Sorry, is someone PHOTOSHOPPING these photos to give them TINY FACES on MASSIVE HEADS?

Because either way it's really funny.

Wonder if Allardyce has got anything to do with it as a manager of both and allegedly been looked at for dodgy dealing in the past
I can't imagine a manager would have anything to do with the actual club finances (or at least the tax arrangements)...surely?

It's interesting to note, that their faces appear to amount to around only 15% of their actual head size. if you drew a red line round those features, well only "uncomfortably odd" would accurately describe the results.

Be surprised if it's much more than a fine for the club. Sounds like Mondial sports agency is at the centre of it all. Chelsea have been visited by the HMRC too, which is good news for us. The more (and bigger) clubs involved, the more diluted the punishment will likely be.

I'd hate to see a points penalty for either club because it hurts the fans more than anyone else. If found guilty it's the greedy individuals looking to cheat the system that should be punished severely and set an example of.

So were any Newcastle players part of their dealings?

MSM are a massive presence in France and Belgium, so no surprise that they were the ones who ‘helped’ Aleksandar Mitrovic and Florian Thauvin arrive at St James Park.

In addition, last summer they were responsible for Newcastle’s two big summer signings from France, Remy Cabella and Emmanuel Riviere.

Whilst other names in their list of clients are Yohan Cabaye, Mathieu Debuchy, Hatem Ben Arfa and Moussa Sissoko.

It will be very interesting to find out how much Newcastle United spent on agents this summer, as the clubs are now duty bound to release that information.





No way, there's just no way our friends up the road can get dragged into this...



...can they?
