New Signings

Post by hibbi86 »

So we have signed our first player...

Stuart Taylor has signed a 1 year deal with LUFC, This would mean then the Embargo has been lifted at LUFC and we should likely expect more signings in the not to distant future.

Im a little giddy again now :-)

Sorry to be pedantic, but it doesn't mean the embargo is lifted.

The embargo is on transfers, Taylor is a free agent so it's not a transfer (similar to how Peltier could join Huddersfield before the transfer window opened because he was released from his contract here)

Damn you with your reasoned argument based on knowledge and information.

There you go again, stamping on the hopes and dreams of impressionable people with truth and sense.

More irrationality, based on conjecture and speculation, that's what we want.

Downgrade on Kenny, hopefully a back up...

And never really above 3rd choice at any club. Considering Kenny is likely to leave and the only other keeper on our books is Cairns at the moment, I would hope we are bringing in a first choice to go along with Taylor as back up.

It's the fate of reserve goalkeepers.

Must be a very strange career, well paid but with the knowledge that you will almost never get the chance to do your real job.

The trasnfer Embargo is in place to stop you spending more money due to the failure to meet your payments, be it wages, winding up order, tax bill etc....

Surely the FL arent that stupid to only ban transfers that consist a transfer fee, as even free player cost money you still have to pay for their wages....

The Peltier scenario is completely different yes hes a free agent so he can sign for anyone he wants when he wants, however huddersfield are not under a trasnfer embargo.

You're banned from the board. In accordance with the Hockaday principle, anything less than 110% is unacceptable.

Shame, I've rather enjoyed your posts, but rules are rules.

Perhaps from last season, but this year they will need double doors to get him on the coach. Never seen this chap play but Kenny was terrible before he blimped.
