Ok not exactly Brexit but I am still wondering what will happen over brexit in turns of footballers contracts. Presently players from EU member states are not considered to be overseas players due to EU employment regulations. After Brexit that will not be the case and will become overseas players. As will all know you are only allowed so many overseas players and even then they have to qualify by their countries national FIFA status. I think we are ok as we as I can't think of many EU players we have, I am guessing our players from Eire will be ok but even that is not a certainty as Eire is an EU state it may be that it would be considered unfair if they have access to the U.K. employment market and other nations do not. Interesting times.
