A report coming from a South Yorkshire based newspaper, The Star has reported today that the Tevez escapade may rumble on (at least as far as we know) until August.

The newspaper has suggested today that:

the Football Association will not force Sheffield United and West Ham to reveal the outcome of their latest arbitration before domestic competition resumes in August.

They managed to speak to somebody from the FA regarding the Tevez court case and they had this to say:

This is a private arbitration between two parties at which the FA has no involvement

It would be up to the parties to decide as and when they wanted to announce any outcome.

Obviously meaning that unless we want to release to the waiting world that Sheff Utd have successfully wasted a few months of their (and our) year taking this no-brainer to court as soon as we find out, we the fans may not know the outcome until August when the season starts. If then.

We may never actually know.

It will be like signing Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano on an “undisclosed fee” all over again…we will never really find out what actually happened.

I guess we will know promtish if we lost though when there is a mass exodus of players from Upton Park because we can no longer afford them! But that won’t happen.

Will it?
