well worth a visit - check out the bottom of the page too.. http://eyeseedata.com/football-player-transfers/
Yeah that is interesting. I'm not giving you money for growing facial hair though, too many people wandering around looking like the village people.
Looks like distinct phases: Pre 1950 very little inter country transfers. 50-70 handful of transfers each year. 70-90 frequent transfers. Fairly steady. After 90 rapid exponential growth each year.
£2bn a year! We could have developed personal jet packs or a pill to make your knob twice as big (not that I need that....) if we'd have pumped that money into science and technology. Or a ciggie that is good for your cardio-respiratory system.
Bozz how often are you gonna update the Mo growth? I came across this earlier http://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/have-you-seen/kop-10-lfc-moustaches-11 P.S. Very interesting thread
P.S Just clicked the link. No time to read but the map looked very interesting. Fascinating to know where players transferred to from Equatorial Guinea during 2012/13.
Does someone want to provide a synopsis of what this is about as the thing in the link looks frightening. Is it related to the slave trade?
