Text | [quoting Byrne] Supposing Barkley would win his case. A precedent would be established which would mean that a player, after signing a contract with another club, thus breaking the reserve rule, could do just as he pleases and we would have to pay him, and we would be helpless so far as keeping up discipline in clubs is concerned. For Barkley to win would be the death blow to the greatest sport in the country. |
