Sheffield Utd still suing the Premier League
Sep 23, 2008 Featured Article, West Ham News
Sheffield Utd have not finished they are still in the process of suing the Premier League.
Sheffield United argued that West Ham won at least three points inspired by Tevez during the 2006-07 season, when the Tevez was illegally registered at West Ham.
We have to remember that the hearing has so far only said they find in favour of the little fizzy pop league club and no financial award has been given, the award of payment will be fought out for months to which West Ham can accumulate more interest on the money before parting with what will be agreed by both clubs, and there is a possibility by West Ham to appeal by registering an appeal against the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne, something i am sure the legal bigwigs at West Ham are already considering.
Sheffield Utd are still in the process of suing the Premier League because they feel that justice was not served in the 2007 hearing by the Premier League where West Ham were fined £5.5m and Sheff U stayed relegated.
It is not possible to deduct points from West Ham now and also impossible for Sheff Utd to be promoted, and to be honest, looking at the stats for Sheffield Utd and the amount of good players that have jumped ship, it could be a few more seasons until they find their way to top class football.

Success or Not?
Jul 27, 2008 Columbus Crew, MLS All Stars, Matches
Back in March we found out that we would be playing in this years MLS All-Stars game in Toronto, a game that many MLS fans were not too happy about and considered it to be a waste of time, to which i wrote about in this POST.
The tour is now over and the players are all back home, hopefully training. Did the tour work out for us? will North Americans run out and buy a new shirt each season? has West Ham shown the World what a great team it is? Well there is no doubt that West Ham will be remembered for a year at least, the MLS have never had so much media coverage in its 12 year life and already the MLS bigwigs are setting up next years opponents, Wow does that mean that West Ham are as well loved in North America as Chelsea and Man Utd are? its doubtful but we certainly have raised the profile of the club, not in the way we wanted but mainly due to the Crew Saga.
To me, the Tour was a success and West Ham are probably known by 10 times more North Americans than they was this time last year, the US TV ratings for the All-Stars game was higher than any MLS Game played, So well done West Ham United, Lets conquer Russia next season.

Premier League All-Stars - Man Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, West Ham

Good or bad idea? Dean Ashton seems to think its a brilliant idea, so how would the team be picked?
The MLS All-Star squad is selected by voting from fans, the media, team head coaches and general managers, so would that mean Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool & Arsenal players only in the team.
I can see the bigwigs at the EPL headquarters rubbing their hands with the thought of more income.
Playing this game mid season would cause games to be postponed and could also bring on unnecessary injuries to what is already hectic for some teams during a season.
So is it a good idea, or should we just stick to Premier League football and battle it out for Euro places.
