Unan Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Last week there was a report in the Times and the Independent that for 8 months between June 2012 and Feb 2013, i.e. two transfer windows Liverpool accessed Manchester City's scouting record. City called in IT security and the papers report it related to ex-employees who were recruited by Liverpool FC. In that period Liverpool FC bought players such as Coutinho. You wonder also whether this is the tip of the iceberg. Did Liverpool FC do the same with other clubs? This warrants very serious investigation. According to the press reports, Liverpool paid City £1m in compensation, but surely now that the new has broken, the Premier League and or FIFA have to look at this. It could have affected any number of clubs. Did it materially affect transfer activity? Independent story (The original news was broken by the Times but it's behind a pay-wall.)

Robbored Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 You seemed surprised that dodgy behaviour goes on in the PL, including the Champions League winners and Premiership Champions........... No doubt it goes on all the time but Joe public rarely get to read or hear about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Wonder what will attract the bigger media (led?) outrage- this or Spygate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 I remember back in the days when hacking in football related to a challenge of a more industrial nature. Games gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must have hacked our scouting network too to make Ryan Kent look like a worthwhile prospect... I jest, as I’ve always defended Kent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious investigation? Former employee logs into his old employers system to get information? Unless Edwards worked at every club in world football then I don't think the fella is going to be privvy to that information... Let's be honest, he was probably accessing his own hard work too.
