Title: Agent Spending Post by: Saxondale on Monday, November 30, 2015, 20:12:27 I have no idea what it all means. 60k from us probably into the back pockets of agents friendly to the people paying it out. Or maybe Im a little cynical.

That's mad.
Title: Re: Agent Spending Post by: Sam Morshead on Monday, November 30, 2015, 20:22:41 Wigan spent damn near our annual wage budget on agents fees. That's mad. I'd suggest they spent more than Town's annual budget (a fair bit more), though this included nine months in the ChampionshipTitle: Re: Agent Spending Post by: Jamiesfuturewife on Monday, November 30, 2015, 21:09:12 What a contrast across the same league??! From nothing to hundreds of thousands?!
Title: Re: Agent Spending Post by: Summerof69 on Monday, November 30, 2015, 21:20:47 All in all £160m was spent on Agent's fees in all 4 divisions...Why? Agents represent the player, so the only people who should pay them, is the player himself.

Agents represent the player, so the only people who should pay them, is the player himself. Not true, a lot of clubs will use an agent now, generally to negotiate with the player's agent. I think one agent got in quite a bit of trouble for acting for both parties in a transaction Title: Re: Agent Spending Post by: Oaksey Moonraker on Monday, November 30, 2015, 22:42:01 Our figures are coming down. £458k in 2012, £128k in 2013 and £90k last season. Our friends in Bristol did £231k last season, Preston £195k and Franchise £672k. Another expensive year for Sheffield Utd £255k and didn't get promoted, that's a lot of brown paper bags if the family tradition was maintained.
Title: Re: Agent Spending Post by: suttonred on Monday, November 30, 2015, 23:05:15 You mention that, but the brown bags don't show up in the books..
