  • John Aldridge a Real Irishman by Matthew Brown
    John Aldridge A Real Irishman By Matthew Brown [1] This article is a case study of an Irishman in Spain. It is not a conventional story - there are no Wild Geese and religion plays no part in the protagonist’s travels. Instead, a Liverpudlian spends two years in San Sebastián, learns very little Spanish, scores a lot of goals, gets spat on, and goes home to play for Tranmere Rovers. It concludes by concurring with Eduardo Galeano’s observation that football, travel and national identity are bound together in surprising ways, that ‘el fútbol y la patria están siempre atados’ (Galeano 1995: 38). Who was John William Aldridge? He was born in Liverpool on 18 September 1958. He played football for Newport County and Oxford United, before moving to Liverpool. He won the League Championship in 1988 at the end of his first full season, though he famously became the first person to miss a penalty kick in the British F.A. Cup final, seeing his kick saved by Wimbledon goalkeeper Dave Beasant. The following season Aldridge was on the pitch during the tragic Hillsbor- ough stadium disaster, in which ninety-six football supporters were killed. This event affected Aldridge profoundly. Within six months Aldridge had left Liverpool and signed for Real Sociedad in the Basque Country. During this same period Aldridge established himself in the Irish national team managed by Jack Charlton. It is not the intention of this article to explore just how Irish Aldridge ‘really was’ in the face of his birth, accent and home. He played plenty of times for the Irish national team during its most successful period.

    14/07/2016 Rio rescinde contrato e abandona último legado ambiental da Olimpíada ­ 17/03/2016 ­ UOL Olimpíadas Rio rescinde contrato e abandona último legado ambiental da Olimpíada ­ 17/03/2016 ­ UOL Olimpíadas Rio poluído (esq) deságua em lagoa ao lado de obra do Parque Olímpico do Rio imagem: Mario Moscatelli/Olho Verde Vinicius Konchinski Do UOL, no Rio de Janeiro Nenhum dos grandes projetos ambientais ligados à Olimpíada será concluído antes do início dos Jogos. Após o governo do Rio atrasar a despoluição da Baía de Guanabara e a limpeza das lagoas da região do Parque Olímpico, foi a vez da prefeitura abandonar o projeto de recuperação de rios cariocas anunciado com legado da Rio­2016 para a cidade. A limpeza e canalização dos rios, todos da Bacia de Jacarepaguá, estão previstas no chamado caderno de encargos dos Jogos Olímpicos de 2016 –documento que reúne compromissos assumidos por conta do evento. Mesmo assim, a execução dos serviços prometidos ao COI (Comitê Olímpico Internacional) parou no final do ano passado após sucessivos atrasos. Por conta desses atrasos, aliás, a prefeitura do Rio rescindiu no final de dezembro o contrato que mantinha com o Consórcio Rios de Jacarepaguá para a recuperação da hidrográfica da região. O consórcio é formado por duas construtoras, a Andrade Gutierrez e a Carioca Engenharia. Ambas estão envolvidas em esquemas de corrupção apurados na Operação Lava­Jato. As empresas foram contratadas em 2011 para recuperar seis rios cariocas (Covanca, Pechinca, Tindiba, Banda da Velha, Rio Pequeno e Rio Grande). Receberiam quase R$ 236 milhões pelos serviços, que deveriam ter sido concluídos ainda em 2014.

  • Football's Lost Decade
    FOOTBALL’S Contrary to what Sky TV might have you believe, football did exist before 1992. In fact, the 1980s saw cultural and political change that shaped the modern game. But while LOST football wasn’t cool, some of us still loved it. Jon Howe looks back with nostalgia at the DECADE decade that football forgot... A game you might have forgotten Leeds United 1 Aston Villa 2 n August 16, 1980 The usual season-opening optimism was somewhat missing from Elland Road in August 1980. Despite the signing of Argentinean Alex Sabella for £400,000 from Sheffield United, Leeds fans were still smarting from a mediocre 11th-place finish the previous season, plus early and humiliating exits from both domestic cups and the UEFA Cup. It is safe to say that the words “Adamson out!” were not far from the vocal majority’s lips and they would be heard again before this afternoon was out. A Leeds fan in denial is a dangerous Alex Sabella in beast, and nobody liked to admit they action against were watching a club in transition, Aston Villa particularly when the direction of change was heading alarmingly the wrong way.
