    Blades to sue West Ham

    Sheffield United are to sue West Ham for the cost of their relegation from the Premier League.

    The Blades were relegated after the Premier League opted not to dock West Ham points for fielding an ineligible player in Carlos Tevez.

    Sheffield United have estimated the cost of their relegation at between £30m-£50m.

    The Blades claim West Ham gained an unfair advantage by signing an illicit player in Tevez.

      I am ****ing sick and tired of Sheffield United. They were **** they went down deal with it!
      I think it's a foul, and if the ref gives it. He got to give a penalty. I know it's outside the box, but you see them given that close to the area. So if the ref gives it he's got to give the penalty as it so close to the area. But I think it's a penalty. Robbie Savage 8/11/06

      Are you watching Manchester United? Are you watching Chelsea? This is Liverpool F.C taking over the bloody world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        Maybe Sheff Utd supporters could sue the owners of the club for fleecing them out of £25 a week to watch the ****e they were serving up last year.

        They could go one further and sue Neil Warnock for mis-managing the team and getting them relegated whilst earning a ****ing fortune in the process and doing a bunk as soon as they went down.

          Whilst I agree that they should just let it go as they went down because they were not good enough, it really is a disgrace that West Ham got away with playing a player whom they never owned, which is against the rules. I'd love to see West Ham go down.

            If the Premier League weren't so utterly spineless and corrupt, Sheff Utd wouldn't have gone down.
            There won't be many clubs/companies who'll let 30-50 million quid go.

            I hope the Blades do take Ice Ham for 50 million.

              I'd really like to see Sheff Utd lose the playoff final this year.

              Mainly to see who they blame it on.

                If we found out that Milan fielded a player they didn't own for the Champions league final, would you let that go?

                  To be honest I think that they have to try the best for their club. he PL ****ed up with the reasoning it gave for it's actions and has left itself and West Ham open for a good financial kicking if their is any justice in the world.

                  I actually think that the right punishment was probably arrived at and like in previous instances the new owners should have been allowed to start with a clean slate in terms of points etc. It is the bull**** 'it wasn't the fans fault' reasoning and the web of bull**** spun by both the PL and West Ham afterwards which got me. I remain baffled why west ham couldn't have signed a new agreement identical in form to the one we had for Mascherano that covered Tevez 'til the end of the season. The crap about tearing up the original agreement was clearly a load of bollocks as the unsueing Tevez to Man U debacle proved.

                    I agree. The Premier League made a right royal **** up of it and allowed West Ham to effectively get away with breaking the rules.

                      Don't you think they have a point with the Tevez case?

                      He was the main reason Ice Ham stayed up to be fair.

                        I can understand the school of thought that Sheff U didn't win enough games and blew it big time against Wigan, AT HOME, on the final day, but there can surely be no argument that West Ham CHEATED and have been allowed to get away with it by a corrupt-as-**** Premier League. No wonder t'Blaaaaades feel totally cheated.

                        Brown envelopes still rule, seemingly.

                          Yeah, and the player in question virtually destroyed us on his own and scored a hat-trick in a 3-0 win....

                          EVERYONE would be up in arms. People are allowing a hatred for Warnock/Sheff United to get in the way of the real, sporting issue. End of.

                            What would cause even more of an uproar is if Parry et al did decide to "let it go".There'd be a lynching.

                            I really don't see what else Sheff Utd can do to get justice. The club administrators wouldn't get away with letting it go, the fans would tear them apart. If they've explored every avenue and still failed then at least they can look their supporters in the eye and say they did their best.

                              What gets me is that they didn't even make them sort it out conclusively between being found guilty and the end of the season. The whole thing stunk and then led to the frankly embarrassing farrago this summer.

                              Especially when a ready made solution was in front of everyone which would have made at least most people happy in a deal along the lines we had with Mascher. Even if it wasn't corruption it was certainly gross incompetence and I hope some one looses their job over it.
