No idea what the rules are on such matters, but why the hell not make an agreement like that? It’s business. It’s negotiation. A deal was struck that both were happy with. It’s not exactly the sort of thing to be causing ripples around the rest of the Premier League. Previous Message
Sounds like the reason Snodgrass didn't play against West Ham tonight was because West Brom wanted him to play against Wolves, and agreed with West Ham that if they would sell him to them last week, he wouldn't be played against them.
When asked why he wasn't playing tonight instead of saying "he's rested" or "slight groin strain" or anything else that would be impossible to disprove, Allardyce has admitted the agreement, and the PL are now investigating the deal!
What a moron.
p.s. It's actually very dodgy and shouldn't happen. But we did it with Tim Howard so can't complain.
