Even if Saints ultimately benefit from the new rule, it's still a ****e rule as it really ****s over the teams who have little or no Premier League potential. Imagine what we'd think of it if it had come in last year and in January, as a League 1 club, we'd lost Chamberlain for about £200k. Just a £14.8 million deficit then.
I'd be interested to know what we voted and would like to head Nicola's take on it. The blackmail aspect of the way it's been forced through is somewhat disgusting and it's just wrong. First we had the 'sell your own tv rights thing', then the no relegation from the Prem thing and now this one which has been made public and voted through in about 2 days. "For the benefit of the national team" - my big fat hairy arse.... this from the same organization that allowde Cesc Fabregas to be classed as 'Homegrown'. ****ing b o l l o x...
Permier League is evil.
