    I checked it already and Bundesliga went away from 3 non-EU players in 2006 and currently have a home-grown rule{similar to England} where 8 players on a game sheet must have come up thought the German Youth System and where at least a half of those must have been eligible to play for the Club there between the age of 15 to 21.

    Sounds like a variation of a system with encouraging home-grown talent.

    Thanks for the document.I saved.It's from 2006,but in principle correct...

    The "funny" thing is that in Czech rep. the CFL{Czech Football League| counts a foreign player even an EU citizen such as a Slovak player.In Gambrinus Liga they go by 3 non-EU players,so a Slovak player would be considered "domestic"...

    If you have a more recent/current document,please post it as well.

    Thanks.

    For fu[ks sake, do you always have to be an ass to everyone[FONT=DejaVu Sans, sans-serif]?[/FONT] The question was pretty specific and complex and, while maybe not that difficult to find out, would probably be very time-consuming. You could have just answered the question, since you think you know everything anyway, instead of posting a childish comment like that. You and iad_22201 should form a team and just go kick people in the kneecaps.

    I may be behind, but that doesn't mean that my point is moot.

    Actually, a couple of years ago, I did some research and subsequently made a post listing most of the Euro league foreign player rules.

    The non-EU/work permit issue comes up every other week, so I wanted to make it a sticky but the mods differed and off it went.

    If you search for it, it's somewhere on this thread.

    iad_22201 is really Nigel de Jong .... be careful whom you want to break your kneecaps because you don't have to ask him twice.

    Not at all... fortunately for you there is a special "TimB4Last" exception to those limits. Nobody has been able to take advantage of that exception because they were all trying to figure out what the hell that means and how to qualify. ;)

    Which is a rule unique to the Bundesliga.

    Other leagues have other provisions.

    I think that eventually it will go to "home grown" rule as in UK and Germany across EU.They try to "standartize" everything etc.

    What does the Bundesliga foreign player limit have to do with Charlie Davies?

    I did read it a-hole, and that is why I am wondering why i just read three pages about stuff that has nothing to do with Charlie Davies career at Sochaux.

    Agreed, but let's leave personal attacks out of it. Thanks.

    Please try to keep discussions as relevant as possible to the thread topic. Thanks.

    You are playing with "fire"...You comment isn't directly related to Davies.That could be too much to handle for some...:)

    I do appreciate that you've done that work. But, the original question wasn't asking about rules regarding non-EU players, but how many non-EU players were on each clubs' roster, and which club had the highest number of non-EU players on their game roster. That is an entirely different question, and one that is much more difficult to find out, unless you know the ins-and-outs of every club, which I sure as hell don't. Now, it seems, that the original question posted by Czechsoccer was in fact not intended to have this meaning, but it was worded that way.

    And I love Charlie Davies, and it seems like he's making slow but solid progress even if the club president is generally slightly negative towards the situation. (That does make this a post about Charlie Davies, right?)

    Are you talking about the reserve match, or the first team? All I'm seeing on the reserve match is that they lost 2-0. Same as the first team.

    Well, and Charlie's tweet,
    "Good Night Everyone! Big game for me tomorrow vs Nancy in the reserve league. Looking forward to building off my last match & with a GOALASO".
