The person in charge of transfers left NZF on Friday for a new job.The person who was placed in charge of transfers was away on holiday and didn't have internet access. They were aware of the window but it was unexpected for NZF that a transfer was coming.Office staff picked it up when they got in on Tuesday but couldn't work the system.They tried to do it manually but after the deadline passed (read Wednesday).

So seems like NZF didn't train staff on how to use the system / didn't do a proper hand over and they lacked the ability to actually use the FIFA website.

If they started the manual process (which I'd imagine is sending an email to FIFA?) before the deadline passed rather than the next day then I'm sure it would have all been okay.

If this is correct then the Nix had not forewarned NZF a transfer was coming.  That may have helped if that had alerted NZF to make sure their remaining staff were up to speed. 

95/5, 90/10, 80/20, 70/30, who the heck cares what proportion of blame is involved between the parties.  All I want to hear is that when we are planning an overseas transfer we alert NZF one is coming.  It seems unbelievable we'd not.  They don't happen every day.

Over it though.  We look like bozos, NZF look like bozos and a decent UK kid is going home.  That's my club and my NZF.  Pointing fingers doesn't change that we are all looking like bozos.

I doubt nzf would appreciate a heads up for every player that nz clubs happen to be talking to.

Don't be a Twit.  This was a signing that they expected to put through over anniversary weekend.  If you think it is dumb to give a heads up to NZF on this then I think that your thinking is just dumb as well.

I especially like how you started with the personal attacks there. All class.

And I appreciate that you twisted the argument away from what it was - an international transfer from NZs only professional club (as I've amended this), to suggest that this would apply to all NZ local transfers.  Sorry but that IS a twit of an argument.
