Watch: Football fans are back!

Aug 16 2021

This weekend English football returned to normality as stadiums could be filled up once again. Fans from all around the country were seen in stadiums whether it was Brentford’s 17,250-seater stadium or Manchester United’s Old Trafford where up to 76,000 people can get in.

Many games took place but some were more special than others. This match week marked Brentford’s return to top flight football. Their last game in England’s highest division was on the 26th of May 1947, so it was nice to see Brentford play and beat Arsenal at their new ground in their first ever Premier League game. The Bee’s fans couldn’t stop singing and celebrating, one moment of coach Thomas Frank celebrating with a young fan went viral.

Manchester United fans also had a warm welcome, as a crowd of 72,000 watched the Red Devils dismantle their old rivals Leeds 5-1. United fans weren’t the only happy fan base, as Totthenham’s incredible atmosphere resulted in a narrow 1-0 victory over champions Manchester City.

After nearly two years of staying inside, it is nice to see things slowly get back to normal. Football fans in England and beyond will be thankful that they are back.

Floriana condemn racist supporter

Aug 16 2021

Last Saturday Floriana began their season, playing against Santa Lucia. The game ended in a 2-2 stalemate, but racist abuse by one particular fan towards new Santa Lucia keeper Julani Archibald was present. Floriana have officially released a statement stating their disapproval of this particular fan’s behavior.

The game started off with a shock Santa Lucia goal in the 20th minute. Floriana waited quite a while to score their season opener, until the 51st minute when goal scorer Kristian Keqi converted a penalty. Santa Lucia clearly missed their lead, as Francisco Farias scored their and his second goal of the game, only a minute after Floriana’s penalty. The game ended up in a draw when Daniel Agius equalized for the greens in the 71st minute.

What should have been a memorable outing for the Greens, having their fans back for the first time ended up in a disappointing result and abuse from fans.

Woman claims husband’s plot to have her killed

Aug 16 2021

A magistrate is currently investigating an alleged assassination case after a woman claimed discovery of evidence that her husband was plotting her assassination during separation proceedings.

Legal procurator Peter Paul Zammit filed documents which read that the woman was “frightened and worried” after finding out that her husband approached an alleged Azeri employee to help find him a hitman.

The woman also provided two conversation recordings which revealed that the man was offered a hefty sum of money to contract a hitman to kill the woman and eventually leave the country. The police are currently investigating this matter and a request for magisterial inquiry has been submitted, with the court to preserve evidence and bring back the Azeri to Malta to testify.
