They're just choosing not to comply. Do the EFL have any power to force clubs in the brown stuff to accept offers ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And why we won't sell anyone.!!. Pretty sure when you buy a player you're expected to pay 100% of their wages... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their embargo means they couldn't even loan him back for the rest of the season Didnt realise that. So all the money would go towards FFP and they wouldn’t have a penny to spend?

Well under their embargo they cannot sign anyone, and I assume (not sure either way), that the EFL would force them to use that money to get back on the right side of the FFP/P&S system, but the EFL is roundly useless so who really knows 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogbad Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 18 minutes ago, Groundhopping Owl said: Does make me wonder if there's something to the suggestions that DC is hanging on and hoping that the FFP rules will be relaxed to avoid half the Championship plunging off the rails. The system as it's currently set up is farcical - right intentions but appallingly implemented. If half of the Championship are put into an embargo the transfer market will take a big hit. League 1 & 2 clubs often rely on selling their better players to the Championship in order to survive. Those opportunities will be fewer & the fees they do receive are likely to be less.

It’s tricky, because they can’t themselves determine what a player is worth If Birmingham were to say the offers didn’t meet their valuation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can do one, they can do the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Not many transfer deadline days stick out to me but I was thinking about the deadline day we signed Richard Creswell for 1 million from York.

swfc-dan Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) At least we are bringing in some goddamn pace, whether they are world beaters or not. Both were signed by Newcastle for a reason, sometimes just doesn't work out and they need a change of scenery. Iorfa could be a great signing. Definately think that means we will be playing Bruce's favoured 3-5-2 with attacking wing backs being Lazzar and Iorfa. Interesting to see if Aarons is used as a striker though.
