Hart & Rooney were both poor at the euros yet they are both the first names on Sams team sheet. Now it seems they are both Sams partners in a business venture in Newcastle. Just saying like. Hope his transfer dealings were clean when he was here. We don`t need an investigation and a points deduction. ffs we`ve only got one.
Some dodgy agents have been spilling the beans... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/201...ier-league-managers-took-transfer-bungs-clai/ No names yet but this could get very ugly. In quotes | Managers on the make ... as described by agents Manager 1 Ex-Premier League manager allegedly liked “bungs” in cash or deposited in a Swiss bank account. Pagliara said: “I can call [X] now and all it is with [X] is 'How much, Pino? And will it be the same Swiss bank account?’” Manager 2 Ex-top flight manager has had “more backhanders than Wimbledon”. Pagliara said: “This is what I hate... the guy that used to need the money but he’s had so much now that all of a sudden he’s whiter than white.” Manager 3 After managing several British clubs, he was allegedly fired by one for having “his fingers in the till”. Pagliara said he would get involved if “you understand that when we do deals I have to have a carrier bag with some cash”. Manager 4 Pagliara said of this boss with Premier League experience: “We know him very, very well. We do a transfer, [X] has winked at us and said 'Yeah, I want the player. Is there a little coffee for me, Pino?’ Yeah, course there is.” Manager 5 Ex-Premier League manager who, said Pagliara, would call him and say “here’s the number”, and give him details of a Swiss account. He said: “It was always numbered accounts.” Manager 6 A former player who now manages, he allegedly likes extra money to secure deals because he is not on a big salary at his club. Pagliara said: “[X] takes a few [inaudible] because he’s not being paid big money.” Manager 7 Ex-Premier League manager is another “we can put on the payroll”. If a player was transferred for £10m, “we’ll turn round to [X] and say, listen, if you take this player we’ll look after you. OK? OK, boom.” Manager 8 Agent Dax Price said this long-serving manager would pick three trusted players and tell them he was paying them an extra £8,000 per month, on condition that they paid him £4,000 per month each.
says it all......Short would never have him back, anyway. He's big, he'd dodge, he takes it up the rodge Allardyce, Allardyce
Sam is finished in English football man - as said before, what if they'd done this and he managed us - we might have a couple of wins on orur books but we'd still have to sack him so we'd be 2 months into the season and managerless again! He's made his bed - now he gets to **** in it - wonder if his talkshite "I can;t wait for my first game at Wembley" is still on.... The FA are a laughing stock. This gaffer cost them £3m to us for one game then they have probably agreed a severance package with him of a couple of million I reckon. so £5m for one game - well done to the FA
Can almost guarantee one of them is Harry but he can;t read so he won't know about what the deal was!
I can see you playing the grumpy old mum part. Bitter twister frustrated that hubby never brought you a steak bake back from job seekers.
I would have him back as frankly don't give a toss that he is a dodgy bastard. Still think Moyes should be given a decent shot mind but if we are still in the bottom 3 by the start of December think it would be a no brainer.
I take it he was the friend of 30 years standing. Do you reckon he was duped by the paper as well, or was he part of the sting?
I actually know a lot more since coming home from work, I can't talk about it on a public forum at all.
