The New York Red Bulls added a new face to its coaching staff following the hiring of Gerhard Struber as head coach last week.

“Bernd is a very ambitious young trainer who will support our team in game planning and development,” said Red Bulls Head Coach Gerhard Struber. “Bernd and I have been in constant contact about football for several years. I am very happy to have won him for our project in New York.”
Eibler, who holds his UEFA A License, got his first senior team position with TSV Hartberg after working for his hometown club, SV Sigleß. Struber and Eibler were first introduced several years ago, when Eibler was breaking into the coaching ranks in Austria. The two have remained in touch and developed a relationship while working in separate places.
“I am very proud to get the chance to work in MLS and to be a part of the New York Red Bulls team,” said Eibler. “I’m looking forward for this awesome journey and can’t wait to start.”
Union’s Burke back in training after long absence
Cory Burke last played for the Philadelphia Union 18 months ago, but looks set to returning as early as this weekend for the MLS club.
Jim Curtin confirmed to reporters in a conference call on Tuesday that Burke has returned to training in Chester with the club. Burke previously had to leave the United States in 2018 due to Visa issues, but could return to the pitch in the Union’s Oct. 19th trip to New England.
“People forget he was our leading scorer when he left the team 18 months ago,” Curtin said. “It’s a great piece to have back. Not only in the locker room but obviously on the field. He adds to our stable of attacking players, Cory suits a lot of what we want to do.”
The 28-year-old has since played on loan in his native Jamaica with Portmore United as well as Austrian Bundesliga club SKN St. Poelten. He starred in the USL with the Union’s then-named Bethlehem Steel, before moving to the Union first team.
Burke scored 12 MLS goals in 36 appearances before totaling 11 goals in 18 matches on loan over the past year-and-a-half. A Jamaican international, Burke’s arrival would give Curtin another experienced option in attack to go along with Kacper Przybylko, Sergio Santos, and Andrew Wooten.
“He’s a guy that other teams’ defenders do not like to play against,” Curtin said. “I’ll put it that way. Even our guys, their first joke was ‘ah man, Cory’s back, we better wear our shin guards.’ It’s great to have him back. He’s a physical presence and a goalscorer.”
The Union would need an international roster spot to add Burke back to its MLS roster, which could see them force a trade soon with one of eight available clubs.

We are now less than a month away from what’s likely the most significant American election of our lifetimes, and many, many people are mobilizing to get out the vote. Among them: a remarkable 102-year-old Jewish woman named Beatrice Lumpkin.
A photograph of Lumpkin mailing in her absentee ballot — while wearing a homemade hazmat suit — recently went viral on social media.
A post shared by Chicago Teachers Union (@ctulocal1) on
Lumpkin was born in 1918, during the height of the Spanish Flu pandemic. As the Forward reports, she grew up in a working-class Jewish neighborhood in the Bronx; her parents were immigrants from Eastern Europe who worked in the garment industry, first in factories (including the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, the site of the deadly 1911 fire that catalyzed the Jewish labor movement) and then as owners of a laundry business.
As Lumpkin told The Washington Post, she hasn’t missed a presidential election since 1940, and she wasn’t about to miss one now, pandemic or no. “It’s always important to vote, but this election — it’s the most important one of my life,” she said, adding that “democracy is on the line.”
Lumpkin has dedicated much of her long life to activism: She joined the Young Communist League in her teens, where she was introduced to pro-union and anti-fascist causes. In the 1960s, Beatrice advocated for the inclusion of Black authors and Black history in Chicago Public Schools, where she was a math teacher. She ultimately taught about the history of Egyptian mathematics and wrote a book for kids centering the “multicultural history of mathematics” called “Senefer: A Young Genius in Old Egypt.”
“When I was born, women couldn’t vote,” she told CBS radio’s WBMM station, adding that her first ballot was cast for President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
As for this election, Lumpkin was a supporter of Bernie Sanders, but, as she told the Forward, “There’s no question that everything [Sanders] stands for requires the election of Joe Biden.”

As the photo of Lumpkin — wearing custom PPE designed by her grandson, Soren Kyale, also a Chicago Public Schools teacher — made its rounds online. Many politicians, regular people and organizations shared it, urging Americans to “be like Beatrice” and vote.
Lumpkin’s dedication to voting is a message of hope we all so desperately need right now. She also has a message for Jewish Americans, in particular: “Racism lives on, antisemitism lives on,” she told the Forward. “It’s always important for Jews to vote.”
