Even a single window ban would be a major problem, especially as we continue to off-load current players in the most needed positions.

Anything other than a complete rescinding of all punishments illustrates hopeless and inept management.

Agreed. HDM: 'At the very least, fans will feel the Tigers have been guilty of lackadaisical financial management, and at worse, serious financial mis-management with a major worry over the club’s ability to pay its bills in a timely and organised fashion.'
 
It's the wrong time to be pissing off the EFL, they are under pressure given the situations around Wednesday and Reading.
 
I suppose one of the plus sides is that we should get an indication of how much of an issue cash flow is in general. If the transfer ban is reduced it would suggest that the club has defended it happening in the first place but also shown that it's not a continuous problem right? or does that not come in to it?

These sorts of things are always subjective and depend on the people on the panel at the hearing. There’s no precedent to follow so it will come down to how convincing we can spin it and what kind of mood they’re in.
 
There is no evidence of any of that. All we know is we were late paying the loan fee for Barry. That in itself is enough to trigger this fee ban. Everything else that is rumoured is likely the quickly scrambled imaginations of someone trying to look like they were in the loop before the news broke.

The HDM Article states exactly that. Perhaps they've made it up but I am going off of their reporting. The embargo was a result of the Barry fee the restriction of paying fees is for late payments. Are you saying you think it's them who made it up?

"City are no longer under a transfer embargo after settling an outstanding debt with Aston Villa surrounding Louie Barry’s loan in January, but the punishment for failure to make payments within a 30-day period stands..

The Tigers are alleged to have missed more than 30 days of payments to football creditors in the past 12 months, with the fixed punishment for that being a restriction on buying players for three transfer windows, which takes the club until January 2027."

This. Contrary to what some are posting, it's solely about being more than 30 days late paying Villa (Villa being the "football creditors").
The rest is hearsay, rumour and mis-interpretation/ mis-reading of what that article is actually saying.
