Dirty tricks dismay Croatia

Croatia FA president Vlatko Markovic has accused West Ham United of dirty tricks after the Premier League club were linked with Slaven Bilic.

The current Croatia boss and former Hammers star is one of the favourites to replace Alan Curbshley in the Upton Park hot-seat, but Markovic is dismayed by the timing of the story, just before his country's World Cup qualifier against England.

He said in the Sunday Express: "This is another dirty trick by the English. They obviously want to cause trouble for us before we play.

"It's typical of the sleaze in English football. For the story about West Ham wanting Bilic to come out now is very poor.

"We are very suspicious and unhappy as it is not the first time something like this has happened with England.

"There is no chance events at West Ham will damage us either this time."
