Arsenal Under Investigation Over Secret Payments To Beveren

Just heard this evening that our beloved Arsenal Fc is under investigation of its relations with Beveren. Basically they have been accused of paying some money to the Belgium side and something about wanting to own the club too. Sepp Blatter has been huffing and puffing.

Penalty if proved of wrongdoing: Suspension from UEFA champions league among others

I hear some Spurs fans screaming deliriously.

this is definetely scary news to me.
out of the champions league? God forbid!

Fifa has launched a probe into whether Arsenal have broken regulations which may leave the club exposed to possible expulsion from the Champions League.  BBC Newsnight has learnt that a police probe in Belgium has concluded Arsenal made secret payments of £1m to Beveren.  Arsenal have admitted providing a loan to Beveren, but say they have never had a controlling influence over the club.  Fifa are investigating whether Arsenal have breached rules governing fair play and conflict of interest.

Statement From Arsenal FC
Arsenal Football Club is aware that BBC Newsnight is carrying a story this evening purporting to describe Arsenal's relationship with Belgian football club, Beveren.

Arsenal does not normally make public its agreements with third parties. However, Arsenal can confirm that it has had a technical relationship with Beveren since 2001. This relationship has a number of benefits to both clubs such as providing a platform to share coaching methods and techniques as well as facilitating the option of players being loaned between the clubs. For example, during the course of the relationship, Arsenal players David Grondin, Liam Chilvers, John Halls and Graham Stack all spent successful loan periods at Beveren as did Emmanuel Eboue, who played in a number of trial matches with Arsenal whilst contracted to Beveren. Such was the latter player's success, Arsenal subsequently signed Eboue on a permanent basis.

In addition, Arsenal confirms that it has never owned, directly or indirectly, any shares in Beveren or had any power whatsoever to influence its management or administration. It did in 2001 provide funds of 1,570,703 Euros by way of loan to a member of the consortium to assist in stabilising the finances of Beveren.

At no time has anyone at Arsenal been contacted by any regulatory or investigatory body with respect to its relationship with Beveren. Arsenal and all its staff have acted properly throughout, in accordance with all applicable rules and regulations, and in the best interests of Beveren, Arsenal and the broader footballing community.

I'm sure they'll wiggle out of this.  I don't see what's wrong with what they've done.  Or do you?

Those Spurs! I guess it has to be, the news is too coincidence, how come when the noise over Spurs not qualifying for champions league at the expense of Arsenal has not died down, the food poisoning on the other hand, and now this again. So should Arsenal found guilty (God Forbids) and was disqualified from playing champions league, who is taking their place - Well you know the rest. Some unseen forces just don't want us to play in the lucrative league next year.

thats goood news to me ohhhhh

~~~manutd till i die~~~

Arsenal will get out of it.

Whether guilty or not.

G14 member: no way!

aamen , we'll get out of it!

Fellow Gunners
At a time like this, we must remain steadfast and prayerful as our enemies continue to roar like lions seeking whom they may devour.
On this occasion, they have failed. If they try anything else, they will fail. Infact they are failures.They can only fail.
By now you will think spurs would be used to playing second fiddle -just like Atiku. But for where? They still try to engage us the incumbent in mind games.
HOLD IT FOLKS  i just contacted my gazing ball AND I SEE SPURS PLAYING IN THE GLOBACOM PREMIER LEAGUE IN THE YEAR 20,
Did i hear an Amen from the faithfull?,



Nothing Else but a GUNNER!

Being a member of G14 is not the reason Arsenal will get out of this  >> jealousy jealousy na him dey worry them -shina peters 

arsenal will get out of this because they have not breached any rules 

its clearly stated in they have a technical agreement plus most clubs have agreements with clubs in Eruope

Man utd have an agreement with Lyn Oslo

enemies of progress  dig deeper 

that's why Chelsea wants to join  they've been snubbed _-again

I'm not hating just point out some facts 

Mikel will be loaned to reading/brentford _{according to a source who pleaded annoynimty like da nigerian press will say}

I can't wait to see him playing against Cesc, Rooney,Ronaldo, and Gawking at Henry 

Bagoma Bagoma Bagoma!!!

didnt u hear obasanjo when he talked about 100% loyalty  now go get the polish n polish that "gun" ready for another thrilling adventure next season 

football is a team game -11 platers!! _{henry is a winger-striker, he was playing midfield,defence n striker! when he works for the bal in midfield who does he pass to erm no one- thats enough to make him tired, henry to me actually enjoy making others (team-mates) the hero, goal scorer , the main man!}

i didnt see people crucifying shev, Rrrrrruuudebwoy Van N for not reaching the finals 

Arsenal not die ooo

Well, if thats your prayer for the boy, its not going to be answered.

I want Nigerians and indeed Afrivan players to be playing for big league whether they merit it or not.

C'mmon guys, support your own.

Somebody was bought by United for £30m. A player that cannot even play half of the football Uche okechukwu plays.

Yet his people call him best defender in the world.

Relax! Arsenal is surely more organised and mature than  that. Watch where this is going to end up.

This all goes to show that Arsenal is a corrupt club full of crooks who have no biz playing in the Premiership.Even their players behave like crooks
