The Question of Free Transfers.
But he would reorganise the whole wage and transfer system, and bagina by advocating a free transfer for every player who is not offered a re-engagement. This is ideal intheory, but very abeard in practice. Olubs are taking on players and paying big transfer fces, but sometimes the best of players may not fit in with the general scheme of things. It may be the fault of the player. Others do not like the place. The crowd may spoil a good player, and until he finds happier and more congenial surroundings he is nec- loss to the club. Why then should the club be compelled to transfer him free?
Again there may be questions of dieagreement or misconduct, and for questions quite apart from mert a club management may wisely decide not to re engage a player.
It is true that there are players who cost nothing and do not come up to the standard required by the olub.
Mr Simmons writes as if he did not know, or deliberately overlooked, the privileges which a player enjoys of having big transfer fee reviewed by independ- ent bodies of appeal. Before long I hope to give readers some atriking figures showing that transfer fees have not the serious ́effect on engagements which some. people imagino.
Transfers by Scale.
