Gloucestershire bar agent fees

Gloucestershire, already struggling financially to compete with other English counties, will not pay fees to agents, says their chairman.”The worrying factor is agents get paid if their players move,” Light told . “We in Gloucestershire are not going to pay agents, we’ve decided we will not do that.”Agents, Light feels, are a detriment to county cricket and wants to make sure Gloucestershire’s best players are not swayed by lucrative offers elsewhere. But thats not going to be easy, he admits.”The club has a policy of not paying any agents fees to prevent a regular merry-go-round of players as is common-place in football,” said Light. “Several counties are coveting our leading players. Lucrative offers have been made to Alex Gidman and to Steve Kirby from well-to-do counties, backed by much more money than we’ve got.”Gloucestershire are languishing at the bottom of the Championship second division points table.
