There are but these were all by 21 I believe and it seems to me that scouting is probably alot more comprehensive these days than it used to be, so the chance of someone not being spotted by 27 it's gotta be very rare indeed.

Responded before your edit, I haven't criticised him at all, he is clearly a great player at his level with a great scoring record. But we saw in January how the club was now trying to make signings, it's all about signing the desperate or struggling or injury prone or incredibly cheap players...

I know that I was checking were were talking about the same player as I certainly don't know where the majority of our defenders signed from over my lifetime so you could have perhaps been talking about a situation that was a bit closer to this one, but you weren't sorry.

Stuart Pearce? there is a massive difference being a top player in the conference and making a big signing at age 21, than making a big signing at age 27 from level 8.

he signed for crystal palace at age 21. He was 27/28 when he signed for Arsenal. So yeah you were nearly right ;-)

Jamie Vardy was snapped up though to Halifax town, then he was snapped up to Fleetwood Town, then he was snapped up by leicester, this situation is more like him going straight from steelwood park series straight to leicester without any other teams in between thinking he was worth a punt. We...

He scores ALOT but that is a seriously low level of football. Hard to see how he can do well in this league when not even a conference team has come in for him by the age of 27

I doubt anyone said that, but we survived by the skin of our teeth, we survived because the punishment was -ten rather than the standard -fifteen, the people who said we were going to struggle were right, those who said when injuries and suspensions set in in the winter we would really struggle...

huh? missing those 3 is why I described the team as significantly worse. Are you saying because we were so poor losing 3 of our better players wouldn't have hurt us? we'd have just got even fewer points and likely been relegated. We'll never know of course but with a worse goalkeeper in the...

not a million miles away (though still significantly worse) from the team whose last 20 games form puts them adrift at the bottom of the table and those entire second half of the seasons form puts them deep in the relegation zone.

Yes there is a rule about the ranking of the national team, they need to be top 70 ranking AND have played 75% of games for the national team in the last 2 years. You are right though there certainly are players who don't meet these requirements that get a work permit, normally on appeal. The...

anytime the football league need to have a backbone they don't, any time the football league can let sisu off they will. seems straightforward to me.

work permit is 75% of first team games for the national team in the last 2 years not including friendlies, While it looks like he was an important player for the national team that was 8-10 years ago and while he is in the provisional 32 man squad for the world cup I don't think he has played...

doesnt pass work permit rules does he?

This is the reason Wilson would be foolish to stay imo. The agent hasn't been foolish he wanted to leave, he had a very short period left on his contract, people were interested and we didn't sell, accepting a contract just means a significant drop in money for both the agent and his client...

Our Grass is a dieing, brown, patchy, lumpy, holey mess with poisonous weeds growing all through it, the grass is greener everywhere else.

20% tickets sold are disabled, lets be generous and say the numbers seem unlikly

76 disabled tickets. something fishy about that, they realise right that thinking its a good idea to go to sixfields doesn't mean they are disabled?

I know fuck all about football but one things for sure if I were making the decisions for the football club we'd be in a much much better place than we are now.

that isnt very far away from what happened though is it? playing in northampton and selling in Jan. especially as havn't we heard sisu say that the council threatened walsall and thats the reason we arn't there? I'm sure something like that came out at the recent court case.
