  1. To reduce their debts and wage bill?
  2. Unless I have confused BST and CET. From the BBC: The windows for most of Europe's top leagues close on 31 August, including Germany (18:00 BST), Italy (23:00) and France, Spain and the Netherlands (all at midnight). The passing of deadlines only affects the purchasing of players, meaning English sides can still buy from clubs in other countries until the window shuts in England.
  3. I never realised that different countries have different deadlines and the one in Spain has already closed. The deadline applies to buying players so we can still buy from Spain, for example, but they cannot buy from us.
  4. Some nice stuff in the 'audience' though
  5. Didn't quite work out for him but I hope his experience with us helps him with his future career. I wish him all the best.
  6. We hold his registration and whilst we do he can't play for anyone else.
  7. I'm quite sure he was, but others may not have been aware of the regulations.
  8. If he's under 18 then the maximum length is three years.
  9. You might be surprised by how many players do not know the laws of the game.
  10. A reasonable estimate based on the end of last season as well as the start of this.
  11. Mellor was the year before me at Christ's and we overlapped for two years. There were plenty of us there who followed football teams. Ruggers at Twickers was strictly for the toffs.
  12. Tadic was onside anyway without him but I thought it was a bit of a laugh. As I'm sure you know, any defender who steps off the pitch to play an opponent offside is deemed to be standing on the goal line.
  13. We already have our two domestic loans.
  14. Some clubs prefer to have a higher turnover of non season-tickets because they tend to spend more on the merchandising.
  15. Born in Hampstead but brought up in Norfolk. Studied at City College, Norwich. Read English Literature at Queens', Cambridge. Graduated with a second ? Can we please get away from this stereotyping of sexual lifestyles?
  16. I guess that would be allowed, if everybody can reach agreement.
  17. It can be considered unsporting behaviour. I don't know if it's a mandatory card such as shirt-pulling or deliberate handball.
  18. That makes more sense. I thought I had seen a flight to Orly but by the time I checked later it had dropped off my list.
  19. And Gastón.
