For those who read the earlier post on COYI today stating that Gartside is an absolute idiot for his claims that West Ham robbed Bolton of 3 points for fielding Tevez in the season 2006/07 game at Upton park will have noticed the comments made from various Bolton fans showing their disgust at Gartside.
1 Comment from Richie B says:
I have been a bolton fan all my life, and I have to totally agree with all the other comments. Cartside is an absolute disgrace to the club and the term “football”. Scores should be settled on the pitch, and not in boardrooms/courts where greedy chairmen look for any excuses to line their pockets with even more money. Goes to show what poor character Gartside has as he is now considering selling the club to overseas investment, even though he has spent all his “professional” life ridiculing foreign investment. Let’s hope we do are talking on the pitch this weekend, and have a good game for once.
It is good to see that the Bolton fans have far more intelligence than their chairman, and that football is for the fans and not the courts.
West Ham United v Bolton Wanderers should prove to be a great match and a win for either club will be more beneficial than a measly £700,000 would ever do.

Phil Gartside is without doubt a very sad little character for claiming his teams defeat to West Ham in the 2006/07 season cost his club £700,000 in the end of league standing.
West Ham United will of course dispute this case and hopefully make the Bolton chairman look like the idiot that he is.
Phil Gartsides said:
“There is an argument to say we can claim three points from West Ham,”
“We went down there and lost 3-1, Tevez scored two and it cost us £700,000 because that was one place in the league.
“If Sheffield United are successful and get a claim then why shouldn’t we?”
Bolton finished 7th in the league that season with a total of 56 points and that is 2 points behind Everton, now lets take Tevez out of the picture, the score stands at 1-1!! which gives Bolton 1 extra point, still finishing in 7th place.
What grounds does this Idiot have for claiming 3 points.
I guess Bolton must need the publicity, it is just a shame they never get it from the games they play.
Sunday’s match against Bolton will prove the kind of silly damage he has caused his club with such a pathetic claim.

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.

As crazy as it sounds this is still a possibility. Kia failed in his bid to buy West Ham in 2006 and still has strong
desires to own the Club.
The out of court settlement, where Kia dropped his £7.1m lawsuit and instead will act as a transfer consultant for the Hammers is a bit mysterious but also probable.
I find it hard to believe Kia would be happy to lose £7.1m or even £1m, and be willing to gain his money back on future transfers to Upton Park, this will take years to even get anywhere near to what he claims West Ham owe him considering not every player he brings to Upton park will be like Tevez or Mascherano and reap the same profits for the Iranian, and we know that BG is suffering from the credit crunch, the new stadium is virtually a thing of the past and the lack of any spending this summer does Read the full story

From The Associated Press
Sheffield United on Monday embarked on their final legal challenge over the Carlos Tevez affair in an effort
to win compensation for being relegated a year ago.
The Blades have taken West Ham to an arbitration hearing and are seeking between £30million and £50million in compensation.
The Coca-Cola Championship club claim the Hammers are to blame for their relegation from the Premier League a year ago, and for playing Tevez, who they claim was ineligible.
West Ham have refused any opportunity to settle before the hearing and insist they have a robust case, based mainly on the grounds that they had provided all the relevant information about Tevez to the Premier League, who then declared the striker eligible after the Hammers had been fined £5.5million for breaching rules on third-party ownership of players.
Sheffield United lost an arbitration hearing against the Premier League last year and this action, which takes place under the auspices of the Football Association, is their last throw of the dice.
The Blades are hoping Tevez’s representative, Kia Joorabchian, may provide some new information that may persuade the latest panel to find in their favour.
Tevez moved from West Ham to Manchester United last summer after Joorabchian’s company, Media Sports Investments, agreed to pay the London club £2million.
The hearing, which is taking place behind closed doors in London, Read the full story

We all know about the Tevez saga, and how Kia wanted more money from West Ham for the loan of
Tevez during the final few games that kept us in the Premiership.
We obviously agreed to some sort of deal, the deal made between BG and Kia, i guess we as fans we will
never know of, but if it was £7m, then it was worth every penny.
BG, being the clever banker that he is, has agreed to pay back the so called £7m, but in installments and
as an agents fee over the next few years, now this is a clever business
strategy by BG, he certainly knows
he could use Kia to bring in more exiting young talent that he owns rights too from South American clubs.
I know i would love to see a mixture of South American talent as well as our homegrown boys playing at
Upton Park next season, wouldnt you?
Take a look at what influences Kia is having on Man City!
Forget the past, lets use Read the full story

I don’t give a T**S who Wins! now what does that tell you? Does it mean Man Utd v West Ham? Man Utd or Chelsea winning the League Title? or Man Utd v Chelsea in the Champions League Final?
Well its the latter 2 of course, as a neutral to Chelsea and Man Utd i really dont care who wins after the game between Man Utd and My beloved West Ham.
West Ham will play like trojans to defeat United, and as United know, defeating West Ham is no easy task, Ok some games we have played recently have been rather poor to say the least, but the game against Newcastle proved we have the ability to still burst bubbles, even though we did draw 2-2 with them.
The game on Saturday at 12:45 is 1 game that Read the full story

West Ham’s plea for help in the Tevez saga is to fall on deaf ears by clubs in the Premier League.
Sheffield Utd are suing West Ham for loss of funds because of relegation which could be in the region of £20m
West Ham’s secretary Peter Barnes, wrote a letter to the Premier Leagues 19 Clubs asking them to admit they were unaware of rules governing third party ownership of players.
Liverpool and Middlesborough, Wigan and Fulham will give their backing to Sheffield Utd, whilst other clubs will mostly tell West Ham your on your own. Read the full story
