Episode 9: Are clubs rewarded fairly for developing future stars?
Brody Peart was a key player of Basingstoke Town. His parents are lifelong fans, he was a mascot at the age of two, his aunt is the club secretary, his grandfather is the kit man and his grandmother is on the club's board. At the age of 17, having progressed through Basingstoke's academy and junior teams, he joined Premier League club Brighton in July 2003 but Basingstoke didn't receive a penny for the transfer. The current rules prevent Brighton from paying any compensation, although strangely Basingstoke could receive a fee if Brody is ever transferred abroad during his career.In this episode, Graham Miller talks to Basingstoke Town manager Dan Brownlie and Oliver Ash, a co-owner of Maidstone United, who did receive compensation when Chris Smalling moved from Manchester United to Roma.Graham, Dan and Oliver discuss the way current transfer regulations affect clubs outside the Premier League and Football League.Follow Fair Game on X (although we still call it Twitter), Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok.
