Shame, they're a massive 'name' in the history of English football. I remember watching that FA cup final in may 1993, wanting them to best Arsenal, hoping that City would get that successful one day and now look at Wednesday. I would guess that he's earned a lot in his career and by moving lock, stock to Dubai, he avoids a lot of tax on his investments etc. So he gets paid X for playing in the third division over there, but saves a lot over the course of the year, compared to what he'd have to pay in the UK... That whole division/team is probably sold as part of a tax efficient retirement and lifestyle plan to wealthy European footballers.
Maccabi Tel Aviv fans banned (?) not allowed at their game against Villa. Not good but best not say anymore.
Perhaps if West Midlands police have concerns over their ability to police football matches in Birmingham, games should be moved to a neutral venue.
At a recent charity lunch/afternoon function Redknapp senior was billed as guest speaker...he had a better offer and was replaced by....John Barnes... apparently he was a poor speaker but was booed of the stage when he ended his session with a racist rant.
Some will say theyre banned becasue they are hooligans Others will say its to not incite riots with the heavy asian presence in birmingham One things for sure Its a safer idea to not have them
