Great fit for us, gelled well with the team, fans. If he is without a club, can it be sorted out?

Its gone Jonty. The greedy, amatueristic so called agents have spoilt it....
Glad Evatt told the truth and that of the Birmingham lad too.
Everyone would of been slagging the club off on here if we didn't know.

After following those agents on Twitter for a few days I am struggling to believe that they are real, it seems like a parody account.

The lad's been in football quite a while - you would think he would know better!

His history would suggest that he's probably been good enough to warrant the attentions of an agent since his early Swansea days. And to be fair, playing in the Premiership you'd probably need one. So like many other pros he's probably gone through his career accepting the role of an agent without much question.

The problem is that as his career has drifted for lots of reasons he has probably felt more reliant on his agent to keep him afloat. Once you get down to our level the constant intervention of an agent can actually do more harm than good because there is a tendency to treat him as a diminishing asset rather than a person. That's before you consider the impact of an agents fee on the players price.

Looks very much like Nathan Waterston has the same agent unless they randomly congratulated him on his loan move

Nathan is not represented by them.
They are being very strange with the way they are tweeting about him and have been bombarding him with messages trying to sign him up.
Had this confirmed by both nathan himself and his dad

Another weekend kemy hasnt got a game could have been facing Chesterfield. Do agents have to compensate their clients in such circumstances ? Not much time to do a deal before the window closes

Frustrating. End result- we lose out and Kemy and is left without a club (or at least it appears that way heading into this weekend.

He and Evatt had agreed a deal and his agency stepped in and scuppered it so denying him the chance to work and earn a living.

They did this because OUR club - quite rightly - wouldn't pay THEIR expenses.

I think they've missed a word out there. It should be "further into disrepute".

Is he tied to a contract with this incompetent outfit? Surely if he wasn''t he would have kicked them into touch by now. They definitely are not acting in his best interest.
There must be a get out clause as they are depriving him of a living because I am sure they are the reason he hasn't been snapped up by some club.
