stlucifer Posted June 5 Report Posted June 5 (edited) New Scottish transfer system launched - but how does it work? - BBC Sport With clubs now able to enter into cooperation agreements with clubs outside there respective leagues I was wondering. I agree it's a solid idea to allow young players on the cusp of the first team to play against so called seasoned professions but, am I missing something? The club who loans out the young players in question keep the registration but what happens in cup competitions? Are those players barred against their parent club and, if so, does it mean a club can recall a player from a team they are playing and play the young player in question? ETA. What about if the youngster plays in a previous round against other opposition? Firstly. Can he? Secondly. If he can, does this mean he can't play for either side if the two clubs meet.

chalky1 Posted June 5 Report Posted June 5 I'd assume this would be agreed before the loan signing. Currently teams will ask the parent to allow the player to play in cup competitions. If we loan a bright prospect to a club and we can recall him. Why would you allow him to play in a cup competition if he has a chance to play 1st team football. Quote

That would mean sending a young guy out to experience playing against experience but potentially preventing him from possibly better experience just in case. Personally I think it would be more beneficial to allow the lads to play no matter the ramifications. I was just wondering if anyone knew if it's been officially thought through and what the outcome of that actually is. Quote

I agree, if sending a player out on loan you want him to get the best experience playing at the highest standard possible. No doubt as the season unfolds clubs will find ways to possible abuse the system, lol Quote
