well it's good news of course but it would be hypocritical having criticised the situation with signings at Pompey last season not to question why they league are again totally ignoring their own rules in lifting the embargo. All I'm saying is I would like to know the reasoning behind lifting the embargo as all the evidence available suggests that under FL rules the embargo should be in place not that I don't want us to be able to sign players we desperately need!

wow a normal reply, i am actually shocked lol

you wont last around here!

We're now in a "rolling embargo" whatever the fuck that is.
like i said earlier, we can now operate a 1 out, 1 in policy.

we can sign 2 at the moment as Bell and Mcdonald have gone out.

So if none of the "bomb" squad leave we wont be signing anymore than 2 unless we sell someone else first.

So Pressley should be able to sign 6 in total after we have sold Christie, Baker, Clarke and Murphy.......

Well if ccfc get away with ignoring fl rules all the other clubs might as well too. The fl is a ludicrous organisation.

They are not ignoring FL rules. They are operating within established FL rules concerning transfer embargoes - or at least that is my reading of it going by the statement issued.

It seems to me some people are genuinely annoyed that the FL are allowing us to sign players. It's almost as though I've woken up in some strange alternate reality where everyone wants the team to fail.

So doesn't letting go the likes of Wood, Jeffers, Dunn etc count then?

I'd guess no as they are players whose contracts expired in June. Apart from Dunn, who is still here.

That's because a lot of fans don't recognise it as ccfc anymore. Its more like a poor sisu eleven thats stolen our identity and moved to another town.

What exactly are the rules? My understanding has always been if you haven't filed your accounts in time you're in an embargo which means you can't sign any players at all. This 1 in 1 out is a new one on me. Of course I'm not ruling out that this happens all the time and I've just never noticed as I don't pay that much attention to what other clubs are doing!

its almost like you are disappointed.

How does that sound like disappointment,it just looks to me like asking legitimate questions as no one is really sure of CCFC related companies financial status or Football league rules

Delighted as I am that we can bolster the squad to some extent, it beggars belief how all these rules appear from the FL.

You are in embargo for not signing your accounts, well actually if you are Portsmouth you can get some players because you're a bit short, and Coventry, I know you have some unused players but shall we try 1 out 1 in, as long as it's a cheaper one?

Where are these rules? Or are we just on discretion again?
