.... I'll laugh my bollocks off. I have a client/friend at Aston Villa who's a director who we've done work for over the past 2 years. I mentioned last season that he helped with tickets for the League Cup semi final etc. I was talking to him about moving some stuff to his holiday home in France yesterday and I could tell he couldn't wait to tell me summat funny. He knows I have a background in security work with a bit of surveillance etc hoyed in. Villa found the equivalent of a baby monitor in their dressing room for an away match this season. It was super-glued into a bank of sockets behind a plasma screen and 'tactics board'. They also suspected the tactics board, which was electronic, was connected to a network which would mean that whatever was put on the screen would be visible to anyone. They took photos of it and have reported the matter ........ sadly he wouldn't tell me the name of the club although I suspected he actually wants a rumour to gather pace so that it puts pressure on the FA. I looked at their away games and it's a choice between Chelsea, Liverpool & Stoke. So who's snide enough to do it and powerful enough, inside a basically corrupt club, to think they can get away with it? My money would be on Mourinho tbh and the owner has links to the KGB so it would be 2nd nature to him. I've had a quick scout round Google etc for photos of their dressing rooms but there's nowt conclusive, I just pray it's proved and that the guilty party is exposed, it would be hilarious watching the club & supporters squirming. (Mods, delete this if it's on dodgy ground, no idea tbh.)
****ing great thread, Especially if it's a team £200m starting line ups having to cheat. The shame Saying that a baby monitor is hardly Mission Impossible technology, it's probably Stoke
I couldn't imagine Liverpool & Chelski doing it so id say Stoke. But then again I couldn't imagine any team resorting to these tactics, so I am probably wrong.
Thing is it's easy to write off a baby monitor without much suspicion - a hi-tech video/audio surveillance kit on the other hand may be questioned... My money's on Chelsea
It's usually an 'we'll sack that useless cleaner' excuse with summat like that isn't it? The tactics screen, with the hdmi cable, can be explained away by claiming the manager can 'remotely' explain things during training days without having to join the coaches & players. Whatever the case it's just another example of why people are a little disillusioned with the game. I'd laugh, in the short term, if something was proved but it would be quite sad really.
If this is true it was 100% Brenda and his Band of Bindippers. They'll have even been stupid enough to get the ****ing baby monitors the wrong way round... "Ey Boshhhh I carn ere nottun, these fucckhen walkytalkeeees dey don't work doh do dee dey're broke" was what manager Paul Lambert heard when he walked into the away team dressing room, "It sounded like Steven Gerrard was hiding in the wall, until we spotted the baby monitor the wrong way round".
Industrial espionage is the 'norm' in big business nowadays - reckon all the big clubs are at it in one way or another
Haha, class this. Sneaky Russian self made multi billionaire breaking rules for his own self service? Whatever next?
Just me not surprised? I'm surprised at the tech mind. You can buy the miniature cameras already fitted into normal household items clocks, radios, mirrors etc. For just a few quid. And handheld detectors to check for them, for even less. Bloody hell man some of the weirdos on the net use miniature one in women's toilets!
To me it seems like you're friend is having you on. I mean what sort of premier league club would put a baby monitor in their dressing room? Especially with the technology today, Hahaha. And if you're friend wanted you to start rumours, wouldn't he have told you the side they played against? My money is on, you're friend is making it, or you are, simply because of the stupidity of the story.
You lose your money. Coming from one of the biggest liars this forum has ever known it's no surprise you think others are like you.
