BOSS IAN: ARM BACK

The Sun (England)
August 17, 2006 Thursday

IAN PORTERFIELD was yesterday named as the new coach of Armenia.

The Scot, 60, replaces Dutchman Henk Wisman, who was fired four months
ago following a string of poor results.

Porterfield, who played for Sunderland, Sheffield Wednesday and Raith
Rovers, has extensive managerial experience.

He has been in charge of Sheffield Wednesday, Aberdeen and Chelsea
plus the national teams of Zambia, Zimbabwe and Trinidad & Tobago.

Armenia begin their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign at home to Belgium
on September 6.

Porterfield said: "There is never enough time in football. The work
will start immediately and I hope it will be successful."

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
