The thing is, if we're on a restricted EFL business plan in any case, if we're in danger of busting the overall budget on that anyway, and near to FPP limit, the lifting of the fee restriction or suspension of it -- should it happen -- is pretty irrelevant. Frigan has frigging gone too.
 
What a cop out from the EFL.

Q: Has a decision been made on Hull City yet?
EFL: Dunno
Q: Why don’t you know?
EFL: Independent panel innit
Q: When did they say they would be back with a decision?
EFL: Dunno?
Q: Why don’t you know?
EFL: We didn’t ask them.
Q: You could maybe give them a call?
EFL: Nah, they’ll get back to us when they get back to us
Q: But you do realise there are 4 players with their careers up in the air?
EFL: Independent panel innit

As soon as we signed McBurnie we weren't getting Frigan. Regardless of embargo. We just don't have 7m to spend in this window, and if we had the funds, FFP wouldn't allow it.

FFP doesn’t in any way prevent the signing of an individual player. I’m not sure you are fully sighted on what you are discussing.

You can sign the player, you just need to offset the cost if you are at your limit. There is no prevention.

So we are going to sign a centre mid, left winger and a 7m striker despite having already brought in 2 other strikers this window and offset the lot by flogging Kamara and getting 60% of the profit from Puerta?

It's never been feasible although it technically would be possible if we could create the headroom.
