September 23, 200817 yr West Ham set to fight Blades' £30m compensation claim after tribunal finds against Hammers in 'Carlos Tevez affair' By Ken Dyer Last updated at 7:47 PM on 23rd September 2008 Comments (7) Add to My Stories West Ham are preparing to fight an independent tribunal's decision to rule in favour of Sheffield United over the Carlos Tevez affair. EXCLUSIVE: How Chris Wheeler broke the 'Tevez' tribunal story today The Upton Park club could be facing a crippling £30million damages payout but their lawyers are looking at ways to appeal against the decision which they believe could set a dangerous precedent for football. Scroll down for more Enlarge Vital goal: Carlos Tevez (left) beats United keeper Edwin van der Sar at Old Trafford to score the goal that kept West Ham in the Premier League in 2007 A club spokesman said: "We are digesting the report of the arbitration panel and will decide the next step once we have consulted with our lawyers." One possible route for West Ham would be to go to the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne. Another option for the club would be to reach a settlement with United before 2 October, when the compensation fee is due to be determined at a separate damages hearing. The Championship club are demanding £30,396,897 and 32p in lost revenue, including £4m for Phil Jagielka, who was sold to Everton for that sum as a result of relegation. Cross to bear: Carlos Tevez of Manchester United makes the sign of the Irons after switching to Old Trafford The decision by the tribunal, chaired by Lord Griffiths, has stunned West Ham, who had already been fined £5.5m by the Premier League in April 2007 for breaking transfer rules, including withholding documentation, over the controversial signing of Argentine pair Tevez and Javier Mascherano. The panel decided not to deduct points that would probably have seen the club relegated and Tevez was cleared to play, scoring the only goal against Manchester United on the last day of the season at Old Trafford. West Ham eventually finished on 41 points with Sheffield United going down on 38. West Ham, who lost their main sponsor XL earlier this month after the travel company went into liquidation, would have to sell players to find that sort of amount at a time when owner and chairman Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson is already trying to make the club self-sufficient.

Scroll down for more Signing on: Carlos Tevez (left) and Javier Mascherano (right) with then West Ham manager Alan Pardew The judgement on the Tevez affair, announced today, reads: "On the totality of the evidence, we have no doubt that West Ham would have secured at least three fewer points over the 2006-07 season if Carlos Tevez had not been playing for the club. "Indeed, we think it more likely than not on the evidence that we heard, that even over the final two games of the season, West Ham would have achieved at least three points less overall without Mr Tevez. "He played outstandingly well in the two wins that West Ham secured on those last two games."

September 27, 200817 yr Lol at Man City losing to the all powerful Brighton We gonna hammer wigan tomorrow ! The Braziliants will be back !
September 27, 200817 yr Nice to see Conaldo back doing what he does best and diving to turn a perfectly legal tackle into a penalty He did get tripped, refs fault, not Ronaldo's.
September 27, 200817 yr I think it got old about 2 seasons ago though, when an entire nation of fans was booing him for winking
September 27, 200817 yr Do you think he will be off to Madrid come next summer? And what do you think will happen to Owen?
September 27, 200817 yr I don't think either of them will go Ronaldo is the more likely departure of the 2, but I still think he was just throwing his weight about a bit I posted in another thread, I feel that Owen is committed to the club, he is our captain and he acts like it, I love him and I would be distraught if he left, I really hope I don't have to eat my words but I am confident he will still be here next season
September 27, 200817 yr The problem your facing with Owen is: 1 - His contract is up some Summer, therefore he can go on a freebie unless he signs a new contact or gets sold during january 2 - Ashley doesn't want to pay his mega-money wages, and wants Owen to take a pay-cut.
September 27, 200817 yr Ashley wont be there, the new owners will happily offer him a new contract, of that I am sure.
September 27, 200817 yr The ones he is inevitably going to sell to. Likely contenders, a Nigerian consortium. He is definitely going to sell. Even if he doesn't I am suspicious of any reports I have heard of offered contracts, you don't realise how much shit the tabloids talk until you read about Newcastle in them
September 27, 200817 yr There are 2 types of owners: 1 - The type which got Man City who are running the club as a play-thing as they are super-rich 2 - The type which will run the football club as a business and not pay over the odds for players etc.
