[bbedford]

Perone IS on the list of 25 - don't know which list some of you are reading.

Think this squad shows how much influence the board had when Tango and Cash were there by the players omitted.

25 man squad rules

2)Each 25-man squad must include at least eight 'home-grown' players.

3)The 'home-grown' players do not have to be English. According to the Premier League: "A home grown player is defined as one who, irrespective of his nationality or age, has been registered with any club affiliated to the Football Association or the Welsh Football Association for a period, continuous or not, of three entire seasons or 36 months prior to his 21st birthday (or the end of the season during which he turns 21)." In practice this means that Cesc Fabregas, who joined Arsenal when he was 16, counts as one of the Gunners' home-grown quota.

4)In addition to the 25-man named squad, clubs can use an unlimited number of players aged 21 or under. This means that Manchester City's new £22.5m striker Mario Balotelli, who is just 20, does not need to be named in their 25-man squad. According to the Premier League: "An Under 21 player is defined as one who is under the age of 21 on 1st January in the year in which the season commences. For the 2010/11 campaign Under 21 players will have been born on or after 1st January 1989."

5)Clubs can make changes to their squad but only during transfer windows, so once submitted the clubs will be stuck with that squad until January. Only in exceptional circumstances, such as a goalkeeper crisis, can changes be made outside the window, and then only if the Premier League board approves the changes.

6)Once the transfer window opens again, there are no restrictions on how many changes clubs can make to their squads, so they can replace the entire 25 if they want to.

7)Even if a player is not named in the 25-man squad, they can still play in the FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League or Europa League.

8)Players from the 25-man squad cannot be replaced if they are loaned to Football League clubs, but can regain their spot in the group if they return to the parent club.

9)Clubs do not have to name a full squad of 25 if they do not have that many contracted players and in this case they can add free agents outside the transfer window. However if they have 25 eligible contracted players, they must be named.

10)Similarly, clubs do not have to name eight 'home-grown' players if they do not have enough, but this would mean submitting a reduced squad.

Proper teams! Apart from stoke..they're inbred

[robbomk]

Gutted for Hogan.

[klonk]

don't want to be overconfident... but that is a fairly nifty 25.
:drunk:

[QPRDave]

Can't see PVM being with us much longer.Think he'll go permanantly

[Westbyfleetr]

Paladini offered Shittu a contract while Warnock was on holiday and out of the picture. Cue a barnnstorming row. Shame for Hogan but he wasn't getting much of a look in last season and probably the bnest for him long-term is he can get a decent club in the Championship and a starting place.

Puncheon can also play striker so that;s another option

[BennyBoyRs]

What...no ageymang???

[sirpiechucker]

Hogan to replace Gradel? He's been at Leeds before.

[sirpiechucker]

Paddy Kenny was born in Halifax yet is not home grown. Do not get that.

Didn't sign for a team registered to the FA until he was 20 and is Irish.

[QPR's Number 10]

I'm pretty sure homegrown means trained in the country for atleast 3 years before you turned 21, therefore that's why Taarabt is in it?
