Mike Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 But if you pulled a trade, wouldn't you be able to sell a player you receive? Players wouldn't even have to be on the market. Just open to a move. Would the contracts carry over, or would they have to renegotiate terms? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 You f***ing people knew what sport I was talking about. What exactly do you mean by "you people"? I couldn't mean it like that, because there are no racial slurs for white people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 renegotiate. This isn't a dictatorship like the US sports systems, these are regular work contracts. You join a new job, you negotiate your contract at that new job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 oh and you can't just force a player to go to some city in the middle of nowhere against his will as well, likelihood of a player agreeing to goto a team, knowing that he's not wanted, is pretty slim.

Jack Flash Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Money is too important. The clubs would never agree that their players value matched exactly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Likelihood of two teams wanting an available player from one-another is slim, no? Doesn't stop FM always saying 'Oooh team X is looking for a left back'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Do it based on wages, sort of like the NBA. If a guy is making 150k, you can send a 150, or two 75's, etc. I wouldn't expect major teams to do it that often, but you would think it would happen all the time in the lower leagues.

Mike Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 The NFL lockout is a bad example. They're fighting on how to split a massive pie. The NBA lockout came about because the people responsible for running teams are fucking clueless and they pissed money away. The system works, man. It just needs to burn to the ground every couple decades. The way things are done in soccer will change a hell of a lot sooner than the American systems. Don't disagree with Americans in front of them! Ffs! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 The draft system is good for equality, but that's about it. The manner in which players are treated, thrown about from place-to-place, would just never happen in the UK, and most other civilized nations.

Exiled in Texas Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 The american system works because their leagues are the pinnacle of their sports (American Football, basketball, baseball, hockey etc) in terms of salaries. So players accept the work restraints because of the salary received. Soccer/Football is a true global game, so no one league can effectivly impose restrictive work practices without it effecting the players decisions to move elsewhere. Hence why we'll never see a salary cap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to close the league, no relegation. That would have a real negative effect on the league but maybe more teams would take more risks. Who knows! Thread maybe.

BrettNUFC Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Poor Wayne, hes so hard done to. Why doesn't he just come out with the truth instead of just moaning about the press making up stories.

Dave Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 http://www.teamtalk.com/newcastle-united/7034862/Swans-hopeful-of-Taylor-solution Meanwhile, Jenkins confirmed Magpies winger Wayne Routledge is among manager Brendan Rodgers' remaining targets, but that he is a series of men currently under consideration. He said: "Wayne Routledge is one of a number of options we are pursuing. Like always at this time of the year, we have got to go around looking at the options and seeing what deals can and can't be done. "It's just a matter of weighing all those things up, really, and seeing what deals can and can't be agreed and our manager will make the decisions as we go forward." Routledge, who spent the end of last season on loan at former club QPR, but could not agree a permanent deal at Loftus Road, is attracting interest from a series of potential buyers, including Nottingham Forest, and has also been linked with Cardiff and Leicester.
