West Ham calm nerves with Fulham victory

London  - West Ham United eased their relegation fears with a 3-1 victory over Fulham on Sunday.

Mark Noble restored West Ham's lead from the penalty spot after Paul Konchesky had cancelled out David Di Michele's early opener.

Carlton Cole added a third to make the game safe with 14 minutes remaining.

The victory lifts West Ham to eighth, eight points off the drop zone.

Fulham, unbeaten in their previous nine, are three points behind but have two games in hand.

Cash strapped Abramovich wants to sell Chelsea

London, Jan. 18 : Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich is thinking of selling the Chelsea football club to Gulf Arabs.

According to The Times, representatives of the oligarch have travelled to Saudi Arabia and Dubai to elicit interest in the club.

At least one of the meetings was with members of the Saudi royal family. There has been no evidence so far of a potential buyer.

The Middle East has become the cash cow for British football teams.

One source said: “Abramovich’s team have been out in the Middle East sounding out what interest there is in buying the club.”

Chelsea, however, insisted last night that Abramovich was still fully committed to the club on which he has lavished hundreds of millions of pounds.

One in ten UK kids live in a mixed race family: Study

London, Jan. 18 : One in 10 children in the UK now lives in a mixed-race family, a major study has revealed, raising future hopes of a non-racist Britain.

According to The Observer, mixed-race relationships are now so common that some ethnic groups - starting with African-Caribbean - will virtually disappear.

Young people are six times more likely to be mixed-race as adults, the study says.

Lucinda Platt, author of the report and an academic at the Institute of Social and Economic Research at Essex University, describes the shift towards a mixed-race Britain as "dramatic".

Half of all men in Britain who have Caribbean heritage and are in a relationship already have partners of a different race.
