Sheffield United lose appeal
LONDON, July 3: Sheffield United's appeal against a Premier League decision which they believe led to their relegation was dismissed by an arbitration panel on Tuesday.
Sheffield United had challenged the decision of an independent Premier League commission to fine West Ham United, rather than dock them points, for breaking rules when they signed Argentine pair Javier Mascherano and Carlos Tevez last August.
The three-man arbitration panel's decision to back the Premier League means Sheffield United will start next season on Aug 11 against Colchester United in the second division.—Reuters
