say that when you get hit with an unjust £35m bill for it, although you went down so maybe no one will care
From the Guardian "Sandro was properly registered with the Premier League and so there is no case for QPR being retrospectively punished for fielding an ineligible player. Sandro made 17 league appearances last season, scoring one goal." It appears (according to that newspaper), he had a work permit, but his residency permit run out.But that in turn actually invalidates his work permit.... It is the players responsibility to take care of that, but it is often the club that pushes it through. It is amateurish, to say the least....and will knock on to his contract, which may be null and void, which may be a good or bad thing for us (he is suppose to be on £50,000 a week (I thought we had stopped that)...and could result in a HO ban from "sponsoring" non-EU players. Is that a big issue at the current time??
Cheers Beth, that's reassuring to read. Also you are indeed right about the non EU players, we will just have to wait before that cheeky little bid for Lionel Messi
Yes indeed, this sort of thing could only happen at our club - I just hope we haven't flushed £10 million down the toilet with the only available option to sell him on the cheap to a foreign club. Heads should be rolling for this - perhaps Phil Baird's already has?
Rearrange the words into a well known phrase which sums the running of QPR in a nutshell... organise brewery a couldn't in a piss-up they...
Love that,top stuff It would be good to get Olly back to be in charge of the QPR media team so we could hear his quotes again!
Perhaps we need to start a program of vetting to make sure all the players have paid their TV licences? Who's going to argue against us and what's their claim - that we got an unfair advantage on the pitch??? Still I'd take a fine per full game he played right now. Start rummaging down the back of the sofa.
IF we are not allowed to sign non-euro players, how would that affect Ale Faurlin signing a new contract? Maybe that would be permitted as he already has a residency & work permit? Or maybe he holds a Euro passport?
If it is Sandro's ultimate responsibility to gain a residency permit, then surely we would be within our rights to start legal proceedings for any fines, loss of transfer fees etc?
