The Tevez/Mascherano saga

This isn't the FA, but the Premier League who have charged West Ham United with improper dealings relating to the signing of Tevez and Mascherano last summer. If they're found guilty (of failing to disclose the third-party ownership of the players, and not acting in good faith over the matter) they will be fined and/or docked points. West Ham are fighting the charge.

I'm not going to prejudge this one. The one thing that strikes me is that the EPL has moved with the kind of pace we'd normally associate with the FA - it's fully six months since the pair signed for the Hammers and one of them has since moved on.
