Default Chelsea at it again.

Tapping up that is - Tottenham's Frank Arnasen over the weekend - Who's now been suspensed.

Apparently a load of permiership clubs are asking Spurs to make an official complaint to the FA, if they do, and Chelsea are found guilty, then they will be start the season on minus 12 points and be banned from trading players during the current transfer window.

Can't see it happening to be honest but consistently ignoring the rules needs to be dealt with.

Minus 12 points and we'll still win the league

Must admit, they do seem to be getting out of hand , though with the Arnesen case, Chelsea have said they did ask for permisson first. We will find out in the next few days

They did ask permission but cc'd that e-mail to Arnesen, so it's not like Spurs could turn them down and he'd never know, they turned them down but it was too late his head had been turned, nothing wrong with Chelsea wanting him it's the arrogance in the way they go about it which is putting some noses out of joint, oh well keeps the ABU's at bay will we see ABC's from now on??

The Spurs fans at work who adored Mourinho, thought he was the bollox last season are outraged, "oh now they've fooked with our club they can **** off, we hate Chelsea" but it was funny to them when the whole Cole thing blew because they were screwing the Gooners and it wasnt a problem to dear old spurs fans then.

Looks like according to todays stories that We are going to ask for Scot Parker plus Mikael Forsell on a season long loan as compensation for Arnesen jumping ship !! Sounds like a fair deal to me

Only bummer is if that happens we won't report Chelscum to the premier league and they will get away with tapping up again

The one thing that really annoys me is how this story didn't come out until the week after the deadline for renewing our season tickets !! When the initail contact was made over two weeks ago They wait until they have all our money in and then let the story out !!

Still on a brighter note, Jol has committed his future to the club along with Paul Robinson

Come on you Spurs !!!

How does this count as 'tapping up'? Frank Arnesen isn't even a player.

Doesn't matter, he is still regarded as a member of Spur's staff and threfore subject to FA rules.

At least you'll have two decent players next season

I found it funny when it happened to both the Gooners & Golders Green Utd

Less funny when St Gerrard was mentioned though


I'm sorry, but since when is a £300k fine serious to a man who earns that in the time it takes the rest of us to shout '**** Off Chelski'

Yeah to go into the squad along with all the other quaility players we have
TBH I cant see either of them being garenteed a starting position at WHL, Forsell for Defoe!!! Parker on the other hand is a much better player and think Carrick and Parker could form a good partnership in midfield but then there is also Mendes and Brown to contend with

And if the rumours are true, I am glad its Parker we get on a pemenant deal on Forsell on loan, as don't rate him that high, good 4th choice replacement for Mido who wants off but no better than that !!

Of course I did, but what Spurs fan wouldn't
As they probably found it funny when we got docked 6 points and kicked out of the F.A cup in the nineties !!

£300K fine in todays game is f**k all to all premier league clubs, 3 points on the other hand is nothing to Chelsea, but would hit other clubs harder, I think to stamp it out they should have gone higher, say 12 points just to make an example of ANY club that does it not just Chelsea !!
The F.A need to clean the game up !!
