Police raid three football clubs Police have raided three football clubs as part of an investigation into alleged corruption in football. Newcastle United is believed to be one of the clubs raided but the other clubs involved have yet to be named. The operation is not connected to Lord Stevens' ongoing Quest inquiry into the Premiership and was "totally independent", police said. Search warrants were executed on the club premises and two homes between 0730 and 0900 BST. A police spokesman said: "We can confirm that search warrants were served at three football clubs and the homes of two individuals in connection with corruption in football and its impact on owners and shareholders."

Yus, I think so..
A spokesperson for Rangers FC said: "Rangers football club was asked to co-operate with a City of London police investigation and have done so, extending every co-operation to police.
"We have been requested by police not to comment further while the investigation is on-going."

Apparantly, Portsmouth and Newcastle are also under investigation by the Inland Revenue for tax evasion. - they've both been claiming for Silver Polish for the past 30 years.
