      I’m an ex-Premier League star – now I sell swimming pools but fans keep ringing me up to sing France’s World Cup anthem

      by

      FORMER Premier League star Stephane Guivarc’h has swapped grassy pitches for water as he is now a swimming pool salesman.The Frenchman played for Newcastle and won a World Cup during his career.

      The Magpies bought the striker for £3.6million in 1998 after he won the World Cup but he ultimately failed at St James’ Park despite scoring on his debut against Liverpool.
      Guivarc’h, 53, arrived at Newcastle with an impressive goalscoring record in France but could not replicate it in England.
      He was sold just months later to Scottish giants Rangers for £3.5m, where he spent one year before returning to France to see out his career.
      Since retiring in 2002, Guivarc’h has drastically switched his career as he entered the leisure business as a swimming pool salesman at a friend’s company.
      READ MORE IN FOOTBALL
      Unlike many former footballers, the retired striker is happy not to have spent much time in front of the camera and is happy with his “balanced life”.
      He told RMC: “I have been in the swimming pool business for 17 years.  The boss of the company is a friend of mine.
      “It started off because the business was a plumbing firm that was doing work on my house.
      “My friend then told me he was planning to create a swimming pools division, and that he was looking for a sales rep.
      Most read in Football
      “As I was unemployed at the time I told him I’d give him a hand – and 17 years later on I am still working with him.
      “I am out on the road all day, things are going very well and I am back home in the evenings.
      “I lead a balanced life. I don’t need to constantly seek to be in front of a camera or a microphone in order to exist.”
      However, just because he is selling swimming pools doesn’t mean he does not get recognised by French football fans.
      Occasionally he will be spotted and will end up speaking to clients about football for even longer than the swimming pool.
      Speaking to The Times, he said: “The first time I meet a customer, if they’re a football fan, it’s not uncommon to spend half an hour talking about swimming pools and an hour talking football.
      “It’s nice, it allows you to connect with somebody’s passion rather than just talking pools, pools, pools. They like to share a moment.
      “But it’s also a professional relationship. You don’t win every deal, there’s a competitive aspect there too.”
      With the swimming pool business being based in the village of Concarneau in Brittany, France there is a very common topic that comes to mind.

      He added: “The ’98 finals had a huge impact, as they were the first time France won the World Cup.”
      Guivarc’h’s fame from the tournament even sees him be called up by fans with his phone number available on the business’ website.
      He added: “My mobile number is on the company’s website, and fans still phone me up to sing the France World Cup anthem I Will Survive.”
      Guivarc’h has previously admitted that he could have stayed in football.
      After retiring he was the sporting director at Guingamp for six months but left the club after a fallout with the president.
      He said: “My mum then died, and I looked after my dad while I had my house built.
      “My childhood friend – who is now my boss – was fitting a water tank one day when I jokingly told him I could be a salesman for his swimming pool firm.
      “That put a flea in his ear.  He phoned me later on, we spoke the next day and I’ve now been with his company since.”

      Guivarc’h left Rangers having helped the club win a Scottish double with the league and cup titles.
      He rejoined his former side Auxerre where he spent the next two years of his career.
      It was his third spell with the club having played there twice either side of a spell at Rennes before joining Newcastle.
      He played 60 games in the French league scoring 25 goals before leaving in 2001.
      In the last year of his professional career, he was at Guingamp, but he only featured 11 times, scoring one goal.
      Guivarc’h played 14 times for France scoring one goal which came in a friendly game against South Africa in 1997.
      He was selected for the World Cup squad in France’s home tournament in 1998, and played in all six games of the tournament.
      He was awarded with a Knight of the Legion of Honour – the highest order of merit in France – following the victory.

      Former France midfielder Michel Platini later claimed that the final was a fix to make sure that the team would not face Brazil until the final of the competition.
      Platini successfully got a change in the rules keeping France and Brazil separated until the final, having been named co-president of the World Cup Organising Committee in 1992.
      Platini added: “If we finished first in the group and Brazil finished first, we could not meet before the final.
      “We did not work until we were bored for six years to organise the World Cup not to do some little shenanigans.

      Up to 60 athletes get diarrhoea after Sunderland triathlon event as one rants: That’s what happens when you swim in s***

      by

      DOZENS of triathletes have fallen ill with diarrhoea and vomiting after a swimming event in Sunderland. Around 2,000 people were competing in the UK leg of the 2023 World Triathalon Championship in the city last weekend, which included a swim off Roker Beach.

      However, British Triathalon confirmed it became aware of at least 57 of them falling ill in the days after the event took place.
      It comes after Environment Agency (EA) sampling at the beach on July 26 detected 39 times the normal amount of E. coli in the water.
      E. coli is a bacterial infection that can cause severe stomach cramps, bloody diarrhoea and vomiting.
      Despite this, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) declared: “The risk to the wider public is very low.”
      READ MORE IN SPORT
      UKHSA also refused to speculate on whether filthy water was the cause and said it would be sending those with symptoms a questionnaire and asking for samples.
      The location of the swim has been the centre of a long-running dispute between government and campaigners over sewage discharges.
      Jake Birthwistle, an Australian triathlete at the event, shared the EA’s results on Instagram.
      He then fumed: “Have been feeling pretty rubbish since the race, but I guess that’s what you get when you swim in s***. The swim should have been cancelled.

      “At least I know now what got me and a bunch of other athletes who raced sick and ill. Well done and I hope you get better soon too.”
      A second wrote: “That now explains why I spent Monday night with my head in the toilet after racing Sunday morning!”
      Amid the complaints, UKHSA chief executive Professor Dame Jenny told BBC Radio 4: “I think we need to be really careful in establishing the facts, in fact that’s why the UKHSA’s North East team are looking into this.”
      The EA also said the water off the beach last year was excellent based on previous samples in the last four summers.
      British Triathalon, the governing body for UK triathalons, said their own testing passed the required standards for the events.
      A statement on their website added: “We are aware there are concerns around water quality results for a test taken on 26 July by the Environment Agency as part of their regular testing in the local area.
      “These tests were taken outside of the Roker Pier arms and not in the body of water used for the swim and published on Monday 31 July following the event.”
      Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Northumbrian Water said there had been no discharges into the water since October 2021.
      They said: “Both bathing waters were designated as ‘excellent’ in the latest Defra classifications and sampling to date in the current season indicate this high quality is being maintained.”

      But Peaty’s belief that he could defy a six-week broken foot absence and retain his Commonwealth crown was crushed as he finished FOURTH behind England’s James Wilby at the Sandwell Aquatics Centre.
      Swimming’s Superman looked on course for another triumph as he led off the blocks to turn in front.
      But he was forced to confront his own mortality as he suddenly started swimming through treacle, overtaken not just by Wilby but also Zac Stubblety-Cook and Sam Williamson of Australia.
      Stunned Peaty said: “I just don’t know what went wrong. I felt really good to 50m but with 25m to go I just had nothing in the tank.

      “That was the lack of training, the lack of racing. I couldn’t pinpoint what went wrong but it was two seconds slower than the Olympics.”
      Peaty, pointed to his injury, having conceded before Birmingham that he was “blindfolded” about his fitness.
      He added: “It took a broken foot to get it away from me. If you don’t race all season it bites you when it matters.
      “But I chose to fight. I don’t really care about the stats and how long I’m undefeated.

      “I can’t even remember when I went that slowly so it’s a shock and a disappointment.
      “The next two years are about how I peak in Paris. That will be a challenge but it is my target.”
      Peaty’s disbelief was palpable. Even since emerging onto the senior stage at Glasgow 2014, nobody has been able to crack his veneer of calm assurance.
      But after turning in front — albeit just 0.13secs clear of Williamson — Peaty hit the wall.
      Wilby’s time of 59.25sec would have been enough to finish LAST in the Tokyo final won by Peaty, who insists he will race in today’s 50m event.
      But the Glasgow-born 28-year-old did not care about his time — and rightly so.
      Wilby said: “Adam is phenomenal, the fastest breaststroker in the world. You can never take that away from him. Sometimes it’s about taking your opportunities.
      “I’m so happy but he’ll probably kick me in the a*** later in the year. He’ll be back.”
