Danns at 38 seems that little bit more respectable lol I couldn’t actually believe Ellison was still playing, said to the guy next to me when he came on “he must be at least 50” and I wasn’t far off fair play to him - clearly keeps himself fit and seems to have scored against as for as long as I can remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it could also have been a "frenchlad"!!! A”frenchlad”…..if we had signed Cisse when Orient did would he have been a “ frenchlad” rather than the good signing we have made now ?

No because Cisse played against us for MK Don's in league one and made a fair few appearances for them before moving to Orient. N.B. "frenchlad" is an accepted term on OWTB for random players of any nationality who usually turn out to be crap . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough Cisse is not crap “frenchlad “ because he has made a fair few league appearances. Does the same dispensation then apply to Segbe Scylla Missilou Branger Nepo, Fage Diarra Placide Maouche Badan Bahamboula Zeus etc and if it does does that vindicate Mo’s recruitment policy?

oafcforever Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Heard tonight that the issue with Leutwiler and Hope is the length of their contracts which as we are under embargo should have only been for 1 year. Also McGahey expected to be out injured for at least 6 weeks. Good news Clarke should be back for weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the fuck do you give a contract that isn’t allowed under embargo rules? Not once- but twice!! More worryingly- how do the club resolve that? If a player has got a two year deal- are we now tied into paying two players for a year that they can’t play?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s got nothing to do with the trust and certainly not the new directors who only met each other last week. None of them handle player contracts or have any decision making responsibility at the club. The trust have never, and will never get answers. It would be like me or you ringing the club and asking for an explanation. It’s just amateur hour at the club again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it might as well be me or you for the knowledge they have, or crucially are privy to. The seat needs resigning. (Keep the 3% for the bits the trust is legally entitled to see) The rest is an utterly pointless position, which is paid lip service. The only way a trust works is when they run the club- like Exeter. Not when it’s a tiny stakeholder being patted on the head by an egomaniac. I presume the contracts are Mo or Karl’s remit. . . say no more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not doubting you and have no reason to dispute the tweet about the keeper, but surely we aren't amateur enough to have got this so wrong over the two signings...

Anyway I thought it referred to loan players only? During a Transfer Window Clubs can ‘staff up’, so they have 23 players of Professional Standing within their squad. Clubs are only permitted to ‘staff up’ by signing players on loan or players not registered with another Club. Clubs cannot pay fees to acquire loan players and cannot pay additional wages on top of the salary the player receives at their parent Club. Clubs ‘staffing up’ may only register players until the end of the current Season, whilst loan transfers can only be for half a season. https://www.efl.com/-more/governance/embargoes/embargoes-faqs/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of going out on loan can't the keeper be on the same terms as Hope i.e another years option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
