"He [the chairman] knows that if the manager is given the money, he will only buy players that are brought to the club through his agent and, in the process, he will pocket a wacking great windfall through cuts of the transfer fee that he’ll split with his agent."
I knew that Big Sam was notorious for this kind of corruption (let's call it what it is) but I didn't know Pulis was up to the same tricks. It might explain why he prefers domestic players at high transfer fees (going back to his time at Stoke as well).
To that I would add this article from Pat Murphy, which claims that Peace is not too desperate to sell Berahino at the moment, as he reckons he can get decent compo for him even if he leaves on a Bosman in 18 months.
