Football agents "up in arms"

In the Mailonline it is reported that football agents are up on arms about FIFA and deregulating the supervision of football agents.  The the Mailinonline, it reports that:

"Football agents are threatening to injunct the FA from introducing new FIFA regulations in April, following world football’s ruling body washing their hands of controlling the game’s middlemen.

The Association of Football Agents met on Friday and will take legal action against the fresh set of rules governing their conduct. That is if their complaint to the European Commission and a couple of planned meetings in Germany fail to resolve the turmoil.

Mel Stein, chairman of the AFA that represents almost all the UK’s agents, said: ‘We will have no option. It’s a total disgrace that FIFA are passing the buck to national associations having recommended an unworkable code. And it will be the Wild West out there, with anyone able to act as agents.’"
