  • Temporada 2000 / 2001
    TEMPORADA 2000/2001 PRESENTACIÓN Es imprescindible que empiece la presentación de esta memoria correspondiente a la tempora- da 2000 / 2001 con un emocionado recuerdo a D. Antonio Baró Armengol, a cuyo cargo estuvo el mando del fútbol profesional español en estos últimos catorce años, en los cuales hemos vivido un extraordinario desarrollo de nuestra actividad y hemos asistido al éxito de nuestros clubes y S.A.D. en el concierto internacional. Su talante comprensivo y negociador han marcado una lí- nea a la que no podemos ni queremos renunciar, siempre con el reto de mejorar las condiciones en las que se desenvuelve nuestra función. La sucesión de Antonio Baró significa- ba, también, un momento decisivo para la Liga Nacional de Fútbol Pro- fesional que no había vivido ningunas elecciones a lo largo de su historia. Se trataba de mantener la unidad entre todos los clubes y dar un paso al fren- te hacia los nuevos tiempos, con una organización avanzada, eficaz y preparada para dejar oír su voz en los nuevos escenarios que se plantean en el nuevo siglo. Por ello, la mayoría de nuestros clubes y S.A.D. apostaron por una presidencia profesional y a plena dedicación que supone todo un reto personal y una gran ilusión para mí y para mi equipo. Con ese orgullo y esa ilusión nos hemos puesto a trabajar inmediatamente porque el tiempo apre- mia y la LFP quiere seguir siendo el referente del fútbol profesional europeo, una cotización que 4 nos hemos ganado a pulso en estos últimos años, tión, de manera que ninguna amenaza enturbie tanto en el terreno de juego como en los campos el trabajo bien hecho.

  • Media Accreditation for European/South American Cup
    Media Release Date: 15/11/2004 Communiqué aux médias No. 135 Medien-Mitteilung Media accreditation for European/South American Cup November deadline for FC Porto v CD Once Caldas in Yokohama on 12 December On Sunday 12 December 2004, with kick-off scheduled for 19:05 local time, the annual Toyota European / South American Cup fixture will be played at the International Stadium in Yokohama, Japan. The match will be handled by Uruguayan referee Jorge Larrionda. This year’s intercontinental encounter pits the UEFA Champions League winners, FC Porto, against the winners of the Copa Libertadores, CD Once Caldas. It is the second appearance for the Portuguese club in this competition – they defeated Peñarol of Montevideo 2-1 after extra-time to take the title in 1987 – while it is the first time that their Colombian opponents have represented South America in this fixture. Written Press reporters and photographers who wish to cover the game in Yokohama are requested to complete the attached Accreditation Request form and return it by Monday 22 November directly to Japan on fax: +81-3-5467 3483, paying special attention to the note about orders for telephone or ISDN lines in the stadium. As you will see from the Accreditation Request form, the deadline is given as Monday 22 November. However, bearing in mind that many reporters – including those who regularly accompany FC Porto – will be on the road for UEFA Champions League matches at that time, the Japanese organisers have kindly agreed to allow UEFA’s Media Services to forward accreditation requests to them up till Thursday 25 November.
