Jesus 🥴 Doesn't matter in the slightest when I found out about it or how well known the rule is - the fact is that its a term of the contract that both players and clubs agreed to when they registered with FIFA. They can't just defy it because it doesn't suit them any more. FIFA might grant exceptions in this case, we don't know yet. Do you say the same about the 2 club rule - where a player is only allowed to play for two clubs in any season? Do you say the same about the transfer window itself where a team can't buy, register and play a new player because the registration window is closed? You can't just go "Ah, **** it, I don't think these rules are legally binding so I'm not going to follow them any more..."!! Oh, and FYI, the terms and conditions of the players' and clubs' contracts with FIFA, and agreement to their rules of which this is one, ARE legally binding.

I believe the two club rule is also restriction of trade, as are transfer windows probably. I didn’t say you can go against them though, just that if someone like Bosman decided to take them to court it’s most likely to be scrapped. Football contracts aren’t really worth the paper they’re written on are they, how many managers, clubs and players break them or tear them up with no legal recourse?

Hearts have offered training facilities to English defender Joe Wright after pulling out of a deal to sign him last summer. The former Doncaster Rovers centre-back agreed terms with the Jambos last May as his contract came to an end, but then suffered serious knee and ankle injuries on the final day of the season. The move collapsed and the 26-year-old has been a free agent for the past eight months as he went through his recovery. The Gorgie club have now resurrected their interest and have invited him up to Edinburgh to train with them, and try to prove his fitness, reports the Edinburgh Evening News. However, Rovers are still attempting to tie Wright to a new contract having assisted with his rehabilitation. A contract was offered last season, but no agreement was reached.

If his options were to stay at St Mirren on loan, or go to Hearts or Aberdeen on loan, he'd surely much prefer the prospect of European football at Hearts, than fighting for a top 6 place at the other two clubs.

Kiwidoug Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I imagine Neilson will be looking closely at how Hunbo and RCC perform against us. Have read somewhere though that RRC has been attracting interest from English clubs who may well have more financial muscle. All speculation though.

JimmyCant Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 DR has us tracking two new (un-named) centre backs. Obviously we’ve already decided Sibbick can’t fill Souttars boots. Id say we’ll switch Kingsley to first choice left back with Halkett and 2 new CB’s fighting it out for 2 places. Personally I’d make Halkett captain next season.

Bazzas right boot Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I'd take Mikey Johnson. I think there is a real player there. He's never going to make it at Celtic now and I think if he ends up at Aberdeen or hibs we'll regret it. Him, RCC and Mckay would be great options for us. I think we could kick start his career like we have for Mckay, he's a good technical player, but also a bit younger and more of a goal threat than Mckay. Maybe he's too celtic for us tho, that seems to be a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Throw in right backs of Atkinson and Smith, left backs of Kingsley and Halliday (unless we get another left back) with Craig Gordon in goals (and I suspect another keeper with Ross Stewart) and the defence is sorted.
