IIRC it only applies if the player signs whilst still under contract, and used to prevent clubs "buying" players via foreign associated clubs as a loophole for loaning (the loaning component has finer detail - something like 1 or 2 transfer periods to prevent rorting) As for MacLaren, (a.) it is a pathway, and (b.) allows him some honestly since anytime he misses / loses with us he knows that He's not unlucky under whatever manager he gets Edited April 21, 2017 by mattyh001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC when it was rumoured that Brattan would sign for Manchester City and amid speculation that he would then play for us, he was quoted as saying that he wouldn't play in the A-League against Brisbane.

haz Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 Alex Cisak? His team Leyton Orient are confirmed relegated to non-league football (and will probably fold unfortunately). Wouldn't be the worst goalkeeper line up in the A-League with Bouzanis and Cisak fighting for a spot, particularly if Sorenson stays with us as a GK coach.

Dylan Posted April 23, 2017 Report Share Posted April 23, 2017 Strong hint that Sorensen won't be playing next season. Really hope he stays as a keeping coach. Would be a huge upgrade on Joey.

Certainly that gives the impression he's retiring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
