Franz Beckenbauer is (allegedly) a crook

[crazyg]

I need indepth report from Der Spiegel!

The headline will read:

"Move on, nothing to see here."

South Africa were on course to win the hosting rights for the 2006 World Cup until the geriatric FIFA delegate from New Zealand reneged on his promised vote for South Africa (which the New Zealand FA had instructed him to do) at the last moment and abstained enabling Germany to win by one vote. He cited "unsustainable pressure" and death threats as reasons for abstaining. He also said he was offered bribes to vote for Germany.

Karl Heinz Rummenigge got a €250,000 fine for not paying tax on two Rolex watches

Uli Hoeness got a three year jail sentence for tax evasion of €28.5m

And now Beckenbauer has been found guilty.

I’m certain they were behind the Der Spiegel stories/leaks as well.

In your opinion, of course. (for legal reasons)

Based on what?

Because Der Spiegel is a German publication? Pretty thin connection to be certain of something.

Perhaps we need someone to dig deeper into dodgy affairs at a certain German club

Add to that the dodgy scratch and sniff German manager, many skeletons to come out of Der closet (Just ask Borris)

I'm certain most people are of the opinion that Munich are behind the Der Spiegel leaks

So you think there is zero chance of any collusion between the two?

I would object to most people being of that opinion, and irrespective of that, "most peoples" opinion doesn't equate to a fact.

I think its highly unlikely there is any collusion or anything of that ilk, but as you're probably aware - I can't say there is zero chance, in much the same way that anyone that wasn't involved in writing the articles can say with any certainty to the alternative.

Why ?

The German media is working for Bayern Munich right now, trying to destabilise Sané so Bayern can sign him.

Why would this be any different ?
