Thinking of what's ongoing at alty and I believe Weymouth have had points deducted for something similar. Surely THE EASIEST ANSWER would be a: FOOTBALL CLUB PASSPORT: Which when a player registers with a club he hands it over to the club secretary who stamps it with the clubs badge/crest. This is then held by the club until he moves on, when, the secretary again stmps the passport and the player then moves on. The GOLDEN RULE being no passport no playing. Cheap and simple. But that's probably it's downfall if you're with me.   |

Well I'm pleased for Weymouth. Let's hope something can/will be done to avoid futere "thingy-ups".

Deducting the four points would have been pointless - even if blame had been attached to the Teflon ones! They finished 8 points clear anyway! Frankie, Frankie!  The passport idea is far far too simple and effective to be adopted mate. You should know that!  |

What a brilliant idea. No fewer than FOUR clubs in our league alone have been deducted points, or almost deducted points, this season alone. I've already had my rant on the subject and I believe it is someone else's turn. We should petition the FA |

Sorry DJ, wasn't meaning to steal your idea my owd.
If that's two sensible people had the idea, by FA/UEFA/FIFA standards it must be crap and forgotten forever.
Guess I'll have to go away and think of some sort of system that's ambiguous and open to all kinds of mis-interpretation so the fines and disruption can carry on.

oops! Well, good idea DJ (sorry for not saying before, I must have missed that somehow) I've got an idea too. Hey, we don't even need to play football any more! Let's just have the season based on how many administration errors a club makes. The club with the fewest c ock-ups wins the league. Simple. No need for expensive ventures like playing football, although it could still happen as a thing on the side, especially if profits are made on the gates! Well, we might as well do that if things carry on like this! |

If the Conference ever read this thread they would probably all explode in confusion at the logic of it all  |

What happens if the 'passport' is lost, stolen, forged, etc. - I'm sure I don't need to go on!
If clubs have to 'stamp' players in and out, it will allow them to hold players to ransom, by refusing to stamp their passports...
The age of paper is dead. They should just implant a microchip in every player's skull. Not only would it serve as an electronic passport, it'd also help track training regimes and provide a whole new batch of stats for Sky TV to dazzle us with. You never know, they might eventually fill the whole screen with scrolling numbers and text so that you don't need to see any of the football action! ;D
