The relationship between Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew and the club's supporters is broken beyond repair. Support for Pardew has eroded over several years due to poor results, including a run of form that resembles a relegation battle. While some of Newcastle's struggles are not Pardew's fault due to the club's ownership and transfer dealings, the manager is ultimately responsible for on-field performance. Growing unrest among the supporters shows something needs to change at the club.
John Peel was born into an upper middle-class family in England but developed a love of rock music and a rebellious spirit. He began his career in radio in the United States in the 1960s, where he developed his signature style of playing obscure and underground music. Peel returned to England in 1967 and found success on pirate radio stations before joining the BBC. At the BBC, Peel hosted shows like Top Gear and Night Ride where he continued promoting new artists and genres, making him a iconic figure in music and counterculture in Britain.

This document is about the history and cultural significance of aprons in America as told through personal stories and memories. It discusses how:
1) Aprons trigger fond memories of homemakers from people's pasts and the traditions they upheld for their families.
2) Aprons have a long history dating back to many early cultures and were an important part of women's wardrobes throughout American history, taking on different meanings and styles over time.
3) Collecting and sharing apron stories has led the author on a journey across the country to learn about the lives of women throughout history as represented by this simple domestic symbol.
This document is the final report from the Hillsborough Stadium disaster inquiry led by Lord Justice Taylor. It provides:
1) An overview of the inquiry process including gathering evidence, site visits, and submissions received to inform recommendations.
2) A discussion of issues with older stadiums, facilities, hooliganism, and the need for all-seater stadiums to improve safety.
3) Examination of the framework and substantive provisions for crowd safety, including capacities, gangways, fencing, and emergency procedures.
4) Consideration of policies around alcohol, ticketing, policing strategies, and offenses to reduce hooliganism and crowd control issues.

Apron Chronicles is a traveling photo exhibition that has toured the US since 2004, using 46 photographs and 150 vintage aprons to tell the American experience through personal stories from diverse individuals. The exhibition explores people's lives through the symbolism of aprons, including a 111-year-old mother, a Holocaust survivor, and a biology professor from Mali. Best-selling author EllynAnne Geisel collected the vintage aprons and stories, while award-winning photographer Kristina Loggia captured the storytellers' images in a style complementing their honest recollections.
I NEVER SAW MY MOTHER DO A SIT-UP - By EllynAnne GeiselWebbieWebbster
The author tries on a favorite dress from her youth but can no longer fit into it due to weight gain in her 50s. She recalls that her mother would wear control undergarments called girdles to manage her figure. After intense dieting and exercise fails to make the dress fit, the author remembers her mother's girdle "dance" routine. She purchases modern control shapewear and, like her mother, is able to shimmy into it and smoothly fit into the dress. The author realizes she can achieve her desired silhouette through spandex rather than sit-ups, just as her mother did.

The Grand National horse race routinely causes serious injury and death to the horses that participate. In the 2007 race, Graphic Approach fell at the notoriously dangerous Becher's Brook fence and ran loose for over a mile before collapsing from his injuries and later being euthanized due to pneumonia. Defenders of the race claim the horses enjoy the challenge, but the race is deliberately punishing and hazardous, featuring large jumps and obstacles that many horses have never encountered before. The modern racing industry breeds horses for speed over skeletal strength, putting them at greater risk of fatal injuries from falls.

"Of course, you prefer to take players who are fully fit, but that's okay. We want to wait and be patient for some players even if they cannot play in those first matches," he told a press conference. The 37-year-old Vertonghen, Belgium’s Euro Cup 2024 most-capped international with 154 appearances, is struggling to shake off a groin injury.
"He will be there normally. This also applies to Youri Tielemans and Arthur Theate. The latter's position is very sensitive. We don't have many choices at left back. "It will only change if it turns out that they will only be available when, say, the final of the Euro 2024 Championship comes around. That's too long to wait.

Belgium vs Romania: Radu Dragusin Prepares for Crucial Role in Euro Cup Germany
Some of them have taken not one but two steps forward in their rehabilitation," he said. None of the injured players will feature in this week’s warm-up friendlies against Montenegro and Luxembourg. Romania centre-back Radu Dragusin found chances limited at Tottenham Hotspur in the second half of the 2023-24 season.
But is crucial to his country's cause at UEFA Euro 2024 where his aerial ability, physicality and hard graft make him a standout player. The 22-year-old moved to North London from Italian side Genoa in January but was kept on the sidelines by the form of another new arrival for the season, Mickey van de Ven, something Romania coach Edward Iordanescu admitted was a concern.
It will mean limited game-time going into the finals, but Dragusin, who cites Netherlands defender Virgil van Dijk as a role model, started every Euro Cup Germany qualifier as Romania went through the campaign unbeaten in their 10 games. He will be among their most important players in their first game in Germany against Ukraine in Munich on June 17, taking the right centre-back role in what is likely to be a back four.

However, in 2023, they played one another twice, with France endearing both matches 4-0 and 2-1 individually. Against Poland and Austria, the Netherlands also have a stout record, winning just under half the matches. They faced Austria at Euro 2020, engaging 2-0, and they haven't lost to Poland since 1979.
The lettering is on the wall for Holland to qualify for the knockouts, but nothing is failsafe. The Netherlands kickstart their Euros campaign against Poland on Sunday, June 16th. In Hamburg, they will have to go up against one of the best strikers in the world, Robert Lewandowski.

Ronald Koeman is widely considered one of the more successful Dutch managers in Premier League history, considering the nation has a reputation for struggling to replicate their talents in England. The former Everton manager went against that script and shone — and now he is back managing his nation.

Netherlands vs Austria: Ronald Koeman's Tactical Approach For UEFA Euro 2024
As well as being the highest-scoring defender in history, Koeman is a man with immense tactical knowledge. He returned to manage Holland at the start of 2023 after it was announced Louis van Gaal would retire. His life back in the dugout with the team wasn't easy, as he lost his first match 4-0 to France after going 3-0 down within 21 minutes.
However, he eventually helped them qualify for Euro Cup Germany. The 61-year-old likes to organize his team with a defensive mindset. Some might call it pragmatic as he defends with minimal space between the lines, but that's often needed for international football.

Gabriel Kalembo A Rising Star in the World of Football Coaching
George Caulkin article Sept 15th 2014
1. It is broken. Not frayed, but broken. Not hanging by a thread, but broken. Not fractured, but
broken. The relationship between Alan Pardew and the supporters of Newcastle United can no
longer be framed in terms of tension or discontent, grumbling or unease because, on the face of
it, there is no longer a relationship to frame. There is a fissure at the heart of the football club
which can neither be ignored or repaired.
There is a point in the cycle when the conversation stops being about whether a manager can
turn things around, whether he is motivating his players, whether he is good enough, bold
enough or suited to the rhythm of his workplace and it starts being about timing. Amid the
banners and slogans of fans who had travelled to Southampton on Saturday, the 40
defeat, the
calls for dismissal, the mockery and derision, the sight of a coach, John Carver, rounding on
fans, that point was crossed.
There is nothing kneejerk
about Newcastle’s predicament. It is not a response to four league
matches without victory, nor the team’s position at the foot of the Barclays Premier League. This
is not because Pardew was born in London or because his club’s followers are a restless,
seething mass of deluded sheetdaubers,
although you could be forgiven for thinking that; it is a
dull, old complaint, but fans remain the subject of witless stereotyping. This is about history. It is
also about facts.
Back in May, Newcastle won a match against Cardiff City 30,
although victory proved a relative
concept. The unrest began in the third minute, with a chant directed at Mike Ashley, the owner.
There were two organised walkouts, in the 60th and 69th minutes, accompanied by chants of
“We want Pardew out” and “Alan Pardew, it’s never your fault.” Pardew, who had recently been
banished from the touchline, was beaten back again by a surge of vitriol.
At any other stage of the season, his position would have been intolerable; episodes such as that
are rare, but they linger in the memory and trust, faith and understanding had been forsaken.
What worked in Pardew’s favour was the full stop provided by the end of the season, an
opportunity to turn a page and begin afresh. Nine players were signed in the summer. Pardew
spoke about the “new Newcastle United.”
But, the context for the Southampton result is deep. Over the course of 2014, Newcastle have
won five games in the league; stack up the numbers and it is relegation form. In nine of those 23
matches, 15 of which have been lost, they have conceded three goals or more, while their
biggest victory, 41
at Hull City, came with Pardew earning an official warning, a fine of £100,000
and a long suspension from the touchline over his boorish altercation with David Meyler.
The 53yearold
is the second longestserving
manager in the division, but only once has
Pardew led Newcastle beyond the third round of the FA Cup, while his record in the Capital One
Cup is little better. He has presided over three consecutive defeats to Sunderland, the club’s
local rivals, a dubious achievement last achieved in 1924. There are a welter of other statistics,
but there is also the evidence of the eyes.
2. Impatience does not taint that evidence. There is a great lie about Newcastle supporters Sunderland,
too and
it centres on the word “expectation”. It implies grandeur, ideas above their
station, a stubborn refusal to accept reality. There is nothing wrong with pushing for
improvement if
you finish sixth one year, why not hope for fifth the next? and
if you have a
crowd of 52,000 where is the crime in ambition, but “expectation” has become a handy excuse
for failed managers.
It is also rubbish. When Newcastle stir, it is worth listening, simply because it happens so
infrequently. If Newcastle fans express concern at their manager, then you pay attention
because loyalty clings to them like guilt. There have been spasms of anger, but there was no
revolution when Ashley’s decisions propelled the club towards relegation, when the name of the
stadium was changed, when Joe Kinnear came and went. If there is fury now, it means
something.
It means something because the reality of Newcastle is not ferment or turmoil. It is the opposite.
If they have been threatened with anything, it is by the stealth of apathy, an acceptance of their
lot, an existence made up of “priorities”, by the dash for ninth, where the Europa League is an
inconvenience. Where a sporting institution straining for glory has been replaced by a works’
team which plods on for the sake of it, recycling money.
It is no longer mitigation to say that Pardew is a decent manager; if he is, he is not showing it. It
is no longer mitigation to say that Newcastle finished fifth in 2012; they did, but so what? It is no
longer mitigation to say the devil you know is better than the one you don’t; little (more Kinnear
apart) could be less rewarding than this. And, it is no longer mitigation to say that Ashley is the
problem; he may be, but for the next two years, he is staying put.
When the Pardew era is judged, the structure of the club will be a contributing factor. Good
managers challenge; they challenge players to improve and challenge owners to invest, but
Ashley does not want to be challenged. The delineation of duties between manager and Graham
Carr, the influential chief scout, has never been precise enough, while their transfer policy can
simultaneously be worthy, uncompromising and flawed.
It is not Pardew’s fault that Kinnear was a risible appointment as director of football, that two
windows opened and shut without Newcastle making a permanent signing. It was not his doing
that Yohan Cabaye was sold in January, robbing his team of its creative fulcrum. It is not down to
him that a frontline replacement for Loïc Rémy was not found. If Rémy Cabella has not yet
settled and Siem de Jong is injured, can he be held accountable?
Yet Pardew fell out with Hatem Ben Arfa and dispatched him to Hull City onloan;
the France
international, prickly but popular, was deemed an asset, explanations were not given and the
propaganda battle lost. Because Pardew is the only public face at Newcastle, each word he
3. utters is poured over and picked apart and even if his tone is reasonable, it is the other stuff that
grasps the attention. He is tarnished by association.
In the final analysis, results have been so miserable that sympathy has leeched away; the
matters Pardew cannot control are now overshadowed by results, his core responsibility. Those
results could turn, but Cardiff and Southampton have illustrated that pressing the reset button will
not do much and if it means the manager being stricken in his dugout or his assistant breaking
off from a warmup
session to remonstrate with supporters, then something has been lost.
The decision, when it comes, will be Ashley’s and, having banned journalists who wrote last
week that Pardew had two games to save his job, the only indication is reassuring for the
manager, but the worth of that may be limited; gambling is secondnature
to the owner, but he
will not risk another relegation. That is the bottom line and Ashley cares most about the bottom
line, but the cry from the stands is now loud and constant: it is time for change.
