Transfer Quest doomed?

Here we go again, the FA have announced that Lord Stevens has been appointed to carry an audit of recent transfers. The last Quest investigation which was instigated by the Premier League failed to clear all but 17 transfers out of over 350 deals. Of the 17 transfers which were not cleared, there has been little or no further action.

Apart from firing a warning shot over the heads of so called 'dodgy' agents, the last Quest inquiry must therefore be viewed as a damp squib and a waste of time and money.

Apparently, part of this latest investigation will include an audit of the FAs procedures on new transfer rules. In winning this latest contract, Quest won the tendering process, you do wonder who else was in the bidding process, Inspector Clouseau?

If anyone is found guilty of rule breaking following the publicity surrounding this latest investigation then the cost of these investigations will be well spent, but I wont be holding my breath.
