[QUOTE="C A Iversen, post: 244724"] "Who do you refer to when you say "Hopefully there will be a Russian billionaire who'll learn to hate the laughably hypocritical bullies from your country" in an earlier post then? Apologies if I've got the wrong end of the stick, but to me this seemed to be directed at the clubs. And I took 'hypocritical' as a direct quote, so an English teacher would be more liking to beat me round the head for not referencing properly. wink.gif ". I can explain this easily (and I can understand how one or two might've not taken my meaning). I was basically referring to the irishman, O'Brien himself. Coming over to this part of the world with his billions and saying that we are the bullies. "From your country", should really have referred to "rich people from the northern hemisphere". In any case I wasn't referring to the general public. Clubs I do think should have to pay a player development transfer fee, when a player is first bought from a country, thats the extent of it.
