What a farce this situation is. FIFA really do suck. FIFA has no control over where or who a player trains with. The player and his club decide where he trains. I suspect it is LCFC who have told Silva to train on his own.

There is more at stake here than a player losing a week or twos training. Do you really think FIFA can tell a club or player( not under disciplinary sanctions) when or where that player can train?
weller54 Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 Only our beloved LCFC could make a Cock up of this magnitude!!!... It really is unbelievable!

mozartfox Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 Have the Club made anymore statements on this mess?
katieakita Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 If he is not allowed to train with us there most be a reason behind this from the club and it should strengthen our case for an appeal. There are plenty of angles on this just one could be the apparent penalty clause handed to the club. A penalty of £80,000 a week for 19 or so weeks for being 14 seconds late and a punishment handed to a player who has done nothing wrong happy for anyone to explain how that is fair and reasonable and for anyone going to say rules are rules and we missed a time deadline (which is open to debate) yesterdays game had a minimum of 4 minutes of time to be added on to the 2nd half though commentators suggested that was a good couple of minutes short Injury to James & Moses, goals and substitutions including Moses leaving the pitch slower than GTF sprinting indicate that there was a time keeping error also if you care to look the ref finishes the game just before the 4 minutes is up.

HankMarvin Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 Technology has moved on a lot since 97, surely with the money we have this could be possible?
whitwickfox Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 Think the most alarming thing for me is a football governing body fifa has allowed a situation for a player not allowed to play there for denying him his sole right to work,, has to be against the law.. human rights and all that.

The article made it sound as though it's because he doesn't have international clearance which implies he'll be training on his own until Jan. If that's true it's a crying shame for him and would seem like a punishment for doing nothing wrong. The biggest victim is the player. We do need him but we also have other midfielders. He has a job that he can't perform through no fault of his own. I hope once the appeal is over he can train with the team, preferably being eligible to play as well.
FoxInTheBirstallBox Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 Just met Silva in town, what a dream boat He's pretty small though
dedlock Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 It's the player who I feel sorry for The game is about the players and how they work together as a team. FIFA have responsibilities for administering and ensuring teams abide by their rules. Common sense is required in determining any issues that arise. In this instance the governing body appears to have adopted an inflexible and bureaucratic stance. While LCFC are denied use of the player he is prevented from pursuing his profession. The few seconds is a trivial breach of the regulations,someone in Zurich should consider the impact on the player and act sensibly and fairly. If it is made plain that discretion has been applied on this occasion no precedent need be created.

st albans fox Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 Suspect the Portuguese FA are going to get a bit miffed hat he won't be fit for their remaining qualifiers and possible play off - whilst he isn't first choice, he is experienced first cover

It's very frustrating for us of course but understandable why FIFA have to implement this by the letter of the law. They can't make exceptions for one club and then not for another, that would make a mockery of FIFA and be very dangerous in the long run. We missed the deadline so we have to face all the consequences associated with that, however annoying they are.

If Portugal qualify for the World Cup it's a big season for him as well. He'll have half a season to bed in and get used to the Premier League. I think Portugal would take him regardless of form but it could cost him his place in the side, especially if a lack of match practice hampers his game during international games between now and Jan.

I get the not being eligible to play but not being able to train as well could actually be a punishment with consequences that reach beyond January.
