    Apparently, some reports have stated HMRC investigation and that the Newcastle MD has been arrested

    180 police involved in the investigation in north-east & the south-east of England also involving the French authorities,believed to involve tax/customs offences.

    To be fair to West Ham, I can't blame them for trying to save a few quid, their new stadium must be costing them a fortune.

    If they are found guilty, can we all expect we expect a tax rebate? ;)

    Appears to be related to transfers. But in West Ham's case, you never know what else they may come acrosss as a result of the raid :-)

    It comes as Moore Stephens begin their work on behalf of the Mayor on the Stadium deal.

    Haven't West Ham had enough of our money?

    Will the police be questioning an out of work man who managed both clubs and liked to sign French players?

    I have absolutely no sympathy for Wet Spam. The Tevez and Mascherano debacle put paid to that.

    I so hope this time we get that slimy bastard Pardew and west ham.

    still to this day the commissions response to Tevez and Mascherano pisses me off-

    "The players and fans of West Ham are in no way to blame for the situation and therefore should not suffer"

    what about other teams fans who suffered. in fact its even more of a joke when you look at the amount of fans who are suffering now with nothing done about it including ourselves but especially west hams neighbours Orient, meanwhile those lucky hammers are getting a stadium at the expense of us. but of course they should as we don't want any of their fans to suffer. ahh look at them playing with their bubbles, arnt they cute. f**king tossers.

    That's a massive operation, 50 police officers raiding West Ham at 8am. Sounds a bit OTT unless there is something serious there

    HMRC officers I believe. But yes, looks pretty serious - tax and NI fraud which would indicate perhaps payments to agents and/or players in brown envelopes.

    english football is full of corruption im afraid the premier league in particular its been ruined, for example only could the national manger be sacked and then get a job at a league club, greedy bastards the lot of them that all eat out of the same trough, easy for us to say because were in league 1 and got some lunatic that owns us so no chance of us ever getting pl, but at least at this level we do play some decent run clubs where there is an atmosphere etc, look at the premier league games on telly a load of tourists waving selfie sticks and mobile phones about.

    this liverpool fan for example is bang on;

    i know not on subject but working quite close to stamford bridge, when they play midweek see a lot of there fans, the sheer amount of tourists there are beyond a joke i also see the ticket touts doing a roaring trade, cousin is a st holder and a few seasons back as he had a spare i went to a midweek game think against swansea or southampton, 4 rows in front of us was a family who had literally bought every item of chelsea clothing they could get get there hands on they were russian i think as heard them speaking, half hour into the match, a steward came and told them the bad news that the tickets they had got in with were fake they had paid £200.00 per ticket in a block where the face value of the ticket would of been £32.50, they got chucked out and that was the end of it.
