Blue_&_white_wizards Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Just wondering how we have signed this keeper if we are under an embargo. I understood the issue partly to be about finances as in we weren’t allowed to spend more ( I’m presuming this lad is not on a great deal so that shouldn’t be the prime factor) but more thatbwe were not allowed to register anyone if we were under an embargo unless we had a need like Birmingham with a small squad ( again not really an issue especially in the goalkeeping department) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgmetcalf Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 What new keeper? Keepers are probably the least of our troubles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philb125 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Maybe a question for the ffp thread but do academy staff count against you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_&_white_wizards Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 Young goalkeeper Cameron McCulloch has put pen to paper on a professional contract with the Owls. Alright he’s come from academy but that is essenrially a contract that has been signed... would that therefore apply to free transfers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuttyTeabags Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Why are we signing keepers? Utterly bizarre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatcheeks Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Maybe we need him if Dawson or Wildsmith get injured? Not as if we have the best keeper in the league sat at home earning 25k per week or owt is it? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxonOwl Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I would think academy spending is outside of FFP P&S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kristmace Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 He's 20 years old and is for the development squad. Must be an exception to the embargo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utterly bizarre the club may think he has the potential to be better than what we have …….we have some strength in depth in strikers but it didnt stop the club giving borukov a contract ..

Liam Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Think it’s a good thing developing and keeping hold of the decent youngsters. I’ve heard that’s the way the club wants to operate going forward. Developing youth players with a view to promote them into the first team or use them as a potential revenue stream.

Sham67 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 He's been playing for the U23's all pre-season. Shurrup fuckingmoaning, it's so tedious. Sheesh.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weshallovercome Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I know this might sound too simplistic for some, but I'll put it out there anyway. Maybe, just maybe, we need to fill the academy void left by promoting Dawson and Wildsmith to the first team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume youth/development squads are not part of the FFP - A way of protecting the young players futures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t care if he earns 1k or 50k. He’s our best keeper and should be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
