So they steal young players from EFL clubs at a knock down value rigged by EPL clubs, then sell them on at inflated value in collusion with each other? What a racket and close to being fraudulent.
I posted on Facebook yesterday to suggest the extension to early bird is to allow time for transfer business to happen. The man himself liked the post.
Could be an indication that he is part of that equation.
As long as the option to move is left open during the season I can see a gradual drift across, particularly when sitting in singer’s corner is strongly enforced.
It made me think of the Rowan Atkinson sketch where a red light bulb flashes in front of his face to let him know the phone is ringing, but he can’t hear the person at the other end because he’s deaf!
Basing our transfer window activity on the sale of a player owned by a 3rd party is seriously flawed in the first place. Hopefully that isn’t the case.
