newspaper on Friday asking Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup to attend court in a dispute over an unpaid tax bill. The advertisement serves notice to Laudrup of a court date in Amsterdam on August 29 where the club are seeking to recover money from their former player. The legal notice in the Het Parool newspaper says Laudrup has no known address in the Netherlands.

It follows a long standing investigation into the transfers of Laudrup and the Georgian striker Shota Arveladze to Ajax in 1997 and allegations of irregular payments to the pair. Ajax agreed a settlement in 2005, including a 500,000 euro fine, with the public prosecutor to avoid tax evasion charges and paid around 5.8 million euros to the Dutch tax authority, a sum later reduced on appeal last year. Ajax has been attempting to get money back from the two players. Two years ago they made a bid to seize Arveladze's assets in the Netherlands. Laudrup was not immediately available to comment.

No habla What a terrible thread to put up. A Swans fan !! Are you sure ? If an opposition fan put this up surely it would be considered to be a wum and either locked or deleted.....
WHY because you dont like what it says get over yourself ffs its topical. if it was cardiff you would be the first one stirring the ****.
I wish they had some bloody limitations on this board Btw, I don't like it because its the worst thread I've ever seen on this board. Worse than any wum from any fan from any club even QPR. Don't tell me what I would do if it was about Cardiff because you know nothing about me so keep your opinions to yourself
It's one for discussion in my opinion, we may not like it but this involves our manager. I still can't see something like this going anywhere it looks more speculative than anything. Otherwise why has it taken all these years to sort out?
It is clearly designed for confrontation that's what's wrong with it. If a Cardiff fan had put this up it would be classed as a wum which it clearly is. No place for this on here this thread is pathetic
Its been on going for years and ajax have only paid over £5 million in fines, they have been trying to get laudrup for a while but he has no assets in the Netherlands to seize....He allegedly took illegal payments...naughty boy..
your view but at least i talk football and keep the board football, you talk rubbish like getting pissed if anything is pathetic look no further than yourself..
Who cares ? Don't you get it ? 2005 my foot, dragging up a story from 8 years ago to run our manager down. Another new low for the board, the worst poster on here
what part dont you understand that its been on going and the only part thats not concluded is the part laudrup owes...Jesus wake up ffs...get some coffee down your neck as all this beer has destroyed your brain cells...
What part of who cares don't you understand ? This has no relevance to the team I support and will not effect my team in any shape of form end of Had you done a thread about us trying to sign an Ajax player now that would have been different
Come on guys, stop arguing about whether the thread should have been put up or not, its here, our manager is Laudrup, this is about him, its relevant and open to discussion, like it is on planetswans. I suggest that if you don't like the thread dilli its to ignore it. This is being widely reported across many websites including the fail.
Yawn !!! Someone else that knows nothing about me and makes wrong assumptions. Is there some sort of book that says Dai is always right and that he can post whatever he wants whenever he wants and no one can ever question him or his motives ? I couldn't give a monkeys about the PC brigade on this board. In fact I have more respect for Dai at least with him what you see is what you get and he doesn't resort to underhanded and slimy little tactics like some do on this board. Don't worry Dai these will be my last words on this thread I will leave your acolytes to it and won't visit it again either
Ofcourse it's a relevant post! And a really old story - dates back to the late 90's. It goes through the media every second summer in Denmark. Laudrup's never going to pay them... What more to it is that Ajax partially must have given up ever getting the money. This time they put an advert in dutch newspaper De Telegraaph... Haven't seen the actual article - but doing a thing like that - what do they expect? BTW. I Thought there was no censorship here. Hope I can post negative posts on Swansea here too. If I found out there was Corruption on the Swansea board; should I shut up about it here? NOT. Or if a certain ball-boy DID act unsportsmanly, I shouldn't write it here? Nah...
