Subject: MANCHESTER UNITED v SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY PREVIEW
Alex Ferguson claims his players are not weighed down by the
pressure of winning the Treble following their relatively slow start to
the season. United lost the Charity Shield to Arsenal before they
drew 1-1 at Everton in their opening Premiership match last Sunday,
following a late own goal by Jaap Stam.
Not the best of starts by the champions, especially when compared
to Chelsea's rampant display against Sunderland at Stamford Bridge.
United face Wednesday on, ernm, Wednesday in their first home
game of the new campaign and Sir Fergie has dismissed the notion
that they are burdened by last season's success.
''I don't see where the pressure comes from,'' insisted the United
boss. ''People will try to analyse us to see if there is any change
from last year but I couldn't see any at Everton on Sunday. What
we are talking about is the United players reaching their capabilities,
it's a game of football which they are capable of winning. They have
got the ability, their team work is great, their team spirit is terrific
and all the things are in place.''
In today's over-hyped Premiership, Ferguson felt it was more a case
of people getting carried away than his side feeling the heat. ''I
think there's a lot of hype in the media,'' he said. ''The thing to
remember is that there are still 37 games to go and when you
consider that then I think people are getting carried away a bit.''
The champions' main injury concern is the fitness of Mark Bosnich.
The Aussie goalkeeper was having treatment on Tuesday on a groin
strain he suffered in Sunday's draw at Goodison Park. Stand-in
Raimond van der Gouw is waiting in the wings, but the United boss
reckons Bosnich should recover in time.

Subject: Wes Talks About Injury
(ManUtd.Com) BACK ON THE AIR
Tuesday, August 10, 1999 16:45
Manchester United Radio make a welcome return to the air this Wednesday
after their summer break. As usual, the official United station have come up
with some great exclusive interviews.
This week, they caught up with Wes Brown, who was recently ruled out for the
season with a cruciate ligament injury.
As the radio station's Matt Proctor discovered, that diagnosis was somewhat
premature, and young Wes is now hopeful of making a swift recovery from the
knock.
But first, he explained to Matt exactly what happened on that fateful day in
training.
"We were doing a two-on-two session with Steve McClaren," said Wes.
"I went to block a shot from Coley, and instead of shooting he cut inside.
As I went to turn, I fell on the ground and twisted my knee. I felt
something go in my knee straight away. I didn't know what it was, but I knew
I'd done something to it. I've never felt that pain before.
"I asked the physio, Rob, to come down, and I got up, thinking I could jog
on it. I thought I'd just niggled it. I went home as normal. But when I woke
up the next morning, it was so stiff I couldn't move it at all.
"Rob sent me for an X-ray, and when I got the results, he told me I'd done
my cruciate. It was heartbreaking. I was told that if I needed an operation,
I would be out for 12 months. I had a think, and I just thought I'd get on
with it, and work really hard to get back," he said.
Roy Keane and Terry Cooke both suffered similar injuries while at the club
and both made an excellent recovery. Cooke is now with Manchester City of
course, but Wes says that Roy's words of encouragement have helped him no
end.
"I had a word with Roy, and he was brilliant. He gave me a few pointers, and
I'll just have to get on with it and get my career back together," claimed
Wes.
It's not all bad news, though. Wes claims that he will not be out for as
long as was first feared. "It is serious, it is my cruciate, but I've been
told that there is still a muscle which can hold your knee up. Maybe, if in
a few months it still feels OK, I won't need the operation, and I can get
back playing.
"I'm still working hard in the gym, especially no my knee to build the
muscle up. It can be boring, but it has to be done, and hopefully I'll be OK
in a few months," smiled Wes.
Here's hoping!
Manchester United Radio will be broadcasting on 1413AM within a 10-mile
radius of Old Trafford. Coverage, including full match commentary, runs from
4.30pm to 11pm on Wednesday.
The station will then return bright and early at the weekend for the home
match against Leeds, which has a 12 noon kick off. Matt Proctor and his team
will be on air from 8.30am to 3pm on Saturday.

Subject: Fergie: I was close to quitting
By Graham Hunter
Wednesday, August 11, 1999
Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed that a power struggle with his Old Trafford
bosses brought him to the brink of resignation less than 12 months before
leading his team to the Treble last May.
The manager was so enraged by what he considered disloyalty and unfounded
sniping by club chairman Martin Edwards and Manchester United plc chairman
Sir Roland Smith that he flew to a confidential meeting with them and
demanded: 'Do you want to call it a day?'
The man who lifted the Premiership title, FA Cup and European Cup and was
knighted within a year of the stormy meeting was so appalled by the
accusation that he was not putting everything into his work that he offered
to resign once more.
Ferguson told them: 'If you don't recognise that I am the best person to
judge which players should be bought by the club, I may as well go now.'
New player contracts and assistant manager Brian Kidd's apparent preference
for John Hartson over Dwight Yorke were already troubling Ferguson.
But Edwards' alleged accusation that 'success at Old Trafford had made me a
celebrity and that I was not focusing on the job as much as I had done'
really hurt.
Yesterday Ferguson emphasised: 'Last summer was a lonely and vulnerable time
for me at the club - only a manager can know how that feels.'
The moment which might have robbed United of the greatest achievement in
their history came when Ferguson was so disturbed about what was happening
in his absence that he broke into his summer holidays in France during early
July 1998.
According to the revelations, contained in Ferguson's autobiography,
Managing My Life, the Scot had flown from his Mediterranean family holiday
to meet Edwards and Smith at the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank in London.
Three matters were already troubling him: the feeling that United's board
cared more about keeping Kidd than about reassuring him over his own future,
Kidd's apparent discussions with the board, which had gone unchecked with
Ferguson, and the distinct impression that Arsenal's Double in 1997-98 had
left some believing his own abilities might be on the slide.
The meeting had been abruptly called after Edwards told Ferguson during a
phone call about the attempted purchase of Yorke that: 'We are not sure he
is the right man'.
Ferguson responded: 'What do you mean we don't think he is the right
man - who are we?'
When Edwards told him that he was referring to: 'one or two of the directors
and Brian Kidd', Ferguson responded 'Who's the bloody manager?'
Ferguson writes: 'I could hardly believe what I was hearing but I let Martin
and Sir Roland make their points before asking: 'Do you want to call it a
day?';
He says his hard-line attitude settled the 'farce' but was subsequently
caused to reflect that Kidd 'found much less difficulty than I did in
gaining improved terms of employment.
'In the previous January, Sir Roland had promised the club would look after
me at the end of the 1997-98 season but we had been top of the Premiership
then and flying.
'Arsenal stormed past us on the run-in and gone on to take the Double...now
I was being told the redrawing of my contract was still under
consideration.'
What may concern United supporters still more is the context the revelations
put on the club's inability to conclude terms with captain Roy Keane, who
Ferguson clearly does not wish to lose, or to sign players of the calibre of
Rivaldo, who Ferguson covets.
Keane is expected to make an announcement on his future at the end of this
week and Ferguson said: 'He has been a great servant and I hope he will
continue to be a great servant for the next few years. The one thing you
must say about him is that he will be honest about a job.'
Alex could teach Maggie a thing or two
By Brian Woolridge
Wednesday, August 11, 1999
It was most gratifying, being an atheist when it comes to football as a
religion, to be invited to Sir Alex Ferguson's drinks party at the London
Hilton tomorrow evening.
My RSVP is as follows: Thank you, but despite no prior engagement, I shall
not be present.
The occasion, of course, is further to publicise Sir Alex's autobiography
Managing My Life and I can do that without a few free canapes and
gin-and-tonics.
The fact is I found it a most disturbing book, about both the football
industry and Ferguson himself.
This, subliminally, may have something to do with his close affinity with
New Labour, but actually I think not. For when it comes to cutting down his
out-of-favour colleagues, Sir Alex wields a sawn- off shotgun faster than
Margaret Thatcher ever swung her handbag.
There is no questioning that, culminating with Manchester United's Treble
last season, he proved himself the most successful British football manager
of all time.
Nor would one be naive enough to think that such unique status could ever be
attained without ruthlessness.
But ruthlessness is one thing. How deeply that ruthlessness can penetrate
the soul is revealed by his excoriation of former players and staff, several
of whom are still prominent in the game, and it strikes me as being a rather
ill-mannered way to behave.
There may be explanations. Managing My Life commanded the biggest advance of
any sports book in the history of British publishing. Hodder and Stoughton
gambled £1 million and since a percentage of that must be recovered from
pre-sales newspaper serialisation, they wanted material that would make
eye-catching headlines.
Sir Alex certainly gave them that. His revelation that he'd received a
£40,000 'bung' from a Russian and shoved it into the Old Trafford safe
before handing it back a year later raised as many questions as eyebrows.
Did he need the money? I don't refer to the 'bung' but to income from the
book. You never know, but given his lifestyle and the ownership of a few
racehorses I would rather doubt it.
Obviously, publish-and-bedamned is not the prerogative of Fleet Street. Any
public figure can do it within the libel laws any time he pleases.
Some young footballers, urged on by avaricious agents, rush into print with
the most juvenile drivel after six games in the Premier League. Better by
far to watch how the heavy guns - the Thatchers, Heaths and Majors - handle
it. They wait until retirement before settling old scores.
Prime Ministers have far longer careers in public life than football
managers. So Sir Alex's timing, since he's announced he's going to quit in a
couple of years anyway, is particularly curious.
Couldn't he resist the up-front cash? Or couldn't he wait to humiliate
people who have threatened or challenged his omnipotence?
These are not subjects you'd raise at a rooftop cocktail party at the Hilton
when someone else is footing the bill. However, here's an invitation to Sir
Alex, his literary collaborator, Hugh McIlvanney, and publisher, Roddy
Bloomfield, to join me for lunch or dinner anywhere at any time.
I'd feel more comfortable to discuss it all in those circumstances.

Subject: BECKHAM WARNED: AVOID ANIMAL'S BITE - Mirror
MANCHESTER United's Treble-winning superstars have been warned to steer
clear of the "Animal" at Old Trafford tonight.
Sheffield Wednesday's notorious new striker Gilles de Bilde may have the
looks of a choirboy, but he has the fists of a boxer and a hair-trigger
temper which could blow at any moment.
And David Beckham and Roy Keane have been urged to give a wide berth to the
Belgian hit-man if they want to avoid of a repeat of the explosion three
years ago which came within millimetres of ruining former Aalst defender
Krist Porte's life.
Jaap Stam's former PSV Eindhoven team-mate was virtually booted out of
Belgian football for a sickening punch that left Porte fighting for the
sight of one eye and earned de Bilde the tag of the "most hated man in
European football."
Tonight Wednesday's pounds 3million summer signing from Holland will have
his suspect temperament put to the ultimate test in the intimidating
atmosphere of the Theatre of Dreams.
And Porte genuinely fears any flash-point with the equally volatile Keane or
Beckham could have disastrous consequences for Sir Alex Ferguson's side.
"I can never forget what he did to me. He could have ruined my life with his
fist," said Porte.
"I know he could have done it to anyone. I was just in the wrong place at
the wrong time when his temper flipped. I don't think people like that can
change.
"We were jostling on the edge of the penalty area before a penalty and he
just turned round and punched me. The pain was incredible and I still get
headaches and pain from it now." Porte - who now plays for Westerloo in the
Belgian First Division - was out of the game for a season and he is still
battling to win compensation for the damage done by de Bilde.
He is in the process of dragging de Bilde back through the Belgian courts
for a second time in an effort to force Anderlecht's insurers to pay him for
his loss of earnings.
"He put me out of the game for eight months and there was a real fear I
would not play again," said Porte.
De Bilde was banned for 15 matches and forced to leave Belgian football to
continue his career in Holland after winning a case against the Belgian FA
who wanted FIFA to extend their ban worldwide.
Wednesday boss Danny Wilson's team was branded the "friendliest in football"
last season after a pathetic display at Old Trafford and he wants de Bilde
to provide his team with some fighting spirit.

it a go. Can anyone here help to bring the premiership to an American
television station that isn't pay-per-view. The league has become wildly
popular stateside but it is still virtually impossible to catch a game. The
games that are offered often cost about twenty dollars. Is there some kind
of simultaneous webcast that I can catch instead? I would be pleased if it
were audio only, as long as the play calling could be live.

Subject: REFS OFFERED PANIC BUTTONS
Premiership referees are to be offered panic buttons at home to combat
hooligans who make sinister threats and abusive calls. In a new twist to
soccer's victim support culture, Premier League chiefs will pick up the
£1,000 tab for the type of device used in the home of FIFA referee David
Elleray. Harrow schoolmaster Elleray has had a panic alarm, which connects
him directly with his local police station, fitted at his London home after
a terrifying hate campaign waged by Manchester United thugs. And the case
has shocked soccer bosses so much that they are ready to extend the security
measure to every Premiership referee. Referees' Association chairman Peter
Willis and Premier League referees' secretary Phil Don were appalled that
£400-a-match Elleray should suffer such violent reprisals. Three months
ago, high-level talks between the FA and referees' bodies resulted in match
officials being driven to potential tinderbox fixtures in 'safe' cars by
minders. Now, personal protection for referees has been extended, for the
first time, to their home addresses. One of Elleray's colleagues on the
Premiership list said last night: "It is a terrible comment on modern
football that a referee cannot feel safe in his own home. "Football has a
duty to stand by referees, especially those required to make unpopular
decisions, and this is as serious as anything we've known. "David Elleray
is one of our most experienced officials, and for him to involve the police
in something like a panic alarm means it must be serious. "There is a
shortage of referees nationwide already, and who is going to want to be a
ref when they feel unsafe at home?" Elleray's dramatic move is believed to
be a consequence of his controversial decision to send off United defender
Denis Irwin at Anfield during last season's title run-in. Liverpool fought
back to draw 2-2 against United's 10 men, and Old Trafford chairman Martin
Edwards sarcastically claimed the Premier League should strike a medal for
Elleray if Arsenal pipped United to the championship. Over the past three
years, Premiership referees have been exposed to a terrifying catalogue of
chilling incidents which prompted a major review of their safety by the
Football Association. When Rangers controversially clinched the Scottish
title at Old Firm rivals Celtic last May, referee Hugh Dallas had the
windows smashed at his family home. Three years ago, Gerald Ashby, now an
FA observer, was advised by police to leave his Worcester home for several
days after he was bombarded by pest calls threatening to maim him.
Colleagues Mike Reed and Rob Harris have been victims of mob madness when
they were collared by lynch mobs at traffic lights as they drove home from
controversial matches. Reed was attacked in his car by Leicester fans after
awarding a penalty in an FA Cup replay at Chelsea in 1997. And Harris
needed to make a speedy getaway after sending off three West Ham players -
Ian Wright, Shaka Hislop and Steve Lomas - against Leeds at Upton Park in
May. Willis was outraged when Paolo Di Canio was given only an eight-match
ban for shoving Paul Alcock to the ground at Hillsborough last September,
claiming referees would feel "abandoned" by the leniency of the Italian
hothead's sentence. FA bosses offered Alcock stress counselling to get over
the shock of Di Canio's assault. But panic buttons have brought a
disturbing new dimension to English football.
