Shearergol 0 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Wolves have just signed Andy Keogh from Scunny. Not sure if that helps FCUM's point or not. Depends if people think Wolves are a big club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invicta_Toon 0 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 you can blame Bosman and the EU the window was a compromise deal between the FA and the EU to prevent players being able to move whenever they liked just like normal people FIFA. same to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMoog 0 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Personally I don't like the whole transfer window thing, but it's in place for a reason. I just wonder how they ever coped without it before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammynb 3161 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 The problem with buying scrap is you live your life looking at bargains when they are presented to you - the price is always better when someone else is looking to sell. So you don't actively going looking for scrap because once you have to ask someone if they're interested in selling then you no longer have the upper hand in the exchange. The transfer window isn't our problem, it's the scrap merchant looking for bargains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W 0 Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 in the long term I can see the whole transfer thing coming off the rails - no other business pays to get an employee the EU will eventually rule against it or the ECJ will have a Bosman type case and strike the whole sytem down - players will be contracted for a period and if they break that contract they, and the side they move to get sued when they move they have new contract with the new club but there will be no compensation for their previous employer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
