Two Iranian men have been seriously injured in what police believe may have been a racially-motivated attack in Glasgow.

The men, aged 17 and 31, were attacked by three men armed with bladed weapons as they walked through Castlemilk Park at about 12:45 on Wednesday.

Both sustained serious injuries in the incident and were taken to Glasgow Victoria Infirmary.

Their condition is described as serious but stable.

Det Sgt John Stewart said: "The two friends were walking through the park to the local shops when the men, all white and wearing tracksuits, attacked them.

"It was totally unprovoked and following inquiries we believe that it may have been racially motivated.

"The two men sustained very serious injuries which may leave permanent scarring. It was a terrifying and violent assault."

He added: "Officers are currently checking CCTV in the area and an incident caravan is now in place near to the scene."

Michailovic pushed his glasses back and sighed.   “The following numbers are being released. ”The numbers came spitting out of Michailovic’s mouth, resembling in more ways than one a madman with a machine gun in a massacre.   Hardly anyone showed any reaction, making it impossible to tell whether they were shot or not.   The notable exceptions were a couple of smiles breaking out here and there as some numbers were being skipped.   As the list carried on, Callahan realized that before long it would be zooming in at an alarming rate on his proximity. Callahan had no idea who those ahead of him were, but he could see that none of them were making the cut.   He considered it good, after all the more gone before him, the higher his chances were.   He looked up at Michailovic, almost trying to read his lips before the words were spat out. “116.” Callahan looked around, trying to identify the holder of this number.   However, no one was responding. “117.” C...
I saw him after the 1998 World Cup where he had called a controversial penalty kick against Brazil for Norway. This was a friendly at Foxboro on September 12, 1998 between the US and Mexico's women's team that the US won 9-0 although he wasn't the ref but rather was there for some kind of award. I shouted out to him as he walked by "اسی چاکریم!" but he either didn't hear me or chose not to respond. https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2019/...-builder-award Esfandiar "Esse" Baharmast, a former referee, player, coach and current instructor who has been involved in more than a dozen World Cup tournaments and Olympic Games, has been named the 2020 winner of U.S. Soccer's prestigious Werner Fricker Builder Award.
