Police have raided three clubs today and one of them is Newcastle! I wonder who the other two are? I think a lot of us know Freddy Shepard is a bit sussy like and you can only imagine big Sam will be happy to hear the news
Apparently it's not related to Lord Stevens report.

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."
A Northumbria Police spokesman said they were aware that "an operation" had been carried out by their London colleagues at St James' Park, the home of Newcastle United.
