Oliver Kilner (scholar) https://www.efl.com/-more/governance/embargoes So considering that we're under an embargo, my understand of it is that we still have the space to sign four more players, unless we get rid of any of the squad above. The embargo is far from ideal but a squad of 23 plus academy graduates doesn't seem too restrictive for us. I suppose the bigger issue is the state of the club that we're one of only three teams at our level to use the additional loan offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. The owners took a loan on top of the grant. Looks like only us, Scunthorpe & Swindon (in League Two) took one or are yet to pay it back.

I'm very confused. according to the efls rules of embargoes, on the same site we are listed as being under one, it says that we can offer any player a contract longer than a year... so I thought maybe thats why mcaleny left. But then realised that we gave 2 new signings 2 year contracts. So if we are under the embargo which the efl says we are, then why are we allowed to break the rules and sign players on for 2 years?

Chris15Arm Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 If they have less than 23 players they are allowed, within a transfer window, to sign free agents on a maximum of one-year deals or bring in players on loan for up to half a season.

BJBlue Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Not the end of the word really as we usually operate under similar internal limitations anyway. It would have been nice to have some kind of communication on this from the club though, especially as they knew it would happen when they rook the loan.

There is every possibility with the people we have in charge, that they have not read all the rules. Taking the extra money despite the restrictions which would be imposed would suggest ALs pockets are empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
