deaths_friend Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Apparently Phil Dowd and Tomas Rosicky being investigated by Interpol after suspicious betting patterns following yesterday's 4-4 draw. hope rosicky isnt implicated too seriously in this situation. apologies if this has been already posted. Chelsea's annual wage bill has soared to £172.5 million - almost £40 million more than the next highest payers Manchester City. The figure for the year ending June 2010 is revealed in Chelsea's full annual accounts lodged with Companies House on Friday and shows a significant increase on the previous year. In 2009, the club spent £165.6 million on wages but that sum included pay-offs worth £12.6 million to sacked manager Luiz Felipe Scolari and his assistants. Excluding the pay-offs, the rise in wages is £19.5 million and represents a 12.7% increase. Manchester City's wage bill is £133.3 million, Manchester United's £131.7 million and Arsenal are fourth with £110 million spent annually on salaries, according to their most recent accounts. Chelsea's wages are 82% of their turnover - more healthy than City's 106% - but way off United's level of 46% and Arsenal's of 49%. The figures also confirm that Chelsea reported losses of £70.9 million compared to £44.4 million the previous year. The club indicated earlier this week that they believe they will halve their losses in the next financial year. The latest accounts also reveal that Chelsea will be liable for £3.8 million extra in National Insurance contributions if HM Revenue and Customs succeeds in its legal case that image rights payments should be taxed as income. If that is proved, the players themselves would be liable to pay any tax individually in relation to image rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc_squared Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Wolfsburg sack Steve McClaren as German strugglers lose patience with ex-England boss By Sportsmail Reporter Last updated at 5:24 PM on 7th February 2011 Comments (0) Add to My Stories Ex-England manager Steve McClaren has been sacked by German strugglers Wolfsburg after just eight months in charge. Pierre Littbarski, McClaren's former No 2, will replace the former Middlesbrough manager in charge of the 12th-placed Bundesliga club following a string of poor results with the 1-0 weekend defeat to Hannover the final straw. Writing's on the wall: Steve McClaren has been sacked as manager of German outfit Wolfsburg It was the club's second on the spin and continued a miserable sequence of just one win in 11 in the German top flight. In 21 games at the helm, McClaren managed just five wins. 'VfL have parted ways with Steve McClaren. Pierre Littbarski is taking over,' the club said in a statement on Monday. The one-time assistant to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United leaves with the club, champions just two seasons ago, sitting 12th in the 18-team Bundesliga, just one point above the relegation zone. Wolfsburg chief executive Dieter Hoeness said: 'We were not convinced that we could have a stable collaboration with Steve McClaren until the end of the season. We tried it, but unfortunately we have now lost the belief. 'Following the recent negative results we cannot underestimate our situation in the table. Being only one point clear of the relegation places, we are alarmed. 'Now it's just a question of increasing the gap to the relegation places as soon as possible.' Missed opportunity: McClaren's final act in charge was to fine midfielder Diego after he missed a crucial penalty against Hannover, one that he should not have taken Explaining Littbarski's elevation to the hot seat, Hoeness added: 'We talked at great length with him. He has convinced us that he will take the necessary measures in our situation.' McClaren has seen his stock plummet in German football after joining Wolfsburg amid much expectation in May last year, fresh from guiding FC Twente to their first ever Dutch title. In joining the Wolves the 49-year-old became the first Englishman to manage in the German top flight, but quickly found that he was unable to replicate the success he had enjoyed in Holland, with Wolfsburg losing his first three league games in charge. Although the team recovered slightly, wins remained hard to come by and a recent sequence of seven straight league draws underlined their lack of cutting edge. In the firing line: McClaren lasted just eight months at the Wolfsburg helm Wolfsburg chairman Dr Francisco Javier Garcia Sanz revealed the club gave McClaren every opportunity to turn their season around, but in the end were forced to act with the Yorkshireman just nine months into a two-year contract. 'We have not seen any alternative,' he said. 'Of course we all want to see continuity, particularly in the coaching position. Therefore, we have been waiting a long time with the decision. 'The supervisory board and management now believes, however, that the team cannot continue under Steve McClaren.' McClaren began his managerial career at Middlesbrough in 2001 having earlier had spells as assistant to Jim Smith at Derby and Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United. McLaren enjoyed much success at Middlesbrough, winning the Carling Cup in 2004 and reaching the final of the UEFA Cup in 2006. He was subsequently appointed as Sven-Goran Eriksson's successor as England boss in August 2006 but was sacked when the team failed to qualify for Euro 2008.

See you in court: Arsenal to sue French TV station after match-fixing slurs follow 4-4 draw with Newcastle By Sami Mokbel Last updated at 5:43 PM on 7th February 2011 Comments (4) Add to My Stories How did that happen? Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas (left) and Robin Van Persie after the 4-4 draw with Newcastle Arsenal are set to sue a French TV station after it reported the dramatic 4-4 draw against Newcastle on Saturday was under suspicion of match-fixing. The Gunners went 4-0 up at St James’ Park but only managed a draw after a stirring second-half comeback from the Magpies. And France 2 over the weekend reported the Barclays Premier League clash was being looked at by Interpol over allegations of ‘strange movements of money.’ But Interpol this morning denied the broadcaster’s claims insisting there was no such investigation, while the Premier League have not been made aware of any betting irregularities in connection with the match. And now the furious north London club is seeking advice over the allegations with a view to starting legal proceedings against the channel.
