This is interesting, I have often wondered how and why footballers are treated differently (cos they are) and what effect EU laws would have on footballers.
If you think Samson or Twardzik are anywhere near Ripley's level then I am at a loss.
Ripley isn't Ruddy or Randolph, but he's four times the keeper the other two clowns are.
If these guys (Thomas etc) aren't gonna get a gig here just now. I want to see them play, so a loan to a Championship Division 1 team would be ok for them in my eyes.
Let's try start a daft cup, a bit like the Anglo-Italian one they used to have.
Teams from both Irelands, Wales, Scotland Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland.
A big bastard cup thing.
