KEMAMAN, (Bernama) - Kementerian Belia dan Sukan (KBS) sedia mengkaji jalinan kerjasama dengan kelab Perdana Inggeris, Queens Park Rangers (QPR) yang dimiliki Tan Sri Tony Fernandes untuk program pembangunan bola sepak negara sekiranya kelab tersebut mempunyai akademi latihan yang baik.

Menterinya Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek berkata, ini kerana terdapat sesetengah kelab Liga Perdana Inggeris (EPL) hanya mempunyai pemain terbaik yang dibeli dari luar seperti kelab Manchester United dan Chelsea.

"Saya akan mendapatkan maklumat sama ada kelab QPR mempunyai akademi latihan sendiri untuk melahirkan pemain berbakat," katanya ketika ditemui selepas majlis penyampaian bubur lambuk dan Jalur Gemilang di Centre Point, di sini, hari ini.

Ahmad Shabery berkata demikian sebagai mengulas saranan Timbalan Presiden Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM), Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah kepada Fernandes agar tidak melupakan bola sepak negara ini sekalipun akur QPR merupakan hak teraju bersama syarikat induk penerbangan AirAsia itu.

Ahmad Shabery berkata beliau sendiri sebelum ini telah berjumpa dengan Datuk Kamarudin Meranun, yang kini menjadi ahli lembaga pengarah kelab QPR untuk membincangkan bentuk kerjasama yang boleh dijalankan untuk membantu pembangunan bola sepak negara.


Fernandes, 47, Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Kumpulan Air Asia, menjadi pemilik saham utama yang baru dalam QPR selepas membeli 66 peratus saham pemilik Formula 1, Bernie Ecclestone pada kadar sekitar £35 juta (RM171 juta), Khamis lalu.

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
