I guess it means we'll get one spot more to bring someone in Wingy. I don't recall hearing that our special measures have come to an end. Maybe that will happen when CCFC Ltd and CCFC Holdings Ltd are finally liquidated?

Isn't it more about FFP? With the low gates the club is very likely to produce a lower than budgeted revenue and so operate under this strange version of transfer embargo.

No, I believe it signifies that he can't play for more than 10 minutes in Pressley's system.

I would have to agree with SP here. It doesnt seem the case that Manset actually gave two shits to be honest. I'd rather he go and we get someone in who is hungry for it.

Good point about FFP potentially kicking in Godiva. Is there a set evaluation point for that? In terms of the embargo, I was thinking about how City were put in that for failing to produce accounts. While SBS&L have now done so, the two companies I mentioned have not. I forget the penalty or breaching FFP, but if it is an embargo I wonder if it'll kick in just about the time the other two companies are wound up? :thinking about:

All the above are possibly partly true.
Main reason I think, he wasn't pulling his weight....literally

I'll admit I'm judging him on one moment. It was at Port Vale, we needed a goal and he'd just come on. He received the ball on the edge of the box, he had time and options with other players in good positions. What did he do? A step over flick sort of thing and lost the ball. Then nothing.

So based purely on that. Shit.

I said he was wank when we signed him last summer. As usual though the train spotter's jumped on my back.

I believe the club has to send in revenue/cost reports every month and if cost is more than 60% (or is it 65%?) of the revenue then transfer embargo kicks in immediately.

I agree with Pressley he is a talented player but unfortunately needs to work harder.

After the Wolves game when he came on and bossed them for 20 minutes I thought that if he could kick on he would be good for us..

Shame

Unlikely, 60% of income would only cover a couple of players wages. January would be interesting but certainly next season will be dire as this season certainly applies to next season.
Get us back to the Ricoh before we go over the precipice.

Look here: http://www.financialfairplay.co.uk/financial-fair-play-explained.php
Says for league 1 (and 2) '60% of turnover' and 'monthly projection'.

If you play as a pressing team and you have one player who doesn’t press like the rest then you get found out because it’s not about an individual, it’s a collective effort.

There are standards that I expect from all the players at the club and if anybody can’t accept that and reach those standards that I strive for then, regardless of any other considerations, they’ll not be part of the group.


Many people told me when I came here that there was a degree of comfort around the football club and if I want to change that then I have to stick to my standards. If I start to make allowances for certain players not to work within the structure then the others will pick up on that – it could have a knock-on effect, and I can’t permit that under any circumstances.

I can't believe the conspiracy theorists are out in force by saying we're having to cut costs for FFP! Pressley knows the type of player he wants and this fella didn't confirm. Simples!

I believe that SISU have access to huge amounts of funds due to having anonymously bought shares in this web address:

Everytime you log on to the website you ironically line SISU's pockets!

You're an absolute fool to not put in 100% when given an opportunity to play for a football league club. The potential to live an unbelievable lifestyle, playing football as a profession is many's dreams, to throw it away due to 'laziness' is a shame.

Both, he had potential as he shown at southend, but I bet he's on very little now in comparison, plus I wouldn't be surprised if he was released.
