West Ham are potentially to be kicked out of the FA cup, should some corrupt guy at FIFA who have it in for the FA (IMO) find that they breached International selection versus club rules... see article...

However for once, I think something sounds dodgy here, with the player allegedly unable to fly due to a back injury, but able to be chauffeured to the game and of course play, with the same mysterious back injury....

 

your thoughts?

I'm more interested to see Bristol City clutching at the pound signs, I wished clubs could reverse the threat based on no punishment going their way. I think people should always wait to see what happens, not threaten action based on what seems like a silly argument.

Anyone who has had back problems will know that it makes even minor exercise torture, never mind a game of football! And Fat Sam and West Ham's team of medical staff know this full well. Hopefully they'll throw this odious little club out of the competition.

@DangerousSausage love the sentiment, but I think "Odious" may be a tad strong...

i dont see how they can prove it either way, so the benefit of the doubt should go to the player and club.

Didn't his country's doctors rule him out?

@Captain Sticky Oh? That's a new one on me... did they? I still smell a rat, I am just not sure if it fat sam or septic bladder

WHU are still in the cup:

That's a few extra martini's for the bladder to cope with, eh
