Uefa backs Manchester United fans complaints over Marseille police
A negative attitude by police to supporters in general Improvements for away fans have already taken placeUefa has pledged to "pay close attention" to the treatment of away supporters at Marseille after accepting the complaints of Manchester United fans who were beaten by police and subjected to dangerous crushes.Marseille, who host Arsenal on 19 October, have changed the away access at the Stade Velodrome after Uefa started to investigate the incidents before and after Uniteds match in France in the last 16 of the Champions League in February.Various supporters groups, including Reds Away, have been working with the Football supporters Federation to instigate a full Uefa inquiry after reports of fans being kept in a holding area, known as Hall 7, before the match and struck with batons. After the game there was only one gate to leave through and more reports of injuries.Uefas head of match-day operations, Marl Vouillamoz, has now written to the federation to say he has "no reason to doubt the veracity of the supporters accounts of events" and that there was "a negative attitude on the part of the police to supporters in general".Vouillamoz wrote that "Uefa will be paying close attention to the treatment of away supporters at this venue during the coming season", although he indicated the trouble was caused by "the late arrival of many United supporters and the disorderly behaviour of a small minority".Uefa has studied a security report from Marseilles home game last month against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League to discover whether the United incident was a one-off or part of something more serious."We will be talking to Marseille," Vouillamoz writes. "It is, however, of interest that the report highlights an improvement in the access arrangements for away supporters and an improvement in facilities in Hall 7. These changes include better queuing systems and control ... and escorting of smaller groups than those on previous occasions."The Guardian has been told by senior figures in Greater Manchester police they were deeply unhappy about the actions of their French counterparts, believing them to be "baton-happy" and ignoring the advice of the officers who regularly travel with Uniteds supporters and had warned many fans would arrive late.UefaMarseilleManchester UnitedChampions League 2011-12Champions LeagueDaniel Taylor guardian.co.uk © 2011 Guardian News and Media Limited or its affiliated companies.

Rangers warn fans about sectarian singing in Manchester United game
Club warns it will be punished if singing is offensive Uefa has fined Rangers before for fans chantsRangers have issued a warning to supporters over possible Uefa punishment of the club for sectarian singing ahead of the match with Manchester United at Ibrox.The Scottish champions have been subject to scrutiny and punishment from European footballs governing body before on account of the conduct of their fans and sectarian singing has made a comeback at recent Rangers matches.A statement read: "The light blues have been informed by a number of sources that sectarian behaviour will put the club at serious risk of punishment from Uefa and other footballing authorities. This includes the singing of songs such as the Billy Boys which is banned by Uefa."In making what he hopes will be a pre-emptive strike, the Rangers chief executive, Martin Bain, added: "The majority of our supporters agree that sectarian singing has no place at Rangers and, working together, the fans and the club have made great strides in recent years to address this behaviour."Indeed, a number of fans themselves have raised the issue of sectarian singing recently and the club made an appeal at our AGM for it to stop, which was overwhelmingly backed by those present."Unfortunately, there are still those who ignore the club and their fellow fans, with no regard for the consequences of their actions. We are making it very clear to supporters we have reliable information that if sectarian singing is evident at our matches, it will put the club at serious risk of punishment and also puts supporters at risk of arrest."Our position as a club is that we condemn all forms of sectarian behaviour and we are united with our supporters groups in trying to eradicate it. Fans who engage in such behaviour only let themselves, other supporters and the club down."RangersChampions LeagueEwan Murray guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Glamorgan Cricket wishes to reaffirm that such behaviour will not be tolerated."The behaviour of the group, from Ynysygerwn Cricket Club (including a number of their first XI players and coaches), caused huge upset to the players and coaching staff from both teams.

Labour backs supporters Direct over cut
Fans group to lose Premier League grant following Twitter row Shadow sports secretary calls for change of heartLabour has called on the Premier League to safeguard the future of the fan-ownership organisation supporters Direct by reversing a 1.2m funding cut imposed in the wake of a bitter row over the behaviour of its former chief executive.The organisation, founded in 2000 to provide a support network for supporters trusts, was left facing a severe funding crisis after its grant from the Football Stadia Improvement Fund was rescinded due to its handling of a row over abusive tweets sent by Dave Boyle.The Guardian revealed last week that the FSIFs 1.2m grant to supporters Direct had been withdrawn. The funds board members were dissatisfied with the response from the chair, Dame Pauline Green, to a string of tweets sent by the former chief executive to celebrate AFC Wimbledons promotion to the Football League last month.At an emergency supporters Direct board meeting on Saturday, Boyles resignation was accepted. Boyle, a passionate advocate for greater fan involvement, had already apologised for his "crude and offensive" language and deleted the tweets. Brian Burgess, the acting chief executive, has been charged with seeking a meeting with the FSIF to resubmit its grant application.Ivan Lewis, the shadow culture, media and sport secretary, said the organisation should have its funding reinstated immediately. "supporters Direct provides a vital voice for football fans across the country," he said. "That voice is needed more than ever before as debates rage about the conduct of Fifa and domestic football governance."The Premier League should now reinstate the level of funding they had planned to make available prior to the dispute over the behaviour of the then chief executive. Any other differences between the Premier League and supporters Direct should be resolved through constructive dialogue free from the threat of funding cuts."But the Premier League will argue that the decision was taken at arms length, although it funds the FSIF to the tune of 6m a year, including 750,000 ringfenced for a new Fans Fund.Premier LeagueOwen Gibson guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Scottish FA demands apology from Brazil over claims of racism
SFA dismayed at the allegations made after friendly Apology demanded on behalf of our supportersThe Scottish Football Association has written to its Brazilian counterpart to demand an apology for allegations of racism made by Neymar in the aftermath of Sundays friendly between the teams in London.Neymar mistakenly believed he had been the recipient of racist abuse after being booed by Scotland supporters during the game at the Emirates Stadium, saying after the game that "this atmosphere of racism is totally sad". That theory was seemingly endorsed when a banana was thrown onto the pitch after Neymar scored his second goal of the match.A subsequent investigation proved the banana was thrown by a German tourist and with no racist intent. The jeering was clearly a result of perceived play-acting.The SFA believes, though, that wide damage may have been done to the reputation of the Tartan Army by Neymars comments, and said in a statement it was "dismayed at the allegations, which were flashed around the world".Stewart Regan, its chief executive, added: "It is very disappointing that this episode threatened to overshadow an entertaining match, played amidst a real carnival atmosphere created by supporters of both teams. Scotland and Brazil have played many times over the years, each time in a colourful and friendly environment, and we feel that its necessary to draw a line under Sundays events."Scotlands supporters were genuinely upset and annoyed that the unfounded allegations levelled against them threatened to sully their reputation as fair, good humoured and respectful spectators."As the matter has been resolved, and Scotland supporters cleared of any involvement, we felt it was only right that we acted on behalf of our supporters to request an apology either from the player involved, or the Brazilian FA."ScotlandBrazilEwan Murray guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Red Knights United takeover hopes fade
Troubled consortium confirms bid is not imminent Inflated valuation has made our goals less attainableThe prospect of a successful takeover of Manchester United by the Red Knights appears to be fading after the consortium admitted that the clubs "inflated valuation has made our goals less attainable".Last month The Guardian revealed internal divisions within the group, and the belief of key members that persuading the Glazer family to relinquish control would prove impossible.In their statement, the consortium maintain they remain committed to "helping bring ownership of Manchester United to its supporters, and under a structure with materially less debt." However the consortium also suggested that finances meant there was little likelihood of an imminent bid.The statement read: "Persistent speculation in the media of inflated valuation aspirations has made our goals less attainable, as potential investors have strongly reinforced our views that we should not move forward at a price uneconomic for the future of the club."We understand that many supporters were hoping that we might be in a position to make a bid before the season ticket renewal deadline. However, our approach is best served by long term interests of all. We have never taken a stance on season ticket renewals, it is a personal choice for all supporters."We have spent some considerable time assessing the value of the club. If the fundamentals lead to a more realistic re-assessment then, along with our co-operation with MUST and other Manchester United supporters, we will aim to achieve our goals."Manchester United guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Arsenal hail new model of top-flight club ownership
Campaign for democratic involvement led by supporters Direct First example of top club encouraging fans to buy sharesThe Arsenal Fanshare scheme is a landmark in the campaign to encourage mutual, democratic supporter involvement in football clubs, which is led by the organisation supporters Direct.The opposition to the "leveraged buyouts" by the Glazer family at Manchester United, and by Tom Hicks and George Gillett at Liverpool, is being led by formally constituted supporters trusts, which have been established at 160 clubs at all levels in Britain.Arsenal Fanshare is the first example of a top club co-operating with its trust actively to encourage its fans to buy shares and have a voice in the clubs running. The prohibitive cost of buying club shares has meant just one professional club in England is fully supporter-owned, Exeter City in League One.Elsewhere in Europe, many football clubs remain majority supporter-owned, including Barcelona and Real Madrid, and all but two clubs in the German Bundesliga.ArsenalBusinessDavid Conn guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

The Frenchman described it as "a great idea", saying that supporters were the only people who had a genuine "identity" with clubs.According to the plan, to be part of the Labour Party election manifesto, fans could take up to a 25% stake in a club to ease concerns over increasing levels of debt of Premier League clubs and foreign ownership."Personally, I think it is a great idea ... that the supporters invest in a club because they at the end of the day defend the clubs identity," Platini said. "They are always there. They are always watching the games."

Footballs debt, dysfunction and dissentPlatini said the decision over who can buy a club and how should be made by national governments, adding that he liked the Spanish system where, for example, Barcelona and Real Madrid are owned by fan groups known as socios."There are clubs now where the president is not a national of the country, the coach is not of a national of the country and the players are not nationals of the country. The only ones to have any kind of identity are the supporters," he said. supporters Direct has meanwhile reacted positively to Labours proposals, and to an interview with the shadow sports minister, Hugh Robertson, in which he also talks about the need for supporters to be guaranteed representation in clubs."The two parties - one of which will form the basis of the next government - both agree fans should have a stake in the clubs they support and are pledged to work to make it happen," said Dave Boyle, the chief executive. "Thats great news for the trust movement and long-overdue recognition that clubs arent businesses like any other."We look forward to the next government - whoever it is - putting fans at the heart of the game and we will work with them to make it happen."Michel PlatiniUefaPremier LeagueFootball politicsLabourSimon Burnton guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Conservatives call government plans on club ownership a gimmick
Shadow sports minister derides Labour scheme Plan would force clubs to give equity to supporters groupsA government plan that could see clubs forced to hand over 25% of their shares to supporters groups has been attacked as "a pre-election gimmick" by the Conservatives.As exclusively revealed by the Guardian, Labour is considering giving fans first refusal on the purchase of shares in their clubs when they are put up for sale, and clubs could be required to hand over up to a quarter of the total stock to supporters groups.The move comes after growing unease about levels of debt in some of the top Premier League clubs, with a group of Manchester United supporters known as the Red Knights attempting to take over from the Glazer family. In detail: Browns blueprint for reforming football David Conn: A vote-winner by the government? Footballs debt, dysfunction and dissentThe shadow sports minister, Hugh Robertson, claimed there are easier ways of increasing supporter influence in clubs, such as by insisting on them all having at least one director to represent supporters.Robertson told the Press Association: "After 13 years of inactivity by the government on this issue, this has all the hallmarks of a pre-election gimmick. There are massive, massive implications for company law and insolvency law."Robertson claimed changing the rules on governance to increase supporter influence would be quicker and easier.No10 is expected to include the plans as part of Labours general election manifesto. Other strategies being considered include giving the football authorities a deadline to reform the FA and removing "vested interests" from the board. It would also give the leagues and the FA more power in ratifying takeovers of clubs.ConservativesLabourFootball politicsPremier League guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Rangers tell ticketless fans to stay away from Manchester Champions League tie
Club and fans groups tell ticketless to stay at home Police on alert after behaviour of some fans in 2008The Rangers chief executive, Martin Bain, has urged fans without tickets not to travel to Manchester for next months Champions League match against Manchester United. The Glasgow club and official supporters groups made a joint plea for fans to stay away unless they are fully accredited members of the Rangers Travel Club and are allocated seats for the game.A Champions League group game between the two clubs at Old Trafford in 2003 passed without incident but in 2008 over 150,000 Rangers fans travelled to Manchester for the Uefa Cup final and the occasion was marred by a minority of supporters who clashed with police.To prevent any repeat of the scenes which brought shame on the club, Bain said only fans with tickets should head to Old Trafford for the 14 September fixture.He said: "Our supporters groups are fully behind the club on this issue. Being drawn against a team of Manchester Uniteds standing is exactly what the Champions League is all about and we are looking forward to both matches. As a club we will be making very thorough preparation for our fans travelling to the match."It is an entirely different situation to the Uefa Cup final two years ago when there were more than 150,000 fans in the city, and we are confident that all appropriate measures will be put in place for the match in Manchester."We do, however, want to make it absolutely clear that any Rangers fan, apart from travel club members who will be allocated tickets, should not travel to Manchester. This applies to fans living in Scotland, the UK and abroad. This is a standard Champions League group stage match and, as normal, there will be no provision of special facilities in Manchester for those who do not have tickets."The club will be organising supervised travelling for supporters allocated tickets. We will be making every effort to get our travelling supporters to and from Manchester on arranged day trips, and independent travel will be discouraged."Rangers has already started liaising with Manchester United and Greater Manchester police, and we are looking forward to making this an enjoyable occasion for both clubs and their fans."Andy Kerr, the president of the Rangers supporters Assembly which represents all Rangers supporters groups, said: "Our fans have travelled to many cities successfully in the past - including Manchester in 2003 - and we want this to be a happy and successful occasion."We are confident it can be managed well as there will be only a few thousand fans travelling. Those without tickets should not go to Manchester and everyone would like to see the regrettable scenes of 2008 consigned to the past."RangersChampions League guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Pardew handed Newcastle managerial reins ... until 2016
Former West Ham manager signs contract until 2016 Pardew becomes the clubs sixth manager in three yearsAlan Pardew has been appointed as the new manager of Newcastle United. The former Reading, West Ham United, Charlton Athletic and Southampton manager has signed a five and a half year contract at St James Park.Pardew becomes the clubs sixth manager in three years, succeeding Chris Hughton on Tyneside. He faces a battle to win over the hearts and minds of supporters, however - fewer than 2% of those polled by the Newcastle Evening Chronicle yesterday wanted him as manager."I understand what this club means to its supporters," said Pardew. "Throughout the football world people recognise that this is a unique club in many ways, with supporters who are second to none in their loyalty, passion and devotion to the team."Chris Hughton did a great job last season, guiding the club back to the Premier League. He continued that good work this season. It is my aim to build on that now and take this club forward."Pardew, who has been out of work since being sacked by Southampton earlier this season and has not worked in the Premier League since relegation with Charlton in 2007, said he was "privileged" to be taking the reins."Im not a Geordie of course, but Im a football person with a love of the game and I can assure you I bring great drive, desire and commitment to the job," he said. "I have always managed teams that have played attacking positive football, something I know the supporters here appreciate."Newcastle are currently 12th in the Premier League, four points clear of the relegation zone. Pardews first match in charge will be the visit of Liverpool to St James on Saturday evening, for which fans are planning a peaceful protest against the Mike Ashleys management of the club and Chris Hughtons dismissal. Organisers claim to have 250 supporters signed up to their campaign.Alan PardewNewcastle UnitedJohn Ashdown guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Is there a role for politics in football? | Paul MacInnes
Is football a votewinner? Labour have announced plans to revamp the game and, they hope, gain the political support of fans in the process. Here a panel of football bloggers, gathered by the Observer, discuss whether the politicians have got it right Is football a vote-winner? That was the question raised last week when proposed Labour plans to reform the national game were revealed. Amongst the series of initiatives that may be included in the partys upcoming manifesto included fans being handed a stake in their club and, furthermore, a chance to buy their club should it ever be put up for sale.While the plans were not lauded by everyone (Michel Platini was a fan, but the Tories saw implications for company law and declared the proposals "a pre-election gimmick") they certainly tapped into a current mood amongst many supporters that all is not well in our national sport.For the latest Observer conversation we invited three supporters to assess the plans and offer their take on what needs to change. Kevin Rye of supporters Direct, Ed Barker of United Rant, and CaughtOffside contributor and Chelsea fan Phil Lythell join me to discuss whether or not football can be an electoral issue, and how fans can turn this new political interest to their advantage.Premier LeaguePaul MacInnes guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Red Knights to press ahead with offer for Manchester United
Consortium not deterred by Glazers reluctance to sell United owners anticipate a bid in next six weeksThe Red Knights consortium hoping to take control of Manchester United is to press ahead with its takeover plans despite the Glazer familys insistence they are so determined not to relinquish control at Old Trafford that they have turned down a 1.5bn offer from a Middle East investment group.The Glazers are anticipating a bid in the next six weeks from the Red Knights and have given strong indications that they will reject it out of hand, with high-ranking sources at Old Trafford saying the Americans have received several approaches during their five years in charge. Jim ONeill, a former United director and now the chief economist at Goldman Sachs, is fronting the Red Knights and their information is that a firm bid was made to the Glazers but that it was for 1bn. They believe the 1.5bn figure dramatically overprices the club and that the leak could be a deliberate negotiating tactic on the part of the Glazers to hike up the price. This is strenuously denied inside Old Trafford, the official stance being that the club is not for sale.The Guardian revealed today that the Glazers were largely unmoved by the supporters protests, which will continue during Uniteds home game against Stoke City on Sunday, and that the owners had sent a message to the Red Knights, via the Rothschild investment bank, to inform them they were not interested in negotiating a deal. "The smugness of boasting about owning the best house on the hill is breathtaking and will disgust many supporters who have endured eye-watering ticket price rises since the Glazers took over," Duncan Drasdo, the Manchester United supporters Trust spokesman, said."This spin that the Glazers intend to try to cling on to ownership will make supporters more angry and, far from reducing the opposition, this is going to increase the protests if they are serious about still being here at the start of next season. This is not going away and supporters have a key role in sending that message to them."Manchester UnitedBusinessThe Glazer familyPremier LeagueDaniel Taylor guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Italy v Serbia called off after trouble
Serbia fans threw flares onto pitch and at home support Stojkovic withdrew from game after being attacked by fansItalys Euro 2012 qualifier against Serbia in Genoa has been suspended after just seven minutes and looks set to be cancelled after the away support threw flares on to the pitch and into the home supporters section.Serbian supporters had fought with police outside the stadium and reportedly even attacked their own teams bus, causing the goalkeeper Vladimir Stojkovic to withdraw from the game before kick-off.Inside the stadium, kick-off had to be delayed by 45 minutes after a group of Serbian fans began throwing objects onto the pitch and attempting to break down barriers between them and the pitch. They also unfurled a banner reading "Kosovo is Serbia".Despite this, and while police attempted to move into the away section to subdue the troublemakers, kick-off eventually went ahead. Within minutes, however, flares had been thrown onto the pitch and into the home supporters enclosure.The game was then halted, and after a prolonged discussion, the Uefa delegate ruled that it should be suspended. Although there has not yet been official confirmation of the game being cancelled altogether, that now seems inevitable after some players were seen fully dressed leaving the dressing room.Euro 2012ItalySerbiaPaolo Bandini guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

Blackburn supporters selling season tickets to Manchester United fans
United could secure 19th league title on Saturday Any offenders will face strong and appropriate actionBlackburn Rovers have warned their supporters against selling season tickets to Manchester United fans for Saturdays meeting between the two sides. United will secure their 19th league title if they avoid defeat at Ewood Park, while Rovers are looking for a positive result as they continue their battle to avoid relegation.The sale of tickets to United fans could mean some supporters are not segregated, causing a security concern.A statement on Blackburns website said: "Reports that some Blackburn Rovers supporters are selling their season tickets to Manchester United fans ahead of Saturdays Premier League fixture at Ewood Park have brought a furious response from the club."Club officials - fully supported by Lancashire police - warn that everything possible is being done to minimise the illegal practice and stress that any offenders will face strong and appropriate action. Rovers have information and intelligence of season ticket holders selling their tickets directly to United followers - there is even evidence of season tickets being advertised on the internet."The Blackburn managing director, Tom Finn, said: "This is a very disturbing situation, not to mention a criminal offence, and a situation we could well do without leading up to what is a massive fixture. We are currently monitoring things very closely and, where necessary, will cancel the season tickets, so denying entry to the stadium on the day."It also goes without saying that we need as many Rovers fans inside Ewood Park on Saturday as we can. Fervent home support has worked wonders for us in recent years and we need it again now."Blackburn RoversManchester United guardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More [detalii...]

David Sullivan blames Eastlands no-show on West Hams away woes
Sullivan, David Gold and Karren Brady missed 2-1 loss Watching our poor away performances has impacted on usThe West Ham co-owner, David Sullivan, has blamed his sides "poor away performances" for his decision not to attend Sundays defeat at Manchester City.Neither Sullivan, David Gold, nor the vice chairman, Karren Brady, travelled to Eastlands for the 2-1 loss, choosing instead to watch their relegation-threatened team play on television."Watching our poor away performances week after week and not having the ability to influence things has impacted on us," Sullivan admitted. "My family think Im mad devoting so much time and money to the club and, as the match was on TV, I decided to watch it on TV."We couldnt influence the result, we donated the cost of the private plane to a charity for terminally ill children, we thought that would do more good. Had it not been on TV we would have been there."None of us draw any salary or expenses from West Ham United. We are not 20,000 to 60,000-a-week footballers. We only took 1,100 supporters. Like us, the bulk of the West Ham United supporters preferred to watch it on TV.
