Villafied Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 So... Now that you lot have relieved me of my european passport. How many of our current foreign players would safely satisfy the football visa requirements? Way too early to what it all means, but there must be quite a few nervous players out there. Robbie's gene pool has just shrunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post briny_ear Posted June 24, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2016 I imagine "impact on Aston Villa's squad" will be number one agenda item at Monday's cabinet discussion and in the subsequent negotiations with the EU. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sexbelowsound Posted June 24, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2016 Send them all back to where they came from. I can't believe they were allowed here in the first place to take jobs away from Jay Spearing and the like. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 So nothing major will happen before 2018 at the earliest? Jermaine Pennant can be safe then that England will be allowed to compete in the 2018? Euros 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 We can go back to the good old days where a title winning team contained top class players like Sherwood, Jeff Kenna, Stuart Ripley and Colin Hendry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Watershed moment. only the Sure-Thing players from Europe will come so the British market will inflate even more. End result Foriegn players = more PL money exported British players = more expensive Inflation will just suck up the increased amount from Sky/TV/Sponsor deals. Hence the stronger/fitter/richer will survive. We can all roll out our prayer mats to the fact that our new owner can/could possibly make us a major money player in the future. more important that the clearout continues because be prepared to see a lot of PL clubs like Stoke, Boro, Watford, Bournemouth and the like to end up with their versions of Gaby N'Zog hogging their undeserved wages, and pretenders like Lescott, Richards, Sinclair and Bacuna stealing a living and finally the PL full of teams with players of Guzan, Hutton, Richardson and Westwood simply not being good enough. As for the Ch L1 & 2, who knows financially, football standards will drop to an even playing field (not a bad thing) cut off from PL. The PL imploding will only be a matter of time. Hi Dr X Thanx for buying us, please spend your money wisely, we'll both benefit. Grasshopper VTID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Means the days of prem clubs picking up 16 year old European kids and then training them meaning they tick the home grown player box are over i wouldn't be surprised if they try and get the work permit rules reviewed in reality the elite clubs sign who the **** they like and present a somehow better argument for potential anyway so they'll carry on as normal, if city can sign the likes of iheanacho and unal at 16 from outside the EU and Chelsea do what they do nothing will change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1958Villan Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 We could say a club can have as many foreign nationals on their books as they like but, are only allowed 3 or 4 in a match day squad. The quality of foreign players would improve, simply because, to be honest, the number of foreign players has increased but, the quality has dropped overall. It's like the thinking, in general, is that a player must be better than home grown talent, simply because they are foreign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 think this means Bosman transfers should be null and void. Maybe we can use this as an excuse to rip up Micah Richards contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
