  • On March 20Th, Tony Adams MBE Was Introduced to a Packed Visits Hall At
    “I was a goofy kid. Big nose, big ears. I felt awkward and scared, I just didn’t fit in. I couldn’t talk to girls.” In fact Tony even told us about ‘Juicy Lucy’, his imaginary girlfriend. At a time when lads didn’t talk about their problems football was his escape. He loved to play and had some natural talent. Every spare minute was spent with a ball. His dedication was rewarded when he signed for Arsenal schoolboys at age 13, before signing his first professional contract at age 16. Tony then described the moment that he broke his toe. “It was weird. On the pitch, everything was perfect. But off the pitch, everything was a mess. Football brought me loads of praise, On March 20th, Tony Adams MBE was so my ego was through the roof, but my self introduced to a packed visits hall at our prison. This esteem was so low.

  • AUC Kinanthrophologica 2 2015 4438.Indd
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS CAROLINAE KINANTHROPOLOGICA Vol. 51, 2 – 2015 Pag. 5–19 CARDIFF METROPOLITAN UNIVERSITY, CARDIFF SCHOOL OF SPORT FOOTBALL, ALCOHOL AND GAMBLING: AN UNHOLY TRINITY? CARWYN JONES ABSTRACT In this paper I argue that football plays a questionable role in promoting two potentially problematic activities, namely drinking alcohol and gambling. Gambling and alcohol companies sponsor clubs and competitions and also pay to advertise their products at the stadia and during television coverage. Consequently millions of fans, including children, are exposed to the marketing of these restricted products. The latter are exposed despite regulations that prohibit such advertising and promotion in other contexts. The promotion of these activities to children and to adults increases levels of consumption which in turn increases the number of problem drinkers and gamblers in society. High-profile football- ers play a further role in normalising drinking and gambling. They are role models whose actions influence others. Their excessive drinking and gambling activities provide poor examples for football fans, young and old. Keywords: alcohol; gambling; football; role models; promotion DOI: 10.14712/23366052.2015.28 INTRODUCTION When watching football, particularly elite level professional football in the UK, it is clear that two activities are closely aligned, namely drinking alcohol and gambling. The gam- bling and alcohol industries know that one sure way to access their customers or poten- tial customers is through football, so they invest millions of pounds sponsoring clubs, tournaments, and leagues, and advertise their products during today’s extensive televised football coverage. Drinking beer and betting on the result of matches (or on the likelihood of some event during the game) either at home, in the pub or at the match is an obliga- tory complement the spectacle of the game for many fans.

  • TONY ADAMS ARSENAL LEGEND Fourteen Years As Arsenal Captain, 669 Appearances and 10 Major Trophies Including Winning the Top League in 3 Different Decades
    ARSENAL HOME LEARNING TONY ADAMS ARSENAL LEGEND Fourteen years as Arsenal captain, 669 appearances and 10 major trophies including winning the top league in 3 different decades. It is no surprise that Tony Adams, known as ‘Mr Arsenal’, is seen as one of the club’s greatest ever players. Tony was the ultimate one-club man and a rock in the Arsenal defence. He was the leader of the famous defensive ‘Back Four’ of Adams, Bould, Dixon and Winterburn. Adams was a supreme defender; the timing of his tackles, his aerial ability and reading of the game were excellent. His incredible resilience, desire and leadership made him irreplaceable for both Arsenal and England. Adams signed for Arsenal as a schoolboy in 1980. Three years later he made his debut against Sunderland just four weeks after his 17th birthday. By 21 he had become Arsenal’s youngest ever captain. He went on to win 4 League titles, 3 FA Cups, 2 League cups and the European Cup Winners’ Cup. He won the league and cup double in both 1998 and 2002. Tony’s hugely successful career at Arsenal made sure he will always be a legend at the club. The Arsenal fans remember him as one of the greatest players to wear the red and white shirt. There is even a statue of Adams outside Emirates Stadium! ARSENAL IN THE COMMUNITY 2020 #AFCHOMELEARNING ARSENAL HOME LEARNING TONY ADAMS ARSENAL LEGEND 1.

  • Alcohol and the Sportsperson: an Anomalous Alliance
    Alcohol and the Sportsperson: An Anomalous Alliance1 Wray Vamplew Sports Studies, University of Stirling Published on the Internet, www.idrottsforum.org (ISSN 1652–7224) 2007–02–14 Copyright © Wray Vamplew 2007. All rights reserved. Except for the quotation of short passages for the purposes of criticism and review, no part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted, in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior permission of the author. Sport and alcohol is indeed an anomalous alliance, albeit so commonplace as to appear almost trivial, and thus superficially drained of any deeper significance. It is, however, of the utmost importance to recognize this as a very real problem. Historically, the culture of sport is closely associated with the consumption of alcohol, as is so often the case when men – and it usually was men in those early days of sports – get together to socialize; other exam- ples of the situational logic in play here are political and trade union movements. In Sweden, the development of organized sports coincided with the rise of a particularly powerful tem- perance movement, which served to put a check on alcohol abuse in the sports movement as well, and the morality and mentality thus established has proven exceedingly robust. This is clearly evident in the documents outlining the alcohol policy of the Swedish Sports Con- federation – and in the reactions from that powerful organization when the implementation of those policies is put into question. In the UK the situation is different.
