    I'm not surprised he's upset; Macauley Bonne is his prize asset...........which says a lot about the Oakmont Black Sports!

    one would assume part of his role is to advise Bonne on the use of social media. Perhaps he was providing him with a practical example, of how in only a few words make yourself and your business look a complete amateur affair run by a c**t. Job well done then. 

    Or could just be he really is an amateur and a c**t  ? 

    He must be reading this forum...... LOL mate think about it, consider, think about it again... then have a cup of tea. Then decide wether to post.

    This was on my facebook feed this morning. Easy to dislike an event like this for so many reasons.

    @PragueAddick , knowing your views on agents, I wondered if its something you might consider signing up for  ;)

    Not heard football intermediary before, maybe they want rid of the stigma around the word agent

    Perhaps also because "agent" suggests that you are working for one side whereas "intermediary" infers that you are representing neither - or both!

    Farnell is signing up as we speak, right up his alley that.

    Don't legitimate football agents have to be registered/licensed?  Clearly avoiding using the term 'agent' tells us all we need to know about this lot, doesn't it? 

    Football intermediary, noun. definition: entrepreneur specialising in making money from gullible targets for negligible practical input, usually involving mid to low ranking professional footballers and clubs. synonyms: parasite, bin-dipper, shyster, scavenger.
    usage example: "my daughter told me her boyfriend is a football intermediary, I told her he's not welcome in my house, and she'll be disinherited if she shacks up with him."

    I am afraid you've nailed it, except it doesn't cover all the third parties that they often deal with (i.e earn money from)

    I know a guy who does this is in the Prem. He is not an agent.
    Certain clubs get him to find out an asking price, and player personal terms informally - before they go down the licensed agent and formal approach route.

    His fee is not related to any eventual sale price, or even if the move actually happens. It's all off the record and informal - but he has contacts............. and that's what it's all about.
