Football Club Is in Making ASIA’s FIRST C PERATIVE FOOTBALL CLUB IS IN MAKING. www.smri.in We dare to dream India wins FIFA World Cup and an Indian football club defeats giant clubs like Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Manchester United at their home grounds. You can label our dreams as 'impossible good dreams' or 'madness'. But, some logic and history inspire our mad dreams. www.smri.in Who told only Celebrities, Crorepatis & Corporate houses can START a football club? Common People founded Uncommon Clubs! In 1895 a group of Oxbridge graduates founded the club Football Goal. In 1900 this club split into two different clubs New Foot-Ball de Madrid and Club Español de Madrid. In 1902 the latter club split again, resulting in the formation of Real Madrid FC on March 6, 1902. On 22 October 1899, Hans Gamper placed an advertisement in Los Deportes declaring his wish to form a football club; a positive response resulted in a meeting at the Gimnasio Solé on 29 November. Eleven players attended and Football Club Barcelona was born. When the Munich gymnastics club decided that the footballers of the club would not be allowed to join the German Football Association (DFB), eleven members of the football division left the congregation and on the same evening founded Fußball-Club Bayern München. Spanish club Athletic Bilbao is founded by British steel and shipyard workers and Basque students. Athletic Club de Madrid was founded on 26 April 1903 by three Basque students living in Madrid. These founders saw the new club as a youth branch of their childhood team, Athletic Bilbao. Common People founded Uncommon Clubs! Borussia Dortmund was founded on 19 December 1909 by a group of young men unhappy with church- sponsored Trinity Youth. Towards the end of the 1960s, an ambitious group of businessmen decided to create a major club in the French capital. They chose to merge their virtual side, Paris FC, with Stade Saint-Germain. Paris Saint-Germain Football Club (PSG), came into being in 1970. Members of St. Mark's Church of England, West Gorton, Manchester, founded the football club that would become known as Manchester City, for largely humanitarian purposes. Two church wardens sought to curb local gang violence and alcoholism by instituting new activities for local men, whilst high unemployment plagued East Manchester, specifically Gorton. All men were welcome to join, regardless of religion. On 3 April 1905, a group of Italian boys met to form a club. The house where the meeting was arranged was Esteban Baglietto's and the other people who attended were Alfredo Scarpatti, Santiago Sana and brothers Juan and Teodoro Farenga. After some hours of discussions Baglietto's father threw the boys out of the house and they had to continue with the project in the Plaza Solís, which is recognized today as the place where Boca Juniors was finally founded. If others can, why we Indians can’t? Who told only Celebrities, Crorepatis & Corporate houses can OWN a football club? World’s greatest football clubs are owned by common people! Most of the world's most valuable clubs are owned by its fans. Eg: REAL MADRID (Spain), FC BARCELONA (Spain), BAYERN MUNICH (Germany), ATHLETIC BILBAO (Spain), BORUSSIA DORTMUND (Germany) and BOCA JUNIORS (Argentina). Most of the football clubs in Spain and Argentina are owned by the fans. It is mandatory in Germany that minimum 51% of the shares of a football club must be with fans. If others can, why we Indians can’t? Who told only Celebrities, Crorepatis & Corporate houses can SAVE a football club? Manchester United was formed in 1878 as Newton Heath LYR Football Club. In January 1902, the club was served with a winding-up order. Captain Harry Stafford found four local businessmen, including John Henry Davies (who became club president), each willing to invest £500 in return for a direct interest in running the club. Subsequently the club also changed its name to Manchester United. Following the death of principal benefactor John Henry Davies in October 1927, the club's finances deteriorated to the extent that Manchester United would likely have gone bankrupt. In December 1931, a local rich man James W. Gibson invested £2,000 and assumed control of the club. Common people saved many clubs! Sinking football clubs like Northampton, Bristol City, Aldershot, Hull, Chariton and Portsmouth are survived with the support of common people fans. If others can, why we Indians can’t? WHY GREAT FOOTBALL CLUBS OWNED BY GREAT BUSINESS HOUSES LIKE MAHINDRA & JCT STOPPED THEIR GAME? Mahindra & JCT succeeded in every other business they started. But, failed in football business, because football is a different business. Indian football will die and foreign football clubs will reign Indian football market with their merchandise and increased viewership for their matches. Indian fans will continue erecting hoarding for Brazil and Argentina. Celebrated Indian football leagues will live with retired foreign players. If we don’t want to kill Indian football, we must play the new game of football business. WHY WE CAN’T Why We Indian’s Can’t create a football club, which defeats world’s football giants such as Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Manchester United in fame & game? Why We Indian’s can’t create a football club, which produces thousands of Messis? Why we can’t create a football club which contribute maximum players to Indian football team to win Fifa World cup? ONLY PEOPLE OWNED FOOTBALL CLUBS CAN SAVE INDIAN FOOTBALL. Existing Indian football clubs don’t have a strong/loyal supporter base due to its primitive football business practices. We need to strengthen the existing clubs with new structural changes and management practices. We need to start new PEOPLE OWNED FOOTBALL CLUBS across India. People will feel ownership and will encourage their clubs to be the top. The result will be strong football culture in India. So the only option to save Indian football is PEOPLE OWNED FOOTBALL CLUBS. More than 200 supporter owned football clubs are working in UK under the guidance of Supporter Direct, which is founded by Brian Lomax to save the then sinking Northampton FC in 1992. BRIAN LOMAX Founder of Supporters Direct, ASIA’s FIRST C PERATIVE FOOTBALL CLUB People Ownership opens up a number of benefits to a Club that are much harder to achieve or not possible to achieve in a privately owned Club.

  • WHEAT STUDIES of the FOOD RESEARCH INSTITUTE
    WHEAT STUDIES of the FOOD RESEARCH INSTITUTE VOL. XVII, NO. 7 (Price $1.00) APRIL 1941 WHEAT IN THE POST -SURPLUS PERIOD 1900-09 WITH RECENT ANALOGIES AND CONTRASTS Helen C Farnsworth The wheat-surplus period of the 1890's was followed by a decade characterized by extremely heavy wheat output. In per capita terms, this output was larger than that respon­ sible for the burdensome surplus stocks of the mid-'nineties or that later associated with the depressing surplus of 1928- 35. But the early years of this century witnessed no piling up of surplus stocks comparable with the accumulations of 1892-96 and 1929-35. Historical and statistical analysis sug­ gests that this extraordinary outcome was largely due to three factors: (1) the sharper upward trend and higher level of per capita normal wheat disappearance in the early 1900's; (2) the more favorable timing of crop surpluses and deficits in those years; and (3) the fact that wheat disappearance was then farther above normal than in 1928-35. In the absence of burdensome wheat stocks, the purchas­ ing power of British import wheat, trend considered, was moderate rather than low during 1898-1909. Except in 1898- 99 and 1901-02, deflated prices of such wheat reflected rea­ sonably well the wheat commodity position of each of the crop years considered. From about 1902 to the beginning of the World War, the trend of purchasing power of British import wheat was horizontal, in sharp contrast with down­ ward trends during the 15 to 20 years prior to 1902 and from 1922 to 1939.

    Vermont Society of Colonial Dames Records, 1897-1943 Doc 186 Introduction This collection contains the records of the Vermont Society of Colonial Dames as kept by its president, Sarah S. (Mrs. Wallace) Clement, for the period 1897-1943. The correspondence probably came to the Vermont Historical Society through the family of Sarah S. Clement.
