This kind of thing I do rather despise as its pretending to do something that will help the england team get back on track and win the world cup (it won't) while actively not addressing the actual problems (lets say just how much the fa charge for those uefa coaching badges, fine for a professional club to foot the bill, grassroots not so much) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the threshold drops to 50, it'll exclude Japan, South Korea, Australia, South Africa, Paraguay, Morocco and I assume Norway and Turkey amongst many others (most of Africa). Hard to see the Premier League clubs voting for it. I'd imagine most of them are desperate to see the work permit laws relaxed so they can start hoovering up South American talent with a view to spitting 99% of them out at 21.

jdckelly Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 also this is worth noting A player will have to have been registered with his club from the age of 15 - down from 18 - to qualify as 'home-grown'. The minimum number of home-grown players in a club's first-team squad of 25 will increase from eight to 12, phased over four years from 2016. At least two home-grown players must also be 'club-trained' players - defined as any player, irrespective of nationality, that has been registered for three years at their club from the age of 15. and the agents of mediocre english players rejoiced as their clients just got a significant boost in transfer value Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacko Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Our work permit rules are quite strict in anycase, ridiculous rule. It's definitely ridiculous. Players'll just go to Belgium or another country first, where they hand out citizenship after a few years, and then they'll come to the Prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 It seems to me your FA is going the completely wrong way in order to address your national team's issues. Imposing squad slots for English players is going to help out the Steven Taylors of the world rather than the Aaronses. Good players will always succeed; reform should come at a lower level, imho.

TaylorJ_01 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I've never been bothered about having English players. If we can get cheaper, better players from abroad then so be it. It's down to our ridiculous TV deals and stupid foreign players rules that English player prices are so stupidly inflated - and why do we get big TV deals? People want to watch players like Aguero, Di Maria, Hazard, Toure, Mata, Van Persie etc etc. If every team could only use home-grown players England would be nowhere near the top. English football is f***ed, we rely on the foreigners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Instead of imposing stupid quotas that will inflate the price of domestic players, pump money into grassroots so we have more coaches and produce more good players. Stupidly backward way of doing it; look at Russia and Turkey who have similar quotas and has done nothing to increase the number of young players coming through.
