Bosman1995

1995 Daily Tel. (Nexis) 21 Sept. 32 He predicts that either Westminster or the European parliament will step in to ensure football does not feel the full force of the Bosman ruling.

1996 Ice Hockey News Rev. 28 Sept. 11/1 The IHPA also fear Superleague wishes to employ even more work permit holding imports in addition to the wave of ‘Bosman Europeans’ currently flocking here.

1998 Sunday Mercury (Birmingham) (Nexis) 5 July 115 Albion have to boost their strike force before the start of the season after losing both Andy Hunt and Bob Taylor on Bosmans.

2000 Kop Feb. 6/5 It would be fair to say that Babbel is not the only ‘Bosman’ who Liverpool are tracking.

2000 Metro (London) 10 Feb. 46/4 Jordi Cruyff says that he has still not decided where he will go when his contract expires in the summer... ‘Being on a Bosman, you know there's going to be a little bit of interest from here and there and I'm no different.’
