The home game against Peterborough when he came on made my mind up that in my opinion he should have never put on a Latics shirt again (unless Wigan want him!).

He’d get dealt with on a weekly basis against some of the seasoned pros in this division. Hahahahahhha that’s a brilliant joke. You are joking, aren’t you? Phil Foden would get dealt with on a weekly basis? My god what am I reading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a good tournament for England under 17’s and you think he’d be our best player? If anyone’s a joker it’s you if you think he’d come here and rip up trees. The kid is far too small for lower league football. Personally I don’t think he’ll end up making it at City either but we’ll have to wait and see.

Hands on Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Wonder if Corney has pulled the plug in an attempt to get the EFL to make a decision. Still can't get my head round the idea that McEleney needs International clearance when he is an EU citizen - well he sounds like he is. AS is eluded to there seems to be some sort of 'embargo'. Looks like we might do as well in January as we did in December. It doesn't look like a transfer embargo to me. It looks more like Wellens has no more money to spend so has to lose players first.

If a club is under an embargo (as we were close season) it is then monitored closely throughout the season by the EFL. I wholeheartedly agree with this system. It differs to FFP which is retrospective. One must assume that if AL has been covering the wages then he has probably been loaning the money so far rather than investing yet! BTW I have no idea how Bury get away with their dealings through various loans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsPete Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Mike Keegan reply to being asked if he could update on takeover.

BTW I have no idea how Bury get away with their dealings through various loans This tallies with what Wellens said i.e. " We are quite close to the limit at the moment". Sounds like they are taking a very keen interest in our wage bill at present. Re Bury - I was told by someone who knows the chairman that they get around it by taking loans out through companies that are separate to to the football club so the debt doesn't belong to the club and therefore doesn' t effect FFP. However, he didnt really explain how that money made it's way in to the club playing budget without being considered a loan. He also told me the alleged ultimate source of the money - but I wouldn't repeat that on a public forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagger Lee Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Baxter - permanent signing till the end of 2019, Kevin long (Burnley CB) season-long loan, Byran, and Doyle to return all FACT and to be signed Monday morning.
