Hopefully, someone can clear something up for me.
I notice that Peter Ried mentioned in a BBC interview (linked to on the main page) that he would be interested in signing players from the Thailand national team if he he didnt have to come up against the "inevitable work permit problems"
Then, I read that Southend have just recieved clearence for a couple of players http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/footbal ... 923971.stm (THat link will no doubt be rubbish but the story is on the BBC League 2 website!!!
My question is (apart from how do you do links) is how are the rules applied. I thought originginally you had to be a full international for a team if you were outside the EU regions? A morrocan (non international I assume) can sign for one club but we would face issues signing full internationals from Japan or Thailand.
Anyone?
