Cryptocurrency and football: the future or too volatile to be trusted?

A team in Gibraltar will pay players in cryptocurrency as football delves into the innovation in the financial sector Nestled between the Rock and an airport runway, a football team are making history in Gibraltar. This time it is not the national side conceding an exorbitant number of goals (124 at the last count in four and a half years) or Lincoln Red Imps beating Celtic in the Champions League.

Instead, Premier Division Gibraltar United have crept into the spotlight by becoming the world’s first football team to introduce cryptocurrency. Through their owner, Pablo Dana, an investor in the cryptocurrency Quantocoin, the club started a sponsorship partnership.

Glasgow City’s Leanne Ross: ‘The girls now deserve to be paid’

The midfielder, who scored her 250th goal for City last month, says the game has changed ‘night and day’ since she was young There is barely a more credible witness to evolution and revolution within Scottish women’s football than Leanne Ross, the Glasgow City player who created history last month when she scored her 250th goal for the club. The 37-year-old modestly describes her journey from itinerant teenager to the forefront of the Scottish club scene [as well as an appearance at the European Championships ], as something of a fluke. Ross emerged from an era in which chances for emerging players ranged between little-known and nonexistent.

• Manchester United 1-4 Liverpool • Pereira 31; Mané 28, Sturridge 66; Ojo 74pen, Shaqiri 82 The contented one versus the disgruntled one was an accurate billing for the latest instalment of English football’s fiercest rivalry given the pre-match moods of Jürgen Klopp and José Mourinho respectively. It was certainly fitting afterwards as Manchester United were comprehensively beaten by Liverpool on the latest leg of their US pre-season tour. Xherdan Shaqiri marked his first appearance for Liverpool with a stunning overhead kick and also set up Daniel Sturridge for a cool finish, while penalties from Sadio Mané and Sheyi Ojo added to Mourinho’s problems in the International Champions Cup.

West Ham’s Felipe Anderson: ‘I’m fast and I’m going to use my intelligence’ | Paul MacInnes

The Hammers’ new record signing arrives from Lazio full of confidence. He doesn’t yet speak English, but is already aware who Bobby Moore is When Manuel Pellegrini was asked about the “West Ham way” last week, his answer was straightforward: “I always like to play offensive.” The sense remains, however, that in making Felipe Anderson his marquee signing in a busy transfer window the new Hammers manager knew he was signing a crowd pleaser. The winger arrives in east London after five years in Rome with Lazio. During that time he has had ups and downs, hot streaks and periods outside the team. But Anderson’s stats have remained consistently impressive. With real pace on the right-hand side and the technical level you would expect from a Brazilian international, he is now backing himself to deliver again in the Premier League.

Back in Europe and Burnley get to be Goliath for a change | Alastair Campbell

The lifelong fan travels to Aberdeen to celebrate the club’s return to European competition “One-nil to the Sunday league, one-nil to the Sunday league ...” There was a period on Thursday night when Aberdeen were leading us off the pitch as well on it. That particular piece of Aberdonian self-mockery was designed to highlight the “gulf” between the Premier Leagues of Scotland and England. A £3m wage bill was leading £61m thanks to a first-half penalty from Gary Mackay-Steven. Sam Cosgrove, a £20,000 signing from Carlisle, was leading the line for Aberdeen against internationals who earn that in a few days. If the “gulf” cliche had had a fair run-out in the buildup to this Europa League tie, so did that old favourite “Battle of Britain”, though football economics would say this was more David at home to Goliath with Burnley, a relative pauper alongside the six clubs above us in the Premier League, unused to the Goliath role.

Manchester United’s manager should be enjoying the sun but constant complaints do not augur well for the months ahead An illustration of the pressure José Mourinho may be feeling, and the sombre mood he has been in during Manchester United’s tour of the United States, came at their UCLA training base this week. The manager was due to sit down with a TV reporter who had travelled to Los Angeles for a pre-arranged interview on behalf of a prominent broadcaster. Yet just before it was supposed to happen, Mourinho pulled out. The journalist wandered off, only to be told the Portuguese had changed his mind again, and the interview took place.

Club forums are a haven for football fans in an ever angrier online world

Whereas YouTube and Twitter amplify rants, club forums offer kinship, humour and a place to open up to like-minded people By Jem Stone for WSC , part of the Sport Network Earlier this year a Brighton fan who uses the pseudonym Last Summer posted to the web forum North Stand Chat . It was one of the 50 or so new discussions started on there by a supporter every day and one of hundreds of posts he had contributed over the last decade. “Apologies for the Mumsnet-type thread,” he began as he calmly explained that he and his wife had split up after 14 years together and he was in need of advice from fellow fans. “Hurts like hell at the moment and the thought of now having to live my life without her is destroying me,” he wrote, before adding: “There’s loads of advice and stuff online that I could Google – but they ain’t Brighton.” And he was right. Over the next few days dozens of men – and it was all men – took the opportunity to publish at length, and in many private messages, about h...

The weird world of football's greatest conman Carlos Kaiser | Rob Smyth

In an extract from his new book Kaiser! , which accompanies the film of the same name, Rob Smyth looks at some of the tricks used by football’s greatest con artist Eri Johnson, one of Brazil’s most famous actors, will never forget the first time he met footballing royalty. “The first time I saw Kaiser,” he says, “he was crossing the street with such swagger that I thought, ‘That guy must be one of the best footballers in the world.’” As a big football fan, Johnson had no idea who Kaiser was. But the way Renato Gaúcho greeted Kaiser made Johnson think he was in the presence of someone different. “I even regret not getting up back then. I apologise to Kaiser for that. I’d already met Pelé but I thought the way Kaiser walked was more distinguished. I should have got on my knees, because those legs were incredible!” Continue reading... from Football | The Guardian https://ift.tt/2mOV2YQ
