Raikkonen Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_2927512,00.htmlSKY SPORTS Portsmouth have confirmed that Harry Redknapp and Peter Storrie have been arrested by police investigating corruption in football. Reports had claimed that Redknapp and Storrie were among five people to have been arrested in raids on Wednesday. According to the Evening Standard's This Is London website, Leicester City chairman Milan Mandaric, Rangers midfielder Amdy Faye and football agent Willie McKay were also arrested. The City of London Police's economic unit headed the raid which is part of the same ongoing investigation which saw Tottenham defender Pascal Chimbonda arrested in September. Police confirmed earlier on Wednesday that five men - aged 69, 60, 55, 48 and 30 - had been arrested following raids. Arrests A spokeswoman for the Police said: "Five men have been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and false accounting as part of an ongoing investigation into football corruption. "Three searches are currently under way. Five additional searches at a variety of locations across the country have been concluded." The Police's investigation is separate to that of the Quest inquiry which was launched last year by the Football Association with Lord Stevens at the helm What is it for ?
danny. Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 was that directed at me? Apologies if I have missed a thread or something has already been iterated, but I only casually read the forum.
ThurmastonFox Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 In theory the club now could be seen as being obtained using ill-gotten gains. I wonder where that leaves us should the alleged allegations (he he he - wonderful English) be found to be true. Potentially worse than Administration? A transfer embargo? Points deduction? meh, pessism is the order of the day. I think that Mandaric is too shrewd of a business man to get his hands dirty, he would have too much to lose?
WetFlannel Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 surely we must be the most complicated club in england at the moment
David O'Leary Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 Read the forum pal Read the forum Read the forum Tom
MPH Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 What premiership clubs would they be? it was never shared which clubs but at the time of his signing they said this Leicester have fought off competition from Premiership sides to sign Iran international Hoessein Kaebi from Persepolis on a two-year contract. "Of course, the Premier League scouts were there watching so, for the past couple of days, it has been a question of getting him quietly into the country and bringing him up from Heathrow airport without anybody else hijacking the deal. It is a relief that we have got him." http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/05072007/58/...nian-kaebi.html it was on loads of websites but that was the one at the top of my google search and i couldnt be bothered to copy them all
Brainy Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 Dear oh dear.Do people read this forum? To be fair, the title of the other thread in which the news was broken in isn't exactly.. clear, if you get me.
MC Prussian Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 Ahh, the rollercoaster is on its way again... Don't we all love the way this club is jumping from one puddle into the other? FREE MANDY! (Smoke some weed and play some Bob Marley)
Nath Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 This is nothing to do with leicester. This is from 2003. Mandaric was at Portmouth. Therefore we should not be punished
danny. Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 just read the other thread, doh! yea, it isn't the clearest!
Nath Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 To be fair, the title of the other thread in which the news was broken in isn't exactly.. clear, if you get me. Considering it say's Milan nicked under it.
Webbo Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 it was never shared which clubs but at the time of his signing they said thishttp://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/05072007/58/...nian-kaebi.html it was on loads of websites but that was the one at the top of my google search and i couldnt be bothered to copy them all From Andy15 on TB quoting Iransportpress:"Leicester City's unsettled Iranian midfielder, who has barely played a game in his new team, has shown his interest in joining Perspolis. Afshin Ghotbi, is in negotiations with Hossein Kaebi's sporting agent to pave the way for the Iranian wonderkind to join Perspolis in mid-season. In assistance to Ghotbi's request, Habib Kashani too is in search to find a sponsor for Perspolis, to be able to pay off Kaebi's Leicester City contract cancellation fee. In the next few days, Hossein Kaebi's agent will head to England to formalize the negotiations." Strange that none of these premiership clubs are fighting for his services now.

Read red As one door opens...............oh crap! It's speculation at this point but Mandaric is 69
WetFlannel Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 This is nothing to do with leicester.This is from 2003. Mandaric was at Portmouth. Therefore we should not be punished still cant be the best thing in the world for publicity etc. having this hang over our chairmans head
Brainy Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 Nobody has said we would be punished. Or if they have they're wrong. Mandaric would be punished.
Zingari Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 Read redAs one door opens...............oh crap! It's speculation at this point but Mandaric is 69 not according to this sorry wrong link
Nath Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 Nobody has said we would be punished. Or if they have they're wrong.Mandaric would be punished. Read the topic. People are saying us having points deducted, tranfer embargos etc etc That is punishment to us.
Raikkonen Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 He will get a fine at that will be the end of it

WetFlannel Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 He will get a fine at that will be the end of it that will be the likely outcome...
sdb Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 i'd have thought it was all Pompey stuff seeing as Harry's in trouble and the whole scandal thing started a while back now - probably before MM came here. still could have some terrible repercussions for us though
Simi Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 I do this stuff for a living and am here to tell you that, following a conviction for most Money Laundering offences, the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 gives courts the power to confiscate any assets which the subject cannot prove are legitimate.Trust me, if he is found to be crooked he'll be left standing in his Filbert Fox boxer shorts. It's probably something and nothing tho'.................... From TB.
Nath Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 If Milan get's put away, or banned from football ownership, what would that mean for us? Extinction?
dandannieldanok Posted 28 November 2007 Posted 28 November 2007 Ahh, the rollercoaster is on its way again...Don't we all love the way this club is jumping from one puddle into the other? FREE MANDY! (Smoke some weed and play some Bob Marley) Foxestalk should set-up a campaign similar to that of the 'Free Deirdre' campaign on Coronation Street all those years ago if it's true.
