Toonpack 10556 Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Can't be right surely From BBC rumours The Premier League agreed to push back the transfer deadline by 10 minutes to ensure Ashley Cole's move from Arsenal to Chelsea was completed.

Sima 0 Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 It's okay, had we known we probably would have signed Lee Trundle or someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6703 Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 On the other hand some common sense does appear to be prevailing... Players who wave imaginary cards to get opponents booked or sent off will be booked, under new Uefa rules. (The Sun) Fucking hate the way some players do that...

Holden McGroin 7034 Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Hasnt that been a law for years? Action never seems to be taken though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 47572 Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 I think the FA have shown common sense in allowing them an extra 10 minutes, HOWEVER, I reckon if it had been two lesser teams and a less high profile transfer they would have played the jobsworth.

Give them 10 minutes, next time somebody says well you did that we need 15, then the next lot say 20 and sooner or later its a day and eventually you have no window...actually thats a good idea, go with it! But the point of deadlines is they are a deadline and the second you go over them you have to for everybody and theres no point in having one. On the issue of players being booked for waving imaginary cards, it sounds great but refs have always been able to book you for that and are either too thick, useless or gutless to do it when it should be soemthing they stamped out years ago.
