Transfer Embargo?

[SBAndy]

Late payment to HMRC apparently. Fucking hell.

Already covered on the Wasps admin thread.

Ccfc have done a statement. Not that worrying

The club says it’s fine! Nothing to worry about!

Wait…….is this the Wasps forum?

 

[junglej13]

To be fair, something had to give from a cashflow perspective. In isolation this seems a sensible approach from the club in my opinion.

Can check the EFL page to see when it gets updated and hopefully just leaves reading.

More worrying when HMRC want to put us into admin for the money.

This really isn’t a big issue.
But it does explain why we haven’t signed any free transfers and why we didn’t apply to get yesterday’s match postponed.

What's that got to go with getting the game postponed?

Signing which free transfers?

Everything’s fine! Financial problems don’t really affect us right now!

Wait…….this really is the Wasps forum, isn’t it.

They needed the gate money from yesterday’s fixture to pay the next instalment. Had it have been postponed and they defaulted on payment HMRC can apply for a winding up order if they want and or demand the total bill is paid now and not as per the agreement.

EFL rules if you are under agreement with HMRC you are under a transfer embargo. This could be the reason why we didn’t go after free transfers once the window closed.

 

[Macca]

Seems like we are in one every transfer window

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Seems like we are in one every transfer window

Normally at the start and just after the window closes we are ready to sign players

I'm assuming it's recent as only just added to EFL site

Nothing to see here... they spread the cost with HMRC and took the hit of the embargo because the window is closed anyway and it makes no difference.

Everything is fine! Nothing to see here - the football family will make sure it’s all ok, I’m sure

 

[Balli001]

Well the statement said they had made 3 installment payments already so not recent

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Its all Dave Boddy’s fault

 

[letsallsingtogether]

well he is a c**t so yes.

Yeah but in this case it actually is

 

[Nick]

It was added to the EFL site in the last week.

 

[SBT]

Totally agree! I’ve never felt better about the club’s future!

[Grendel]

As soon as the HMRC issue is sorted we can then sort out playing at the CBS

Then just watch us grow

 

[Nick]

Bet you £50 each for charity it's cleared by the end of the year ready for January?

You're both gutted it isn't more serious.

 

[Seaside-Skyblue]

If the embargo was in until end of Jan and we can't buy players does it also mean we can't sell? You can probably sense where my head's going with this

You can still sell players under an embargo.

Lol are we already at the ‘If you’re worried about our finances you’re not a true believer’ stage of the Wasps tribute act?

So much for me saying we always paid our debts on time...

 

[Liquid Gold]

I’m about to lose my shit that we can’t sign any players between September and December. Really unfair.

No, I said charity bet the HMRC will be sorted by the end of the year.

Are you in?

No - like most clubs in financial distress, I think we’ll find a way to bluff our way through for the time being and postpone the big battle for another day. Even Wasps managed it for a few years, after all. Having a load of online loyalists swallow the party line that everything’s ok makes it easier too!

Wasps had a payment plan but failed to pay it didn't they?

Nobody has said everything is ok, they have said that this issue isn't a massive issue. You have also said it would be sorted because you flapped it from a charity bet.

Keep on puffing out your chest about an imaginary internet bet if you like, but you’ve got confused - I’ve never said the HMRC issue is going to bankrupt the club. My point is that keyboard warriors like yourself are rushing to downplay it based on nothing more than a club statement, straight out of the Wasps fan playbook.
