Cousin here till Summer


Recommended Posts

Not the result I expected or necessarily wanted a couple of weeks ago but since then he's got a goal and definitely has something to contribute so I think it's a good result for us in terms of squad strength with the upcoming games.

 

Fifa really need to be taken to task though. They should have said yes or no during the transfer window instead of this one month later nonsense. I hope Cousin's agents challenge this stupid rule as being a breach of freedom of trade or something.

I think FIFA may have procrastinated so long over this decision just to put teams/players off in the future. The rules are clear, and although there are various arguments on their merits, Cousin did not meet the criteria to make the transfer.

 

TBH I feel sorry for Cousin, he could have been playing more often if FIFA had come out straight away and said 'No'.

Agreed. Typical beurocracy (sp?) though. Bunch of corrupt mofo's!

One other argument that you could make is that if the teams and player involved in the transfer were higher profile then the transfer could have been ratified. Not that I'm cynical you know...
