Cheating again. :-))(
At the very minimum they should be demoted two divisions and banned from Europe.

Just like all of the big teams that have dodgy dealings. There wouldn't be a league if it was done that way though.

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.

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:

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.

We did get properly screwed over. I expect Arsenal will manage to avoid any punishment on a technicality. :x

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!

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)

I thought Sheffield United own a Chinese club and hasn't Roman Igrabyourbitch (tits) got an interest in a Ruski club as well?

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) One Brazilian club in particular 'Corinthians' who Carlos Tevez went to even though a number of top sides were interested in him i.e Milan,Barca,Real Madrid etc etc but of course he chose those Giants of Football Corinthians. 3 # : Links with South America: Abramovich is alleged to be the man financing Media Sports Investment (MSI), which last years agreed to a 10-year partnership with Corinthians for US$35 million.
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).

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.
