Don't mention Manny or Carlos…
Starting to get a bad feeling about this. Just as West Ham look like going on a decent FA Cup run FIFA has opened disciplinary proceedings against West Ham and Sakho for "a potential violation of regulations" over the player's appearance against Bristol City. No-one seems to know what any potential punishment might be, though expulsion from the FA Cup might be a possible sanction. Still can't see we've done anything wrong. Sakho was clearly injured with a back problem against West Brom on Jan 1st and not fit to travel to the African Cup of Nations with Senegal. Twenty four days later on January 25 he was only fit to be on the bench at Bristol City and apparently still unable to fly. The club have an independent medical opinion to back this up. So everything should be fine. But then we are the club that managed to mess up over Manny Omoynimni and Carlos Tevez…
