Reports in this morning newspaper claim that Peter Schmeichel is coming back to United in the role of a club official ambassador. He joins the likes of Sir Bobby Charlton, Bryan Robson and Gary Neville who travel the world promoting Manchester United.

"Schmeichel Back To United" was originally published at The Republik of Mancunia.

"Respect who you're playing against, if you don't, for sure you'll lose."

Says the legend who always played with no fear between the posts. Euro 1992 champion and former Manchester United star Peter Schmeichel has been appointed as Carlsberg's Global Ambassador for Euro 2012.

The beautiful game happens in India....

Chandrima

Chandrima Chatterjee is the program director for Street Soccer USA a non-profit that seeks to improve the spirits and lives of the homeless through soccer in Philadelphia, but most recently here charitable work as an ambassador for Yuwa took her to Jharkland, India where she witness how the beautiful game was impacting the lives of young women in a notoriously difficult part of the world to grow up and even exist in.

The best part about being away from your feeder club (i.e. AS Roma's Bojan) is the inevitable fact that you become its Ambassador! When Bojan scored in the 62nd minute of Roma's 5-2 victory over Novara yesterday, he lifted his shirt to reveal this message : "All the strength of this goal is for Abi" (Eric Abidal).

TweetManchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has threatened to unleash Roy Keane on Manchester City ambassador Patrick Vieira. Vieira angered Fergie after suggesting that the Premier League leaders always get refereeing decisions given in their favour this being concomitant to their current league standing.

TweetManchester City ambassador Patrick Vieira is in the firing line after suggesting that Manchester United get special treatment from referees sparking angry responses. United defender Rio Ferdinand was amongst the most vocal challengers to Vieira's comments, which, incidentally, the former Arsenal and Inter Milan midfielder believes has been taken out of context.

Patrick Vieira launched a bizarre attack on Manchester United last week, claiming we must be desperate to bring Paul Scholes out of retirement and that we wouldn't have lost our young stars, like Ravel Morrison, in the past. In just the few months since Scholes returned, he's already scored more goals than he did last season, and Morrison getting shipped off to a Championship club where he doesn't get a game after we didn't offer him a new contract is hardly "losing out" on our young players.

Who would you prefer as the new No.2 to Arsene Wenger at the Arsenal? Pat Rice is calling it a day as the manager's right-hand man and a new assistant will be recruited in the summer.

It is generally accepted that Arsenal fans would prefer a former player, someone with a bond with the Gunners, as an ideal replacement for the stalwart Rice, who has been at the club – save for a spell at Watford– for 44 years.

Earlier this week, Manchester City ambassador, Patrick Vieira, claimed that Manchester United showed "weakness" in bringing 37-year-old Paul Scholes out of retirement.

In just the few months he's been playing, Scholes has already scored more than he did all of last season and has been an important player in every game he has featured.

Chicago Fire defender Dan Gargan, boisterous about the Fire's chances always on Twitter, goes video with a build-up to Saturday's game.

As Brian McBride has retired, the ambassador gauntlet has been thrown down. Gargan is running with it.

Once, they were both on the side of good

Arsenal 7-1 Blackburn Rovers

It may sound a tad melodramatic, but I've not enjoyed watching Arsenal as much this season as I should have done. All the peripheral stuff has been as fun as ever the Saturday morning anticipation, hopping on the tube, having a pint before the game and chinwagging with the usual motley crew.

Capello is to consult with senior FA figures over Terry's fate yet while the allegations of racism in last month's match against QPR hang over Terry there can surely only be one conclusion to these meetings.

It's so ironic, it simply must be fattening!

As we creep toward Bonfire Night and stupid children start dreaming about doing stupid things with over-the-counter explosives, Man City have started a club campaign called TREACLE to promote firework safety this November and who better to front that campaign than a man who nearly lost everything (on his towel rack) at the weekend in a fireworks-related house fire?
