7 d. ago Former Palace owner Textor suffers setback in legal case over claim he owes £72m

Court rules in favour of Iconic on preliminary issueClaim by investor in multi-club group Eagle FootballThe former Crystal Palace owner John Textor has suffered another setback with the UK commercial court ruling he has a case to answer in a $97m (£72m) claim from an investor in his multi-club group, Eagle Football.The dispute stems from Iconic Sport’s $75m purchase three years ago of a 15.7% stake in Eagle, which holds majority stakes in Lyon, Botafogo of Brazil and the rebranded Belgian club RWD Brussels (formerly RWD Molenbeek). Eagle was also the biggest shareholder at Palace until July, when Textor sold his 43% stake to former US ambassador Woody Johnson. Continue reading...

1 week ago Football Daily | Danish villain sent packing in Swedish football’s attempt at Nordic noir

Sign up now! Sign up now! Sign up now? Sign up now!Something is rotten in the state of Sweden, though it’s a Dane taking the blame. Jon Dahl Tomasson, one-time Newcastle flop turned elite Feyenoord and Milan forward and former Blackburn manager, has just been sent packing after presiding over historic failure as manager of his neighbouring country. “Resign JDT” read one banner in Stockholm’s national stadium after Sweden lost 2-0 to Switzerland on Friday, while another read “danskjävel”, roughly translated as JDT’s nationality within a portmanteau questioning his parentage. Yes, that’s Sweden, the country that boasts Alexander Isak, the Premier League’s most expensive striker, and Viktor Gyökeres, last year’s European Golden Boot winner who hardly came cheap to Arsenal. The midfield trio of Daniel Svensson, of Borussia Dortmund, Lucas Bergvall of Tottenham and Brighton’s Yasin Asari reeks of talent and promise. Monday night, again at home, and the calls for Tomasson’s head continued...

⚽ All the latest going into weekend’s internationals⚽ Sign up for Football Daily | Mail MichaelPerhaps we should start with Scotland. Ewan Murray was our reporter at Hampden and was brutally honest about how fortunate the home side were to take a crucial victory over Greece.If Scotland make it to the promised land of next summer’s World Cup, they will glance back at this as a crucial evening. There must also be laughter to accompany reflection.No sane observer could claim Steve Clarke’s team deserved to prevail here. Lewis Ferguson and Lyndon Dykes sealed the win. Dick Turpin sprang to mind. Someone, somewhere appears to be smiling on Scotland’s bid to play in a World Cup for the first time since 1998. The Scots, who had just 31% possession, are now in an excellent position in Group C. A playoff spot could be secured on Sunday evening, when Belarus visit Glasgow. Greece, who next travel to Denmark, need snookers. Continue reading...

Of course, in discovering the principle of buoyancy, the law of universal gravitation or how best to transform a sports car with gull-wing doors into a time machine, the aforementioned scientists all chanced upon inspired moments of enlightenment that had never previously occurred to anybody else. When the lightbulb lit up over Steven Gerrard’s head while in conversation with Rio, he had clearly just figured out something rival fans have known for the best part of 30 years.

2 w. ago NFL roundup: Broncos’ late surge beats Eagles as Ravens slump to record home loss

Denver inflict first loss of season on Super Bowl champsRavens suffer badly in absence of key playersBo Nix threw an 11-yard touchdown pass and JK Dobbins rushed for a two-yard score in the fourth quarter as the Denver Broncos wiped out a 14-point deficit to hand the Philadelphia Eagles their first loss of the season. The Broncos batted down Jalen Hurts’ last-gasp pass on the final play of the game to send the Super Bowl champions to just their second loss in their last 22 games. The Broncos (3-2) caught a huge break in their rally when the Eagles had a late fourth-down conversion called back on an illegal shift penalty whistled against running back Saquon Barkley.
