Italian Owners??

[SouthEssexBlade]

The link below is in Italian, but the gist is that Aurelio De Laurentiis, Napoli President wants to buy an English club and then do something similar to the Udinese/Watford tie-up.


How would we feel if he decided we were then ones to buy? Getting a dozen loanees from Southern Italy with Reja as manager/head coach?

[HoodedClaw]

The whole Udinese/Watford thing won't happen again from next season, rule changes coming in are going to limit the number of players that can be loaned from a single club. They are looking at limiting it to just 1 player, but whether its that restrictive will be decided in the summer.

Likes to stick around places doesn't he?

Anyone staying at a club for more than 2 seasons in Italy gets plaudits like Fergie did here

If they managed it at Palermo they would be considered some kind of god.

Reja seems to have been everywhere but Palermo........coward!

How would we feel if he decided we were then ones to buy?

I'd be very nervous about it, but for McCabe it would be the final humiliation. From buying feeder clubs to becoming one....

There would a macabre joining of the full circle to it, I agree JD.

I would almost say an appropriate monument to his tenure!

 

[Toronto Blade]

He will be looking for a club near London.Even with the club's long history he won't be interested, McCabe will be asking too much for a League 1 club.

Would have been good if they had come in for a club like ours last year.

The FA have now decided to close the endless foreign loan players loophole starting next season. Apparently you will only be allowed 1 player from outside the UK on loan.

It didn't work in the end for Watford but would have been great had they got promoted.

I missed this at the time but if this report is right they will bring international loans in line with the current system ie you can name a maximum of 5 in any match day squad

In this report it says the FL is likely to win the fight to keep emergency loans. I'm ecstatic about this and looking forward to next season's Craig Beatties, Notworthys and Fortes.

Gennaro Gattuso has been appointed. He's got enough Beardy Beardness for our job.

 

[Mousey]

Gennaro Gattuso has been appointed.

Who's going to be appointed next week then?

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Who's going to be appointed next week then?

Well he only lasted 3 months at Sion. I wouldn't unpack if I was him!

 

[covblade]

Mario brothers or Joe Mollanari

That's that done then.

10 players on loan does take the piss a bit.

 

[Bladesman]

As expected most of them have now signed for free.

They are still under an embargo as well.
