HISTORY ABOUT LIVERPOOL FC
Liverpool F.C. was founded after an internal dispute within Everton F.C. The dispute was between the Everton F.C. committee and brewer John Houlding, the leaseholder of the Anfield ground and president of Everton F.C.
The Everton committee viewed Tory councillor Houlding as having a personal financial and political agenda. There was a sharp conflict on the business model of how the club was run. Relations were cold once the Everton committee saw Houldings intentions and moves.
Anfield was owned by Houlding one year after Everton moved in. Houlding bought the land from landowner Orrell. Everton initially made a donation to a local hospital in lieu of rent. After one year they were paying rent to their own president. Mr Orrell owned the adjacent land.[1] Houlding had sole lucrative selling rights on all refreshments at the ground.[2]
The largely Methodist based politically Liberal leaning Everton F.C. committee were uneasy with this, especially the potential selling of alcohol. This would take revenue away from the club. Houlding also increased the rent from £100 to £250 per year, after Everton came 2nd in the second Football League season, 1890. Everton offered a compromise of £180. An international match was hosted, England vs. Ireland indicating the quality of Anfield at the time. The rent was not a major issue as the club's profits were substantial. However, from paying a small contribution to a local hospital, Everton five years later was paying £250, a substantial sum in those days.

MANCHESTER UNITED
Manchester United Football Club is an English professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester. The club currently plays in the Premier League, of which it was a founding member in 1992, and has competed in the UEFA Champions League every year since the 1996–97 season. Founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, the club changed its name after coming close to bankruptcy in 1902, ten years after joining The Football League and six years before its first league title. In 1910, the club moved to its current home, Old Trafford, the second-largest football ground in the United Kingdom.
In 1968, under the management of Matt Busby, Manchester United was the first English football club to win the European Cup, just 10 years after the Munich air disaster that claimed the lives of eight of its players. Alex Ferguson is the most successful manager in the club's history, having won 26 major honours since he took over in November 1986.[3] The club is unique in having won the Premier League, the FA Cup and the UEFA Champions League in a single season, a feat known as The Treble, doing so in 1998–99.
Having won a joint-record 18 league titles, four League Cups and a record 11 FA Cups,[4] Manchester United is the joint most successful club in the history of English football and one of the wealthiest and most widely supported football teams in the world.[5] After being floated on the London Stock Exchange in 1991, the club was purchased by the Glazer family in May 2005 in a deal valuing the club at almost £800 million.[6]
With anywhere between 75 and 333 million supporters worldwide,[7][8] Manchester United is a global brand valued by Forbes magazine at $285 million.[9] The club is currently third, behind Real Madrid and Barcelona, in the Deloitte Football Money League, but were it not for the depreciation of the pound sterling against the euro, Manchester United would have the highest revenue of any football club worldwide.[10] The club is said to be worth £1.19 billion, making it the most valuable football club in the world.[11]
CRICKET
...Although the game play and rules are very different, the basic concept of cricket is similar to that of baseball.
Teams bat in successive innings and attempt to score runs, while the opposing team fields and attempts to bring an end to the batting team's innings. After each team has batted an equal number of innings (either one or two, depending on conditions chosen before the game), the team with the most runs wins.
EQUIPMENT:......
Cricket Ball:
Hard, cork and string ball, covered with leather. A bit like a baseball (in size and hardness), but the leather covering is thicker and joined in two hemispheres, not in a tennis ball pattern. and the ball weighs between 156 and 163 grams (5.5 to 5.75 ounces).
Cricket Bat:
Blade made of willow, flat on one side, humped on the other for strength, attached to a sturdy cane handle. The blade has a maximum width of 108 millimetres (4.25 inches) and the whole bat has a maximum length of 965 millimetres (38 inches).
Wickets:
There are two wickets - wooden structures made up of a set of three stumps topped by a pair of bails. These are described below.
Stumps:
Three wooden posts, 25 millimetres (1 inch) in diameter and 813 millimetres (32 inches) high. Bails:
Two wooden crosspieces which sit in grooves atop the adjacent pairs of stumps
THE PLAY
The order in which the teams bat is determined by a coin toss. The captain of the side winning the toss may elect to bat or field first.
All eleven players of the fielding team go out to field, two players of the batting team go out to bat. The remainder of the batting team wait off the field for their turn to bat. Each batsman wears protective gear and carries a cricket bat.
The game progresses by the bowling of balls. The sequence of events which constitutes a ball follows:
The fielding team disperses around the field, to positions designed to stop runs being scored or to get batsmen out. One fielder is the bowler. He takes the ball and stands some distance behind one of the wickets (i.e. away from the pitch). Another fielder is the wicket-keeper, who wears a pair of webbed gloves designed for catching the ball and protective pads covering the shins. He squats behind the opposite wicket. The rest of the fielders have no special equipment - gloves to assist catching the ball are not allowed to anyone but the wicket-keeper.
One batsman stands behind each popping crease, near a wicket. The batsman farthest from the bowler is the striker, the other is the non-striker. The striker stands before his wicket, on or near the popping crease, in the batting stance.
The batsman stands with his bat held down in front of the wicket, ready to hit the ball, which will be bowled from the other end of the pitch. The batsman usually rests the lower end of the bat on the pitch and then taps the bat on the pitch a few times as ``warm-up'' backswings.
The non-striker simply stands behind the other popping crease, waiting to run if necessary. The bowler takes a run-up from behind the non-striker's wicket. He passes to one side of the wicket, and when he reaches the non-striker's popping crease he bowls the ball towards the striker, usually bouncing the ball once on the pitch before it reaches the striker. (The bowling action will be described in detail later.)
The striker may then attempt to hit the ball with his bat. If he misses it, the wicket-keeper will catch it and the ball is completed. If he hits it, the two batsmen may score runs (described later). When the runs are completed, the ball is also considered completed. The ball is considered to be in play from the moment the bowler begins his run-up. It remains in play until any of several conditions occur (two common ones were just described), after which it is called dead. The ball is also dead if it lodges in the striker's clothing or equipment. Once the ball is dead, it is returned to the bowler for the next delivery (another name for the bowling of a ball). Between deliveries, the batsmen may leave their creases and confer with each other.
When all 10 batsmen are out, no new batsmen remain to come in, and the innings is completed with one batsman remaining not out. The roles of the teams then swap, and the team which fielded first gets to bat through an innings. When both teams have completed the agreed number of innings, the team which has scored the most runs wins.
cheers~

SPORTS !!!
Due to shorter working hours and a higher incidence of unemployment people of all ages find that they have a good deal of free time on their hands. It is in their own interest and in the interest of the public at large that these people are made aware of how to utilize this time engaging in activities which are a source of health, fitness, well-being and enjoyment.
Sport is particularly beneficial in promoting a positive self image. The individual who lacks confidence and who has a poor opinion or image of himself finds it difficult to interact in todays world where the high achiever reigns. The fit person generally looks and feels better as a result of his fitness.This is not just a state of mind as medical research has shown that as a result of the tightening up of flabby muscles, the loss of excess fat, the improvement in heart,lung and circulation efficiency due to exercise the individual feels,looks,and acts more positively. This makes him more confident in his dealings with other people in a variety of situations.
