backpackant Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Probably a change to this rule: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/apr/22/premierl...rc=rss&feed=football But I can't find anything about it changing. http://www.chelseablog.com/2006/09/01/do-players-have-a...r-of-their-contract/ Basically means players can buy out the remainder of their contract if there's two years to go. Meaning youth players on £200 a week can defect for £4800 compensation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serdar Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 These rules are bad. It was better in old days: - No Bosman rule, there was no free-signing. - Limited nationals. Only 3 foreigners in one squad. - People talked less about money and more about football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
