Reports have emerged that the Glazer family, owners of English side Manchester United, are considering a hijack of Cristiano Ronaldo’s transfer ahead of his predicted move to Manchester City.

Acclaimed journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed that negotiations between Manchester City and Cristiano Ronaldo are still verbal while the Portuguese football icon’s agent Jorge Mendes has been in direct contact with Manchester United, with the Reds being “seriously interested” in the deal.

Juventus are currently holding out for a €30 million fee for the 36-year-old, with coach Massimiliano Allegri revealing that Ronaldo had told him that he no longer has intentions of playing with the Bianconeri and will thus not be called up for Juventus’ game versus Empoli.

‘Another version of ONE TV’; Nationalist Party calls out ‘Labour Party’s rule on PBS’

Aug 27 2021

The National Party has called out the Labour Party for its alleged ‘rule on PBS’ after the Public Broadcasting Services’ recruitment of three new journalists and two camera persons without a transparent selection process.

The PN has stated that it is ‘more evident than ever’ that the Public Broadcasting Authority has become an extension of the Labour Party and another version of ONE TV after employing five individuals, some of which without any journalistic experience. While shining a light on the fact that others have their own experience, the Nationalist Party expressed its concern with the fact that ‘many other individuals have the same or better skills and experience including over 100 graduates from the University of Malta and MCAST.

L-imħallfin din il-ġimgħa sabu lill-PBS ħati ta’ nuqqas ta’ imparzjalità li saħħet l-impunità li wasslet għal qtil…

Posted by Bernard Grech on Sunday, 1 August 2021

On August 1, PN leader Bernard Grech took to Facebook to share an excerpt of his argument on L-Erbgħa Fost il-Ġimgħa highlighting that PBS was found guilty of lack of impartiality and the strengthening of Malta’s impunity which led to the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia.

Claiming an abuse of power and an insult to the public’s intelligence, the PN stated that the Labour Party is securing its grasp on the PBS newsroom and that the only common goal is to follow the Labour Party’s agenda.

New Zealand to stop calling team ‘ALL WHITES’ because of racism concerns

Aug 27 2021

The New Zealand FA are reportedly thinking of changing their iconic nickname ‘All Whites’. This has caused mass outrage from New Zealanders and sports fans on social media.

The main argument for fans opposing to this change is that the nickname isn’t enticing any racist remarks and that the country’s national Rugby team’s nickname will still remain ‘All Blacks’. Record goal scorer Vaughan Coveny was also baffled when he heard the news. He like many other fans asked the country to also change the rugby team’s nickname if the Football team’s nickname will change. In an interview he told The Age “Will they also then change the All Blacks? What’s the need to change it? It’s been like that for many years. It’s about the history, the sport and how far it goes back.” He also stated that ‘The All Whites have always been the New Zealand soccer team, ever since I was a kid. From the day you’re born you’re brought up with it, you go through your years playing soccer and looking up to that.”

The ‘All Whites’ nicknames was first used by a commentator in a World Cup qualifying match vs Taiwan in 1981. The commentator used the nickname as the team were wearing all white kits and it was also a spin on the rugby team’s ‘All Blacks’. As of now the federation have said nothing over the nickname matter, but are looking to make football more inclusive.
