OldNick Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 This deal summed up for me what is wrong with football.During the summer man u were complaining about Real Madrids actions and then do the same to spurs. Theyu even at the end got spurs to agree not to go forward with their complaint to the PL.
stevegrant Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 It's all so hypocritical. There's something inherently wrong when Berbatov, who had been solely granted permission to speak to Manchester City, is spotted by TV cameras shaking hands with Alex Ferguson and David Gill at Old Trafford...
Hatch Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 Can the FA / Premier League still press charges of some sort against Man Utd even if Spurs don't complain...
Colinjb Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 Can the FA / Premier League still press charges of some sort against Man Utd even if Spurs don't complain... Should be able to. They where so blatantly flouting rules on transfers that it is obscene.
PompeyLass Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 I absolutely detest Man U with a passion & I sincerely hope that something is done about their latest situation. These top 4 clubs should not be untouchable.

You have a club that has had its computers confiscated and also involved in dodgy deals and so should also look at your own actions.
PompeyLass Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 Hey hold on Pompey are not whiter than white. You have a club that has had its computers confiscated and also involved in dodgy deals and so should also look at your own actions. I never said we were. It just makes me laugh that they were screaming to all & sundry about Real approching that tosser & they've done more or less the same thing with Spurs. Top 4 clubs - one rule for them & another for everyone else. Shouldn't be allowed to happen & until the lillywhite FA pull their heads from out of the top 4's arses it'll continue to kill football.

They havent sorted your lot out and so why would we expect the top 4 to be looked at. Man u etc are such a draw they have all the power and the PL are frightened to upset them. Until fans like myself get the will to stop Sky subscriptions the big clubs will weild more and more power. In the 80's Iwas beating the drum to cut the big clubs adrift as they were flexing their muscles to go into a european league unless we gave in to them regarding the home gate receipts not being shared anymore.The league caved in and then they just got bigger and the gulf is widening every season.

I agree, but I would go even further and suggest that there is one rule for Manchester United, another for the remaining Top 3, and yet another for the rest in the Premiership.
OLYMPIC Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 I notice with Berbatov he never came out and said come and get me to Man utd,seems to just left Spurs in the dark as much as possible. But it is about time the FA/Premier league did something about various transfers because regardless of the money you get back these players signed contracts they liked at the time then ignore however long it has left to run,take Ronaldo he has about 4 years left on his deal another club should not be aloud to aproach him full stop.
equalizer Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 The phrase "hush money" is being banded about. Bet that didn't go through the books hey Mr. Levvy! Spurs are just as bad, the way they tapped up Dean Richards, amongst others. This sort of thing has been going on for years, Cloughie did it all the time.

Don't forget their "fact-finding" mission in Seville this time last year where they just happened to bump into Juande Ramos...
Saint Keith Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 ,take Ronaldo he has about 4 years left on his deal another club should not be aloud to aproach him full stop. i do agree with the sentiment, and really ******* hate man utd and their hipocrosy (sp?), but at the same time, if you or i sign a contact in just about any other job, we have the right to excercise notice to end it. why should football be any different
OLYMPIC Posted 2 September, 2008 Posted 2 September, 2008 Football should be the same and i agree a player should have the right to exercise notice to end it but and it's a big but you or i are not going to have another company paying 30 or 40 million pound for us. So maybe they have to look at letting the player go for an agreed transfer fee with compensation for remainder of contract and if it's a big club some comensation for merchandise,which is also one of the main reasons for signing a big name.
