Pleased for QPR, they earned their season in the sun.
These rules regarding 3rd party ownership are a nonsense and have already been by-passed in South America. The rules state that a player must be ownwed by a club. So all the 3rd party owner has to do is start a club.
Venture capitalists and companies including supermarkets are now starting up youth clubs and buying up talented kids. They develop them and then sell them on. Hopefully for big fees in Europe.
Some of these clubs don't play in proper leagues and are set up simply to by-pass the regulations asnd make money.
If I'm not mistaken, the rags have someone on their books from a set up like this. can't remember who.
