Harte? - I know he's ROI but if he played X years < age 21 in the UK he'll count as home grown.pea Think its only Kebe, possibly Hunt and Manset...

cmonurz Don't know if this has come up at all, and not all that important - Sol Campbell retired today, and commented that this was in spite of two offers to play this season, one from a team 'just promoted to the Premier League' - possible we might have approached Sol?

Barry the bird boggler remember players like Sheppard, Obita and Hector are under 21 and we can carry any number of these younger players to supplement the squad)

Is it under 21 or 21 and under? Karl Sheppard is 21 now.

Barry the bird boggler Just for clarification, so we all know, the rules for Premier League squads I believe are:
Clubs register a squad of up to 25 players, which must include at least 8 'home-grown' players, at the end of each transfer window.
>>>>> Home-grown players do not have to be English; home-grown players are defined as those who "irrespective of nationality or age, have been affiliated to the FA or Welsh FA for a period of three seasons or 36 months prior to 21st birthday"
>>>>> Clubs can supplement the squad with any number of players under the age of 21.
>>>>> Changes can be made only during transfer windows, although in exceptional circumstances (eg goalkeeping injury crisis) moves could be allowed.
>>>>> Players loaned to Football League clubs cannot be replaced, but can regain their spot on return to parent club.
>>>>> Rules apply only to Premier League matches, not European, FA Cup or League Cup action.
Now, from the current squad (current ages alongside each player), I make about 20 players are definites for the 25 man squad:
1 Federici - 27
2 Karacan - 23
3 Pearce - 23
4 Tabb - 28
5 Leigertwood - 29
6 Le Fondre - 25
7 Hunt - 28
8 McAnuff - 30
9 McCarthy - 22
10 Kebe - 28
11 Gorkss - 30
12 Church - 23
13 Robson Kanu - 22
14 Harte - 34
15 Cummings - 23
16 Andersen - 23
17 Roberts - 34
18 McLeary - 25
19 Gunnarsson - 36
20 Mills - 22
I expect Antonio move go to Sheffield Wednesday which means we could sign another 5 players to bring the squad up to 25 (remember players like Sheppard, Obita and Hector are under 21 and we can carry any number of these younger players to supplement the squad)
Anyone aware of any changes to these rules since they were implemented...?

URZ_forever I would be surprised to see Church and Gunnarsson in the 25 man squad to be honest. I think Tabb and Mills may also be on the borderline of not making it in, I think they would be the sacrifices if we bring enough players in.

So what do you do with them if no one comes in for them and they're still under contract? You could loan out Churchy but who would want Brynnar? Rabson Rovers?
