It is obvious that the economic recession continues to affect the leisure industry in a major way and clubs are most certainly not excluded. In times such as these it is essential that expenditure is given close scrutiny to best determine where savings can be made. It is foolish to keep premises open on certain days if it is costing you money to do so and a number of clubs have obviously already taken steps to make savings in this area. I like to be optimistic and hope that we are now passing the worst of the downturn and as we enter the Christmas period may see a seasonal upturn to provide a little respite for management committees throughout the province. On 2nd November I was in attendance at a meeting of an industry group to discuss the format for a ‘Code of Practice’ to target the problem areas associated with anti-social behaviour and the health issues This concluded the meeting through alcohol abuse. The representative of ‘MEAS’ the body established in the Republic to target at which point the Chairman similar problems provided an excellent overview of how they have progressed since their inception in thanked Dermot Rollins, 2002. Various questions were posed by those in attendance to ascertain how effective ‘MEAS’ have been Sponsor and representatives in attaining their goals. It has to be said there was a certain amount of ambiguity in the reply to some of of the Royal Naval Club for the questions, as the reduction in such things as alcohol consumption could, for instance, be associated hosting the meeting and for with the high cost of alcohol in the South. the generous hospitality which Patricia McAllister of the Liquor License Review Team confirmed they were monitoring how matters preceded and followed the on minimum pricing progressed in Scotland. We remain of the opinion that education similar to that meeting. adopted in targeting smoking is the only real way forward, but of course that requires copious amounts of funding. It is certain that there is no quick fix to the problem now faced by society. Bob McGlone Secretary, Finally, I am concerned that yet another club Northern Ireland appears to have been subjected to overzealous PSNI Federation of Clubs visits underlining the importance of the NIFC’s wish to bring PSNI Rights of Entry into line with the manner in which other sectors are governed.

  • Willie Bell – Hewn of Scottish Granite
    Players – Willie Bell – Hewn of Scottish granite Willie Bell was an unsung hero of Leeds United’s rise to prominence during the Sixties. He was never as big a name as his defensive compatriots, Gary Sprake, Paul Reaney, Jack Charlton and Norman Hunter, but he was a consistent force at left-back for the Yorkshiremen between 1962 and 1967. Always more than willing to risk life and limb for the cause and throw himself in where it hurts, Bell was an unashamed hard man, renowned for his determination and guts, difficult to beat in the tackle and a good distributor of the ball. Norman Hunter: “The real hard men were those who went into challenges without even sensing danger or caring how they might end up. They were truly fearless. Willie Bell was one of the bravest men I have seen in my life. He never blinked, he never flinched, he just went for it.” Bell was also a fiery individual who could be expected to stand up for himself when needs must, as evidenced by one incident in 1967. On their way to a semi final clash with Chelsea in the FA Cup, Leeds had to endure a marathon battle in the fifth round against Willie Bell ... Scottish hammer Sunderland and there was a crowd invasion towards the end of the second replay at Boothferry Park. Johnny Giles snatched a late winner from a dubious penalty, sparking a pitch invasion. Billy Bremner: “As the ball went into the Sunderland net, some of their supporters went wild. They surged on to the pitch to vent their displeasure in no uncertain terms and one fellow, twirling a haversack round and round in the air, made straight for Willie Bell.

  • Celtic FC V Manchester United FC MATCH PRESS KIT Celtic Park, Glasgow Tuesday, 21 November 2006 - 20:45CET Group F - Matchday 5
    Celtic FC v Manchester United FC MATCH PRESS KIT Celtic Park, Glasgow Tuesday, 21 November 2006 - 20:45CET Group F - Matchday 5 Motivation will definitely not be a problem when Celtic FC lock horns with Manchester United FC in Glasgow. Defeat for both teams on Matchday 4 has raised the stakes even higher in a contest in which a point for United will guarantee their progression to the knockout rounds. A win or draw will be enough for United, with maximum points securing them top spot. Celtic, meanwhile, can qualify if they win and the other Group F fixture between SL Benfica and FC København ends all-square. A 1-0 or 2-1 win, or any victory by a two-goal margin, would also be enough provided København do not win. Add the traditional spice of any Anglo-Scottish encounter and a gripping evening beckons. • Celtic's hopes of advancing from the group stage for the first time were dented by a 3-0 loss at Benfica on 1 November. There was no way back after going two down early on through a tenth-minute Gary Caldwell own goal and Nuno Gomes effort (22). Andrei Karyaka added a third goal 14 minutes from time. • That defeat maintained Celtic's miserable away record in the UEFA Champions League, where over four campaigns they have still not managed a win or clean sheet on their travels. Home comforts • At home the Scottish champions are a different proposition, with eight victories in eleven games.
