Great to see a few more names finally added to the squad list.

Fingers crossed with a couple of loan additions we could have a good season :)

Bell: Accrington Stanley signing Barnett is coup (From Lancashire Telegraph)


This kid seems to really be a great signing, hope he lives up to it....

Re: Transfer embargo
 

think this lad will be a top signing, well done stanley.:)

Re: Transfer embargo
 

According to today's Telegraph we are under a new transfer embargo for an outstanding debt of £4500 to a Championship Club for a loan player in 2007. Stanley are disputing the amount but hope that it will be cleared up today.

Re: Transfer embargo
 

Today? - that's good, it usually takes a couple of weeks!

Re: Transfer embargo
 

If thats true, this should NOT be happening, its simple enough those 2 aint FIT to run a club.:mad:

Re: Transfer embargo
 

Who did they get in 2007 ? If it's Portsmouth or Leeds perhaps Stanley could offer them 10p in the pound :D

Re: Transfer embargo
 

Which player would that been:confused::confused: or club

Re: Transfer embargo
 

I presume it's Chris McGrail. The Preston North End kid who played a couple of times when on 'work experience' . Nearly got us a points deduction because of issues around his registration.

I don't think even Dave O'Neill can be blamed for this one.
It must be sorted by now or we wouldn't have been allowed to sign Leam Richardson this week.

Re: Transfer embargo
 

There's nowt on the LT website...yet. But two thoughts:

1) I can't see why we are placed under an embargo for what is essentially a disagreement between two clubs over a releatively small monetary amount. This is not a procedural point, such as the non-submission of accounts; it is simply a trading dispute.

2) But...talking of accounts..if the other club is right in the amount claimed by them, it means that despite going through all the headache of reopening the books and reworking the amounts due to creditors, the club and/or it's accountants have still not managed to get it right.

Maybe if we are under an embargo, then there is more to it than this.

Re: Transfer embargo
 

So we won't be able to register Leam Richardson for Saturday, despite finally agreeing a deal?

Re: Transfer embargo
 

Re: Transfer embargo
 

It could have been one of the lads we had on loan from Cardiff around about then - if it is, maybe they're tring to recoup it so they can pay Motherwell some of what they owe them??
Leam did say after the Aldershot game that he'd agreed a deal but that the club still had to register him, now we understand why that couldn't be done - at this rate we're gonna be under a permanent embargo!

Re: Transfer embargo
 

Whilst I agree that articles in the Telegraph cannot always be taken at face value, they do claim to have got this information from the horses mouth, so to speak.
'Managing Director Dave O'Neill revealed the Reds attempts to register both players have been held up because of a new transfer embargo, enforced after c Championship club unexpectedly demanded the repayment of around 4,500 for the loan of a player in 2007.
Stanley, who have had three previous embargoes in the last 12 months dispute the claim but hope it will be resolved today'

Re: Transfer embargo
 

so why no announcement on the fishy site saying whats what n the reasons? aint rocket science, simple things such as that allay fears/rumours.:rolleyes:
