    It seems the huggers of trees wanted to sign Panagiotis Tachtsidis from Olympiacos. The deal wasn't completed in time for the transfer to go through in this window. Fortunately for the Red Dogs, the 2 clubs have one and the same owner, Evangelos Marinakis. Now, where there is a will, there is a way. Marinakis found that way. He cancelled the lad's Olympiacos contract which made him a free agent. That meant that our near neighbours could sign him immediately rather than having to wait until January..........

    You could say, shrewd move. You could also say it is downright cheating made possible by an accident of ownership.

    My opinion is that this move is definitely against the spirit of the game and should be looked at by FA/EFL.
    I agree MA. I’ve had enough of these seemingly dodgy, overweight, egocentric, foreign owners playing the dual ownership card.
    I mean...we’d never have done anything like that...just ask Jan Ludvik Hyman Binyamin Hoch...disgraceful.
