    According to The Times this morning, the following European citizens would no longer have automatic right to play for us. If we left the EU and wanted them to play for us we would have to appeal. This would affect
    Krul
    Anita
    de Jong
    Gouffran
    Obertan
    Perez
    Haidara
    Riviere
    Marveaux

    Could lead to problems..

    Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Switzerland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland don't struggle giving work permits to overseas contractors so I imagine the UK will have no problem following suit.

    Out of that list there's only Perez I would retain so it may help Mike end some contracts early due to the legal principle of frustration.

    Be glad to see the back of most of these. Just think what it might do to the top sides like Mn U, Man C,Arsenal etc.

    I'm still undecided as to who I trust most (or least) to run things......the British or the Europeans.

    Lets face it, they've all got a fairly good record of cocking things up.

    At least if we are out an things cock up then the blame falls squarely on our politicians and they can (hopefully) be replaced at the next election. If we are in Europe it won't matter who comes in at an election as they would have minimal input anyway
