Harry "writes like a two year old" Redknapp will have to write an application for the job then?

Do you remember a lady called Imelda Marcos, had a voracious appetite for the high life and material possessions in particular buying shoes - thought the gravy train would never stop.So, so right.......the truth is this should all be based on the quality of leadership at the very top and I mean those who appointed this feral chancer. Yes, Sam does represent the lack of integrity and commonsense that should be a given at this level, and should he act indignantly at the suggestion that he's greedy in ways that most people can't begin to get their heads around then he'll further his now tainted profile. Those who exist in their bubble of corporate aloofness will never grasp how they're viewed by football fans. To many they represent the scum of the earth so far as the 'them' and 'us' culture that exists throughout society at large. You don't believe me? All you have to do is look at a once great footballer like Platini and wonder why his head was turned? Of course the answer is easy to conclude, but Platini and all the other greedy cunts seem resistant to the notion of enough is enough. Think about it, £3 million a year and yet Sam's greed antennae are as alert as ever at the first sign of further ways to line his pockets. Surely the FA have rules that prohibit this sort of thing? Or are they as amenable to this type of distasteful behaviour as they appear to be?

It did.
I think we were only involved in two deals that weren't loans during the 10 month investigation if we are excluding this summer activity - Alcock leaving to Doncaster Rovers undisclosed and Khan to Barnsley on a free. That said, I remember Adkins suggesting he was going to be able to strengthen in the January transfer window and then we bought no-one. When I say we bought no-one, of course we did - as Hammond's special extended loan with benefits was in January.remember mccabe saying about keeping a closer eyes on deals and ridiculas offers being made. Could be something in it, would they bother investigating a league one team though?
Why would players reject agents? The agents have made them rich.It's down to the players really to stop this crap. A poster above was absolutely correct that they are the most powerful men in the game, band together and reject agents full stop and they end it.

Football's historically been a cash business, arguably still is, indeed the vernacular surrounding players wages is still - per week, a throw back to an era when wages were paid in cash on a weekly basis - the notion of cash and its ready availability is ingrained into the game.How could I forget the hag shoe-collector? The darling of every money pit across Europe. She only possessed two feet but was compelled to own shoes as if she was anatomically challenged. Not unlike the now dead socialite Leona Helmsley who was so far removed from reality that to her the rest of us were just 'little people' who should pay to make her life bearable. These cunts exist, they're not imaginary creations...........maybe Sam will begin to feel a compulsion to buy girdles in order to suppress his ever widening belly, all due to those free lunches he's had to endure.

In most cases it's very much in a players' interests to have an agent.

Bungs, backhanders, brown envelopes at motorway service stations, as much a part of the game as the pukka pie.
Or someone who can read and string an intelligible sentence together...I'd agree with this, or at the very least someone who understands contracts.

There's a definite need for a regulatory framework to be introduced to govern the role of agents and the transfer of players - didn't FIFA abolish this in respect of agents, which leads nicely onto my point.....Agree, any business that is awash with money will act like a magnet to those possessed of the greed we've known about for decades. The thing is, if Sam is our current hate figure, who else is involved in this exhibition of greed? I'm not just talking about the current revelations, this will come and go, but there must be an ingrained culture of greedy fuckers who take from the game without ever giving back. And before anyone screams 'Agents' I'm inclined to look closer, to those who are employed within the game.

More than that is needed. The men tasked with arranging a deal on behalf of a club are generally very savvy negotiators (excluding SUFC's in recent years apparently) and are working in the interests of the club: to save money.
The majority of footballers are financially naive and unequipped to deal with these negotiations, especially younger players. It would be foolish not to hire an agent or representatives.
Glad you put that bit in, seems like we had Forrest Gump doing the deals for us!
Forrest Gump wouldn't have signed Hammond mate!
It would be typical Blades if we got involved in this. Losing who's shaping up to be our best manager since Warnock and having a few points deducted to prevent us from any chance of promotion.
Typical, typical Blades.
Trouble is who do you get in ? Southgate who has probably never farted outside a toilet ,but will be totally useless ,Steve Bruce proven greedy ,Eddie Howe still on SMA or go Foreign (noooo). Rather have a shady winner myself.
There are plenty of players that have never had an agent that have done plenty well enough for themselvesWhy would players reject agents? The agents have made them rich.
