    Wimbledon FC to Milton Keynes This Summer Is a Critical Moment in London’S Football History

    Culture, Sport and Tourism Away from home Scrutiny of London’s Football Stadiums June 2003 Culture, Sport and Tourism Away from home Scrutiny of London’s Football Stadiums June 2003 copyright Greater London Authority June 2003 Published by Greater London Authority City Hall The Queen’s Walk London SE1 2AA www.london.gov.uk enquiries 020 7983 4100 minicom 020 7983 4458 ISBN 1 85261 496 1 Cover photograph credit EMPICS Sports Photo Agency This publication is printed on recycled paper Chair’s Foreword The move by Wimbledon FC to Milton Keynes this summer is a critical moment in London’s football history. This move prompted the London Assembly’s Culture, Sport and Tourism committee to look into the issue of redevelopment for London clubs. With Fulham and Brentford yet to secure new stadiums for their clubs and question marks remaining over Arsenal’s and Tottenham’s grounds the issue is a live one. We do not want to see more clubs leave London. During the 2002/03 season about 5 million fans watched professional football in London. In addition, hundreds of thousands of Londoners participate every year in club sponsored community projects and play football. This report seeks to ensure that this added value isn’t lost to Londoners. We did not set out to judge local situations but to tease out lessons learnt by London football clubs. Football is more than just a business: the ties that a club has with its area and the fans that live or come from there are great. We recommend that more clubs have supporters on their board and applaud the work of Supporters Direct in rejuvenating the links between clubs and their fan base.

    Aug 02Nd Bible Reading: Isaiah 61

    The Benefice of Upper Wensleydale Trinity 8 Edition 20 ‘Church in the Home’ Sunday August 02nd– Saturday August 08th From the Vicarage The word ‘Praise’ appears hundreds of times in the Bible and we read of the call to praise God throughout its pages. The psalmists praised God in the good times and in the bad. Praise is certainly about thanking God for all he has done, is doing and will do, but it goes deeper than that. Praise is about declaring the truth of who God is and rejoicing in that knowledge and that is something that we are all called to do. Paul reminds us that praising God changes us. Philippians 4:4-7 It recalibrates the way we look at the world, changes our experience of it and our ministry within it. As we return to our buildings this Sunday for public worship for the first time in 20 weeks, there is much to praise God for. Some things, however, will be a little different as we manage the space and the way we do things; e.g. restrictions on us singing and sharing the chalice in communion, but I’m sure that our ability and desire to gather together to praise God as community will override all of these issues. I am extremely grateful to the teams of folks who have worked so hard in preparing the buildings on your behalf to ensure that they are clean and safe. In recognition of this Visit Britain have awarded us with the ‘We’re Good to Go’ accreditation Sadly, our family services will have to continue on line for a little while longer as the resources and materials that we use in our times together have had to be removed.
