Abstract

Academic literature regarding football (and labour migration) to date has examined factors that influence migration trends and explanations as to why players potentially migrate (see Magee & Sugden, 2002; Elliott & Weedon, 2011). Whilst others (see Maguire & Pearton, 2000a; Elliott & Weedon, 2011) have examined player acquisition trends of clubs at specific time periods. However, there is a lack of research examining player acquisition trends over a longitudinal period thus prompting the current research and the perceived implications for indigenous home-grown players (and specifically Northern Ireland players).
