TrentVilla Posted April 3, 2014 Moderator Share Posted April 3, 2014 There is that much of it I think it should have its own thread. To kick off 7 Football league players from the North West have been arrested and a further 6 re-arrested following an investigation into alleged money laundering and bribery.

ArteSuave Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Honourable mention for Uli Hoeness. Do Man City, Chelsea and PSG with their sham sponsorship deals count? Maybe Randy should have a go at a bit of corruption, all the cool kids are doing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 They've got away with nothing yet lads. This month is the big one for them because it's when the independent panel decide, based on the rules given to them by UEFA, whether they've all broken the rules. Now, the one glimmer of hope is that Barca have been whacked by that transfer ban. That surprised me. I just hope that this is indicative that the powers that be aren't a bunch of pushovers and that there's going to be some heavy handed punishments for words removed like City, PSG and the like.

ArteSuave Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I've just remembered one we all seem to have missed. The one that is the most important and also seemingly the most obviously corrupt. Those slimy bastards at FIFA. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers13 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I don't see why city or Psg should be punished for spending the same as Real Madrid or Barcelona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
