Apologies if this has been discussed already, but has there been any further development on Aluko or Jakupovic being granted international clearance for Saturday?
I guess the Aluko thing is down to Rangers and the SFA being awkward, but what's the issue with Jakupovic? This deal has been in progress for about 4 months now, what the hell takes so long?
Like I said before. Had it been something with money on the end of it,ie bribes, then Blatter would have been falling over himself to get it sorted, because it isnt I would reckon it will take ages.
I picked up somewhere that he is in dispute over the terms of his leaving his last club. He thinks he is owed money, but the club say he isn't and until he drops the claim they won't release his registration. Summat like that anyway.
Let's face it were not not so bothered about Jacko,were needing to to know whether Aluko can play on satdee ? And the silence is deafening ?
It's daft, but we must have known the situation when we signed him. The last lot that FIFA approved got their clearance on 20th July, and that was the 4 or 5 players who'd already left, one of them having done so in June so I'm assuming it's a monthly thing to deal with the disputed transfers.
Correct. But it been sorted out now and Jakupovic is now free to play. Aluko is part of the band awaiting FIFA approval. The issue has Been removed from the SFA now. I agree it is a joke and it should take Septic Bladder less than an hour to make a final ruling.
Drivel and tosh, why would they leave it aside and do it once a month? They should be working round the clock to er it sorted ASAP, it's better for all parties concerned. Dragging it out will achieve, ultimately, bugger all.
Told you OLM. Rangers are going to play hardball. All they will do is slow the deal down nothing else. FIFA will step in soon
They should have stepped in from the start. Should you be made redundant from your job you cant then be forced to sign a contract for another company and if you refuse they cant block you from working elsewhere Football is in a totally different planet to real life
