Remie Streete Confident Red Tape Won't Scupper Rangers Deal

[kanjo 26,330]

I was told the French FA blocked Ben Afra. I hope so anyway.

[Hamie 4,847]

It's ok remie, the egg isn't gonna play you anyway.

[WCPRANGERS1 2,997]

hasnt played for Newcastle has he?

[Jack The Flipper 5,936]

Was Fifa not ruling that french rules apply in the transfer not english, France counts u21 games England doesn't. Neither Scotland or England count them so transfer should be fine. Maybe I'm being overly optimistic about this?

Sounds interesting if that's the case it might go through.

[murzo 7,447]

Why is that rule in place anyway? Does it not go against any EU employment laws about restricting the right to work.

[WeirFleckNRothen 1,789]

I couldn't fucking believe it when I watched his press conference earlier.

He's got his "fingers crossed" that he won't be unable to play because with Ben Afra, that was the French FA and this is the Scottish FA.

If he's in-eligible, we will have sunk to a new low.

[Misteral 2,932]

They could release him and we could sign him then we could release him in the summer and he could re-sign for Newcastle.

[Gazza90 1]

Well Ben Arfa's move to Nice has been scuppered for the same reason I am sure....

Rafa one about retrieing because of that

Eh ?

[now then forever 298]

Really think he'll become a fans favourite and a really good player for us. Would actually cry if he can't play for us and we're stuck with Jig and McGregor for the rest of the season.

Also look at the lads twitter, he's already changed his profile and cover picture, or whatever they are called on twitter, to him wearing a rangers top, and him and two of the other lads wearing the rangers top on the other one. Also retweeting loads of Rangers stuff.

your right, it would be worse than administration and liquidation.

[murzo 7,447]

Or sell him back to Newcastle to pay Ashley back with his own money that he gave us for the transfer fee.

Don't see what difference that would make to the number of teams he's already played for this season

[jimgers 565]

I'm sure the rules can be bent or circumvented here by FIFA, hell they bend and ignore them when it suits for the filth.

[now then forever 298]

seems really daft u21 games counting, hopefully as the rules are different here everything will be ok. would be a shame for the lad too..fingers crossed. saying that knowing the sfa nothing would surprise me.

[now then forever 298]

it seems like streete said the problem was with the france fa's treatment from what i'm reading. the same thing happened with a Chelsea youngster, played u21's and played for burnley or someone like that, then was supposed to move to Bordeaux, but it couldn't go through. he then moved ok to reading.

[Blumhoilann 6,712]

SFA don't recognise U21 as full games.Steele is fine to play for us.

[Mr RFC 696]

Surely to fuck he's alright to play.

It's a pretty quick conversation.

Rangers: 'Hey knobheads we want to register this player is he okay to play'.

SFA: 'Lets just check the rule book shall we'

[BilliamofOrange 12]

SFA don't recognise U21 as full games.Steele is fine to play for us.

I don't think it matters what the sfa think, fifa rules state that players are only permitted to represent 2 cubs in 1 season with the only exception being where the beginning/end of seasons overlap.

If he plays we'll end up being hammered so I fully expect the sfa to give us the green light to play him.

[WeirFleckNRothen 1,789]

Eh ?

"Eh", what?

your right, it would be worse than administration and liquidation.

We've been there before, so that wouldn't be a "new low". Stop being pedantic.

the word "new" being the operative one - which you used. Stop being such a drama queen. New low ...pppffffttttt

If they give us the green light then hammer us the will be fucked themselves, Cant really see your point here.
