West Ham and Newcastle fans fight in Dusseldorf with 21 arrested by police

German police have arrested 21 West Ham and Newcastle United supporters after violent clashes in Dusseldorf.
Fighting broke out between the rival fans in the city’s old town on Friday afternoon and 100 police officers were deployed to the area.

The two clubs are competing in the Schalke 04 Cup this weekend in Gelsenkirchen.
A spokesman for the Polizeipräsidium Düsseldorf said: ‘There were 300 English fans in the city centre.
'The fans from both clubs met and first of all they had some beers on their own, and when they met the other club there has been some verbal arguments. After that they had a psychical fight.'
‘We put 100 policemen in the city centre so that things would calm down and it calmed down very fast but we made 21 short term arrests.’






In the current England would be very difficult anyway

Everton's Steven Naismith has bought tickets for his club's home games to donate to the unemployed in Liverpool.

The midfielder, 27, said he hoped the gift would "bring joy to many people".

"I am aware that there are many unemployed in Liverpool trying hard to find a job and who may not be able to afford a ticket," Naismith added.

"I thought this might be a small gesture to help those in that situation," said the Scotland international.

Naismith has asked for the tickets to be given to different job centres across the city each week and handed out to selected job-seekers who are trying hard to find employment.

Should be mentioned that no actual Newcastle fans were arrested and it all started due to West Ham's fans acting like complete and utter bells and stealing some kids Newcastle flag and taunting him.

All the fuss was caused by West Ham fans who just went to cause trouble. I understand that I'm not exactly in the most fair and just position though.

Ex-Germany keeper Wiese explains sad story of why he became a bodybuilder

Tim Wiese takes the blame in one of his final matches at Hoffenheim in January 2013

Earlier this summer, we reported how former Germany goalkeeper Tim Wiese had effectively stopped playing and instead morphed into a bodybuilding beefcake, despite still officially being registered with Hoffenheim.

[YOU WON'T RECOGNISE THIS FOOTBALLER]

Wiese, only 32, was part of Germany’s squad at the 2010 World Cup, and joined Hoffenheim from Werder Bremen in 2012, but he fell out of favour during the 2012-13 season.

Despite having a contract until 2016, he was released by Hoffenheim in January this year after it was revealed that he had turned into an Arnold Schwarzenegger-style ‘Mr Universe’, utterly unsuited to playing professional football.

Wiese was completely unrecognisable, and was roundly mocked by fans for his transformation. He appeared to not give a damn, joking that he would “soon be so wide the ball cannot go past”.

Six weeks later, however, he has admitted that his body change initially came about as he tried to deal with the pressure of abuse from supporters – and that once he started pumping iron, he couldn’t stop.

“I had to get all the Hoffenheim problems out of my head, and so I dealt with it this way,” Wiese said.

“I tried to break down all the negatives – I don’t want to join a bodybuilding championship, I was just enjoying myself, having fun.”

Wiese now and in his prime

Wiese – who went from World Cup star to outsized muscle-man in just over three years – explained just what was causing him so much grief.

“When I came to Hoffenheim, we thought we could challenge for European places. Then everything backfired.

“And every time we lost, it seemed it was my fault; I was being analysed and criticised, not the team. It was all about me.

“Despite my experience and confidence, I had never faced this before. It culminated in a fan protest at the club’s office – a fan protest, just against me!

“There were only a few of these fans, but this made me feel deeply unwanted, and I would never wish this on another player.

“It was like being in a horror movie. The pressure was inhuman. I could not play freely.”

The saddest thing is that Wiese had rejected an offer to be Iker Casillas’ number two at Real Madrid, as he felt starting at Hoffenheim would represent a better chance of challenging for an international place.

“Hindsight is easier than foresight,” he mused. “There was no way past Casillas at the time.”

Ironically, Casillas himself lost form and confidence and ended up playing second fiddle at Real these past two seasons.

Wiese blames no-one but himself though, admitting his form dropped and that he made the wrong decision when leaving Bremen, where he had spent seven productive years.

“No, it’s my fault, no-one else’s. I’m professional enough to have clarified this with myself.

“I have to deal with the fact that I haven’t played for one and a half years.”

Will he return to the pitch? Wiese admits he does not know the answer – he would need to lose about two stones in weight to regain his agility. Certainly it would be some story though.

Maybe he could become a wrestler.

[rwo power]

Well, Werder Bremen wanted to keep him, but Tim Wiese decided not to extend his contract. At that time, he claimed he had several offers from leagues outside Germany. Sadly neither Bremen (who had to rely on below average keeper Sebastian Mielitz who cost them a lot of points) nor Wiese got happy with that decision.

[Hapless_Hans]

I always liked Wiese a lot, and I feel kind of bad becaus I have to confess I personally am responsible in some part for his demise

When Wiese joined Hoffenheim, the first competitive game he played for them was the first Pokal round against my local 4th division club BAK, in the Poststadium near where I live. Used to be Berlin's biggest stadium in the early thirties, before the Olympiastadion was built; now it's pictoresquely overgrown and half covered by trees - beautiful.

Hoffenheim had about 100 fans traveling, and they had a big banner saying "To a great season" lol.
Then they lost 4:0 against us in an epic, unforgettable, historic thrashing.
Wiese got duped for the first goal, and then right after half time he made a blunder for the 4:0, so we spent the whole second half chanting and singing his name and ridiculing him.
He was never the same after that day

Also that loss meant the beginning of the end of Markus Babbel's managerial career, thus far - he was fired a few months later and hasn't coached since
