Football Quiz
Ferencvárosi TC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
"In February 2008 Kevin McCabe, chairman of English football club Sheffield United, finalised an agreement with the club to buy its football team and with the Hungarian government to purchase and develop the ground around Stadion Albert Flórián. In April 2008, Ferencváros Torna Club officially agreed to sell the football club, Ferencváros Labdarúgó ZRt. to Esplanade Kft, McCabe's company in Hungary.
The development of a new all-seater football stadium with a capacity of 25,000 has been started. 'The Blades' already own a Chinese club - the Chengdu Blades and have an interest in clubs in Belgium, The Ivory Coast, and Australia, and an exchange of ideas relationship with São Paulo. [2]"

Who was St George, and why is celebrating him so contentious?
How did he become England's patron saint?
George's fame had certainly reached England by the reign of Alfred the Great, but it really took off after the Crusades, when it was reported back that he had appeared before the crusaders outside Jerusalem in 1099, spurring them on to martial valour. He was much admired by European knights, and began to appear on banners taken into battle. In 1222, the Synod of Oxford declared that St George's Day was a feast day in England. Not being English actually gave him an edge over other saints, such as Thomas à Becket, because it meant his cult was not associated with any particular part of the country, so when English knights set off to France to fight the Hundred Years War, they could do so in the name of St George without stirring up regional rivalries. As Shakespeare put it, in Henry V: 'God for England, Harry and St George.
