREDIBLE STORY OF “An inspirational read.” ALEKSANDAR DURIC Bryan Robson Former captain of England Born in Bosnia in the former Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and Manchester United Aleksandar Duric overcame a difficult childhood to become a junior canoeing champion. Against all odds, he made an unlikely appearance at the 1992 Olympic Games whilst the fires of the Bosnian War raged in his homeland, a war that had tragic consequences for the Duric family. A nomadic career in football followed, before Duric finally found his feet — and his home — in Singapore. It was in this Southeast Asian nation that Duric truly made his name, becoming an all-conquering force in Singapore’s top domestic league and going on to represent the Singapore national team more than 50 times. Told in a refreshingly frank and honest manner, Beyond Borders is far more than a footballer’s memoir. Duric’s tale of tragedy and triumph, adversity and adventure, is as surprising as it is inspiring. “A gripping account of hardship, heart and hustle with almost no connection to the glamour and glory that fans associate with the modern-day game.” Steve Dawson, presenter, Fox Sports Asia Marshall Cavendish BIOGRAPHY/SPORT Editions ISBN 978-981-4751-05-6 ,!7IJ8B4-hfbafg! For Review only “Aleks has been a superb ambassador for Singaporean football. His professionalism is exemplary and to this day he remains a role model to all professional footballers for his discipline and dedication. -

The Road to Fame Or Failure? . 206 Chapter 1 The Demise S a teenager, Thomas Morgan, from inner-city Dublin, had Sir Alex Ferguson in his living room, A trying to persuade the 15-year-old midfielder to abandon his plans to join Blackburn Rovers. They were emerging as title rivals to Ferguson’s Manchester United and he was keen for Morgan to move to Old Trafford. Morgan chose Blackburn, signing for the Ewood Park side in 1994. A year later, Blackburn won their one and only Premier League title. But despite training with the league-winning squad, and making the bench for league and European matches, Morgan found himself released – and without a club – almost three years later. It was only weeks before captaining the Ireland Under-20s to a third-place finish in the 1997 World Championships in Malaysia. Put simply, Morgan fell by the wayside as Blackburn – and their Premier League rivals – regularly shunned the promotion of youth in favour of big-money signings. The 19 WHERE HAVE ALL THE IRISH GONE? birth of the Premier League in 1992 ushered in an era of stellar signings, compounded by the Bosman ruling in 1995, which removed obstacles to foreign players playing in England – a double whammy which would change the fortunes of Irish players for ever. -

These reports were primarily addressed to the World Outgames 2009 Board and the main partner, the City of Copenhagen. And similarly to the general public. Reporting has taken the form of half-yearly status reports and covered all significant aspects of developing, organizing and holding a large, and therefore often complex, international project such as World Outgames 2009 has been and still is. A total of four half-yearly reports have been issued: • June 2007 • December 2007 • June 2008 • December 2008 Parallel to those reports, other memos or larger documents have been produced from time to time to support decision-making processes by the Board or as submissions to debates in the Culture and Leisure Committee at Copenhagen City Hall. In particular, the following memos and documents should be highlighted: • World Outgames Prospectus December 2008 • Program Brief February 2009 • Financial Brief March 2009 When writing this document, we want to give a final project status shortly before the event begins, and also to highlight the most important internal and external challenges the secretariat has encountered along the way. -
