Eh ? Well I'm trying to find an analogy where I work. Recommending a good translator to a translation company that supplies me. Tick. Works for us both. Taking cash or even a paid opportunity to speak at their conference as a "thanks". I'd be out the door. It's the culture (not the...

Scouting for agents ? Its the same thing. Taking payment from potential suppliers isn't it ? Maybe I'm mad. You are employed full time by an employer and you are talking about taking the odd grand or two off suppliers in the same industry. Not hospitality, but cash. Madness. With experience...

Er.. it's a not a law. It's a regulation if you want to part of UEFA or the FA. In actual fact the regulation has been deemed "legal". Not the other way round. Problem here of course - the rule was set by his employer in the first place...:) Whilst you may see no problem his bosses did. Bye...

Sorry have I gone bonkers or mis-read the story. It's not illegal but... You are talking a potential supplier of services to your employer. Nothing firmed up - but in the mean time can I have £55,000 to do a meet and greet for you ? Have I got this wrong ? There wouldn't be any discussions...

I read something today that sort of summed it up. Within the context of how football operates it probably seems quite normal. In my head it's quite simple. If you working fulltime for a company and are even thinking taking from money from a potential supplier (even within a different context) -...

The first thing probably needed is complete transparency regarding transfer fees and payments to agents, although you wouldn't extend that to wages. An extension to the current regs in place. But really, agents should be employed and paid by players. Clubs should NOT be paying agents. It's...

Website was very slow too. But to be honest they probably haven't got enough evidence either. Big Sam was different they got him on camera, everything else is hearsay. Football needs a simple change. Players pay the agents. Why on earth are managers involved ? Clubs are treating agents like...

I'd tread carefully too. So much of the media has a vested interest in the Premier League they'd be demolished id they got it wrong.

Hilarious. I'd imagine every single manager in the country will be invited to a meeting with a worried chairman tomorrow. It was always going to explode at some point. Just too much money floating around the game "off the pitch". As supporters we should be really really pissed off if true...
