CornwallRam Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 So we've chosen to take a transfer embargo whilst the window is closed in order to be OK for when it is open? Is it just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramarena Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Odd article. Ten teams are under embargo and “Some believe clubs are taking the penalty now” How would you control the timing of the embargo? The article also gives no indication on why/how clubs ended up under embargo? All the article says is admin problems not financial problems. All very strange and doesn’t help that it’s in that paper!

Some believe clubs are taking the penalty now hoping that they will be in a position to trade their way out of embargo when it reopens. eh ???????. That makes absolutely no sense.

Gaspode Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Sky reporting that Coventry are under an embargo as they haven’t submitted their accounts on time - due to COVID I suspect there are a fair few other clubs in the same situation which is where the Daily Fail story will have come from. As long as they’re submitted before the end of the season it won’t have an impact on any transfers... More ridiculous is the fact that the government have changed the rules on the dates for filing accounts due to the pandemic but the idiot EFL have stuck by the old dates so are penalising clubs....

Van der MoodHoover Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 If it's to do with filing accounts then surely we have to wait for the conclusion of the EFL action and appeal before we know for certain the accounts won't require further amendment?

Abu Derby Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Possible points deduction and now embargo equates to League One football next season. We are currently in the biggest mess since the early 1980’s, and that nearly saw us go under altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieram Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Firstly, the EFL working against the interests of its member clubs yet again? No surprise there, then. Secondly, what's the odds that the un-named sanctimonious git criticising those clubs on the list is from a team sitting relatively pretty on parachute payments? How does he expect other clubs to respond to the pandemic? With practically zero income and players on watertight contracts that they cannot get out of, clubs have no choice but to "overspend". There's been a lot of criticism of clubs furloughing non-playing staff but what options do they have, in all honesty? None. There's no surprise accounts are being filed late. It must be an absolute nightmare for clubs to even begin to unravel the dire financial situations they find themselves in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like we can get anyone in until the summer anyway and by then it's too late to impact this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellafella Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 11 hours ago, Ramarena said: It’s the EFL Precisely. It seems to be that the EFL haven’t extended a deadline that the Government has given for companies to file their accounts. For reasons best known to themselves so probably just an administrative technicality but further evidence that although the “lights are on at the EFL, nobody is actually at home”. ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
