Does Mark Hudson appear ?

It was under Jake Hudson's name that LG appeared for the reserves

And that from a Club that once proudly boasted (rightly I say) that it was amongst the few that didn't pay Agents and wouldn't do so!

That statement is 100% true, Until Paul Cook stated at a board meeting that if you don't pay agents fees you won't get decent players, It was then passed that in future agents fees would be paid, PC told me that himself and after that agents fees were paid.

Yes it seems he just had to pay a £500 + VAT registration fee.

Interestingly his player Liam Graham also doesn't appear on the FA list of deals involving agents

Liam Graham came on a Trial basis and was signed after a short period and no agent was involved

That's the official line Les, but an agent was claiming the credit for his signing and as far as I know he's still registered with the same agency. Yes the agent could be lying but it's hard to imagine a player without any links to this country never mind the him getting a trial without third party assistance

Sorry my mistake.

No doubt whatsoever then, remember he got a two year deal based on that "trial" with Saunders saying he was one to develop in the reserves! only an injury crisis nearly a year on brought him into the first team

In that case Les, under his new openness rules, Ashley should quickly be able to get Shorts to knock up the list of transactions and publish them.
We appear to have at least one agent representing CFC. Why has Ashley let that happen?

Was he even eligible to play when we signed him and for many months after?

No, hence the embarrassing fiasco of him playing under the injured Jake Hudson's name several times in the reserves and him not being allocated a squad number last season

Moondog,

This link is interesting:

http://www.thefa.com...blish-2017.ashx

The guy we have been monitoring who operates in this field claimed to have been involved with a player signing for another club in our division, yet when you look at the official documents there is no mention of him being involved in the transfer. Again, very odd.

An example of how unauthorised agents get in on a deal:

Roughly posts 71 to 81 in this thread make for an interesting read, (https://www.yellowfe...m-ascoli/page/4). It would appear that Graham's brother was a contributor.

CFC have a perfect opportunity to show transparency and set the trend this summer.

Starting from today, any press release issued covering the signing of a player, the sale of a player, the termination of a player's contract or the extension of a player's contract, the club also details what agents' fees they are liable for.

AC has told me he's very happy to report agents fees going forward but can't report wages or settlement fees

Given the reply from AC (via Moondog) above, I assume Agents fees will be published for the recent plethora of singings, as well as any fees paid for the players we've sold?

Agreed.

If AC really is to be a man of his word let's see who received what and when.

I suggest he starts with the deal that saw Anyon and Wiseman arrival via LPM.
