They'll probably get away with a small fine that they can easily afford. Cheeky fucks, kick them out of the football league. Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 17:26:11 Cheating again. :-))(
At the very minimum they should be demoted two divisions and banned from Europe. Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 17:31:33 Just like all of the big teams that have dodgy dealings. There wouldn't be a league if it was done that way though.
Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 18:43:30 Sounds like a feeder club deal where the Arse can tie up non-capped Africans and the like due to the relaxed visa regulations in Belgium.
A few seasons in Belgium and the Arse can then cream off the talent at minimal cost when the player qualifies for a UK work permit. Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: red macca on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 19:02:54 sorry if this has been posted already.but this is a joke i personally have nothing against arsenal.we got demoted in 1990 for far less than this yet i can promise you arsenal will not get demoted two divisions will they.
chelsea and spurs since 1990 have been found guilty for the same as we were done for and got small fines .the fa are a fucking joke sorry rant over :twisted: Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 19:17:24 I don't know it's certainly very dodgy and crossing the line but every big club is at it one way or another the Arse have just taken it to the next level.
Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 19:22:36 We did get properly screwed over. I expect Arsenal will manage to avoid any punishment on a technicality. :x
Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: Batch on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 20:27:05 The mist is clearing....I forsee as a maximum 25, 000 fine and a suspended sentance with no substance wahtsoever...
That'll learn 'em. Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: The Grim Reaper on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 21:05:40 Maybe if the arse get away with it lightly, Swindon should sue the FA over lost earnings etc....
... having said that, I was one of the 10,000 who marched through Swindon back in '91 as a protest about the demotion by the FA, so I guess i'd be hypicritical if I expected the arse to get the same punisment! Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: oxford_fan on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 22:51:15 Sounds like nothing too out of the ordinary, Man Utd are twinned with Antwerp to get EU clearance for their Non-EU players, and Chelsea have a similar arrangement with a number of clubs (one US club, some others)
Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 22:56:29 I thought Sheffield United own a Chinese club and hasn't Roman Igrabyourbitch (tits) got an interest in a Ruski club as well?

Since then, the Brazilian club have spent more than US$25 million on talented young players and are looking for more. Those who make the grade are expected to move to Chelski in the future. *Bought: Carlos Alberto (Porto), Dominguez (Newell's Old Boys), Carlos Tevez (Boca Jounior, striker). Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: McLovin on Friday, June 2, 2006, 07:41:36 I'd take 4th place off of them... :wink:
Title: Sketchyness at Arsenal Post by: janaage on Friday, June 2, 2006, 08:07:16 I think the problem here is that Arsenal didn't do it through the books. Utd's link with Royal Antwerp were disclosed. Aresnal seem to have "lent" this money to some business associate who then happened to invest in Beveren the club they signed Eboue from. Kick them out of the champions league, if found guilty, at the very least.
