Your heart gets torn out twice in a season, one day before a game, said Glasner as he also referenced Eberechi Eze's club-record sale to Arsenal in August. It's tough to survive. That's how it feels right now. We feel that we're being abandoned. There's no support. Everybody's disappointed. We've been playing with 12 to 13 players for weeks now. On the bench I had just kids.
Co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac sanctioned a summer net spend of more than 30m as Wrexham overhauled their squad to give themselves the best possible chance of being competitive in the second tier. The options Phil Parkinson has at his disposal are continuing to improve too as players return from injury, meaning such an outlay is not needed in the winter window.
The UK decision to ban supporters of Israeli football club Maccabi Tel Aviv from a match against Aston Villa last year sparked such intense backlash that the West Midlands Police Chief Craig Guildford has stepped down.
I don't think anybody should be bothered where I sit, even if I sit on top of the roof of the stadium, it doesn't really matter, Pfannenstiel told BBC Scotland.

Among tactical implementation, developing players and dealing with the media, keeping a healthy dressing room atmosphere is one of the most important roles for a football manager. Managers can be strong tacticians but a failure to keep the dressing room under control could lead to total collapse-something Vincent Kompany's predecessors, Julian Nagelsmann and Thomas Tuchel, learnt the hard way. In contrast, the 39-year-old Belgian manager is capitalizing on his emotional intelligence to find the perfect balance at Bayern Munich.
Saad Yaslam's own goal gave Al-Nassr the lead inside 90 seconds and Jorge Jesus's team seemed poised for a comfortable win when former Bayern Munich, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain winger Kingsley Coman scored an eighth-minute bicycle kick. Home defender Mohamed Simakan's own goal in the 31st minute gave hope to the visitors, who equalised eight minutes after the restart when Carlos Junior broke clear and clipped in.
On arrival in Rabat they were surrounded by fans and locals demanding selfies and videos released on social media show them being jostled as they made their way through the station to the team bus. The FSF statement spoke of a clear lack of adequate security measures that exposed the players and technical staff to overcrowding and risks incompatible with the standards of a competition of this magnitude and the prestige of a continental final.
Around two weeks later, they contacted my father and said, We've been talking about it internally and given that Michael's very young, we think he needs a season to adapt, so we think we should make it a three-plus-one contract four years in total. My father said that was OK, but Liverpool then told him it would be for the same terms as the previously agreed three-year deal.
