As they seem to have started already, this should be an ongoing thread until August
Seny Dieng - Reims who are mid table in Ligue 1 reportedly interested
Conor Masterson - Gillingham, where he spent the 2nd half of the season; are confident of signing him, but Exeter are also interested | |

Does anyone know what the rules are for EU players these days coming and playing in the championship?
Brentford and Norwich both had success at bringing in European players by suspect that ship has now sailed.
We on the other hand were absolutely abysmal at signing decent players from abroad or was it that they were decent players but we just made them abysmal?? [Post edited 2 Jun 2023 11:37]

I don't pretend to understand much about it but t's now done on a points system, based on strength of leagues, strength of national teams and things like that. It's meant that some markets that had proved quite productive for EFL teams, like Poland and Denmark, are now much tougher. But it's also opened up markets elsewhere in the world that were previously difficult, particularly in Latin America. We've been scouting in Colombia, for instance.
Here's the official line...
Post Brexit, clubs will not be able to sign players freely from the EU. Players from EU countries who want to play in the Premier League or EFL will be required to gain a GBE, like all other overseas players without the right to work in the UK.
The GBE will operate a points-based system, where points are scored for senior and talented young players based on:
- Senior and youth international appearances
- Quality of the selling club, based on the league they are in, league position and progression in continental competition
- Club appearances, based on domestic league and continental competition minutes
Players accumulating the requisite amount of points will earn a GBE automatically, while players just below the threshold may be considered for a GBE by an Exceptions Panel.

Apparently Dykes refusing to sign a new contract, no surprise there | | | |

To be fair at least he's not messed the club around a la BOS.
We should be able to get a couple of million for him. | | | |

1.2 million people migrated to the UK last year so I find it astonishing that we can have any trouble signing a professional footballer to a league as well funded as ours
I suppose though the government interest in; shipping in cheap labour to drive down the wages of the working class or to prop up house prices etc etc arent helped by this so I suppose it is bizarrely difficult to get a professional footballer in now | | | |

Rumours? Fake news? I read on here before I think, that it was Newcastle who came in with the late improved offer for Eze? | | | |

I'm looking forward to the outrage on Twitter from those, who for the past 3 years, have absolutely slated him..... | |

Interesting this Colombian scouting. It was done before Ainsworths appointment so presumably any players signed will be the DOF and analyst’s pick rather than GA. | | | |

I think that was from Football League World which guarantees it's a load of guff. | | | |

Is that because you want to increase your chances of getting a game up front for us, Steve? 
I might have this wrong but with Lowe and Roberts only on loan and Martin on a short term contract, Dykes leaves us with one striker, one who has never scored for us, Armstrong.
That's not even toothless. | |

Apparently it's not scouting players but we've been talking to the cartels about selling wraps during match days. The thinking behind this is that if we are all as high as a kite we won't notice how poor the football is. | |

It's not exactly a profession with acute labour shortages, is it?
Given the GBE rules I was surprised Ken Paal qualified. | |

That 1.2 million aren't all moving here to cover acute labour shortages either
Maybe we should just game the system as well. Get the player we are scouting who doesn't have enough points to get his missus to sign up for a London uni and then he can come with her
No need to worry about "acute labour" shortages lol
If we want to extend the contract just get her to do a PHD | | | |

Bristol City in discussions about signing Rob Dickie according to Football insider site. | | | |
| Summer Transfer Rumours on 17:26 - Jun 2 with 4059 views | jtuck |
From that report on Dickie...
'He failed to score or assist for the side, but played a total of 3,211 minutes across the season and was a standout performer in a QPR defence that has largely struggled'.
Dickie as standout performer...yeah, standing out in all the wrong ways! | |

The QPR first XI used to have flair innuendo all over the pitch. Now we’ll just be left with the image of Dickie embedded in Bristols
… defence. | | | |
