Because he's on 40k. Hence the transfer embargo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Just been reading (re-reading) the FA Rules sect 6.6 re Loans: Loan Rules City already have Four long term loans [Baker, Hamer (doesn't matter that he's gone back to Leicester), Robinson and Moore. Long term loans can be full season (Baker, Hamer and Robinson) or half season (Moore). That is the most we can have. Therefore we cannot cannot get any further Long Term loans in this window. Unless that is we make a current loan permanent. Not sure of the likelihood of any happening? Not sure if we can extend Moore though? I think we can? Emergency Loans can be 28-93 days and have their own window outside of the normal summer / winter window. We acquired Bennett and Cox in the previous window. We will need to wait for that loan window to re-open (after the winter window closes) to take an further players on (emergency) loan. So for the next few weeks it will be permie transfers only (if at all), unless we can convince Baker, Moore or Robinson to sign permanently.

Guest Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Think you're right Dave, but I read it slightly differently re Robinson. Seems to me he would be a Youth Loan (20 or under on 1 July 2015) and as these seem to be distinguished from long term loans I don't think he'd count towards the 4 man limit. Clear as mud though ain't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear as mud though ain't it? I did wonder that...but tied myself in knots. Would be good news and scope for a half-season loan if so. You would question using up all 4 at start of season otherwise.

GrahamC Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 1 hour ago, Davefevs said: His interview in WellRed pointed us in this direction too. He has also got involved Charity wise. i think he has been a good loan signing, he wants to play and would make a good permanent addition to the squad. Do we know how much is left on his Norwich contract. Signed 3 year in 2011 according to wiki, but no mention he signed a new one? Out of contract in June, apparently.

A long term loan is someone signed pre 31 August through to Jan or for a full season (6.63 para 2), Moore was signed on 1 September until Jan only. So actually, we're not in too bad shape? We've used 2 of 4 it would seem to me on Hamer and Baker with Robinson a youth loan and Moore and Cox short term loans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are the standard rules for 2015-16 http://www.thefa.com/~/media/files/thefaportal/governance-docs/rules-of-the-association/2015-16/038_standardised-rules.ashx and at the same part it refers to 31 August rather than 'closing of transfer window'. If they meant the end of the window I'd say they ballsed it up and we could rely upon that date, after all they knew (or ought to have known) the closing of the window when these rules were released.

Aren`t the rules Europe-wide? I bet we`re the only country that has an August Bank Holiday so UEFA would just ignore it if so. The FA would presumably then have to seek an `amendment` to cover it which I guess they would have - even they`re not that dim surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went for Gray and Gayle and that is the calibre of striker we need - there must be one out there somewhere - abroad maybe... in principle I agree, but if we couldn't get the likes of gray and Gayle to join in the summer, how on earth will we now. Like you say maybe unearthing another European gem will be our only hope of getting someone anywhere near their standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
