    I'm surprised to hear Davey say that. If they didn't cost us anything that's a great bit of business. We thought it was fees in the region of 400K and 250K for them.

    You serious?

    Colace looks to be a quality player

    Even if there is interest and there are daft sell on clauses why would we let him go for free - surely we should at least discourage other clubs from persuing him - or am I missing something

    Where did Davey say that by the way

    I read it as meaning we got them on frees.

    Ah phew

    I think it was because I read it straight after a thread on about selling JCR and Muller and was still in selling mode
    Thanks

    I thought that part of the hold up on Colace transfer was that his old club thought that they were entitled to a transfer fee for him yet his agent, him and us thought that he was available on a free. Or could this 50% have been added later so as to get the deal through?

    As far as I recall his contract was up and there was no hold up from the club relating to any deal, the hold up related to their lethargy in releasing his international clearance forms.

    May be wrong though (dunno)

    No that I know of. Davey spoke on Radio Sheffield tonight that Leon and Colace were free transfers. He gave no indication either have sell on clauses. So to say we got Colace, Leon, Kozluk and Souza all for nothing and barely paid anything for Disco, JCR, Muller and Macken, I think we are doing well.

    How did we manage to get a work permit for Colace?

    and come to that Anderson Da Silva?

    I thought that non Europeans had to play x amount of games for their country to qualify?

    Sure I saw the other day that some club couldn't sign an African player because he'd only played 4 internationals so wasn't eligble for a permit!

    RE: How did we manage to get a work permit for Colace?

    Currently a non-EU player applying for the permit must have played for his country in at least 75% of its competitive 'A' team matches for which he was available for selection during the previous two years, and his country must have averaged at least 70th place in the official FIFA world rankings over the previous two years. If a player does not meet those criteria, the club wishing to sign him may appeal if they believe that he is a special talent and "able to contribute significantly to the development of the game at the top level in the UK. </p>

    Anderson didn't need to apply for a work permit when he moved to Barnsley, as Everton had already got around the problem by immediately loaning him out to Malaga where he acquired a Spanish passport (he had previously been on loan at Racing Santander as well while a Nacional player).</p>

    God knows how we swung the Colace one though, as we didn't even need to appeal to get one.</p>

    You have to apply for a new work permit every time you change employer. Anderson doesn't need a work permit though as he became a Spanish citizen while on loan at Malaga.
