No it doesn't. Re read it.

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."

Yes, 'the failure to make payments within a 30 day period' is the failure to make payments to Villa!!

He’s blatantly trying to deduct the loan free for Barry off Philogenes miner owed to us, as I expected. Unfortunately there’s a shortage of cash.

I wonder if Acun has some paperwork to alleviate the issue with money owed to the local suppliers and an invoice for the new training and match day kits.
Kit Man must be tearing his hair out, when it arrives he will have a lot of work on catching up with everything.

City had outstanding debt to a football creditor, Villa, so had transfer embargo placed. They've now settled with Villa so embargo lifted.
But also, City missed 30 day deadline for payment (to Villa) so have had 3 window restriction placed.
Acun and Villa owner apparently have close relationship so probably not an issue, but EFL say rules are rules. Acun says there is a paper trail and will get punishment reduced/lifted.
I've not seen any confirmation of any other creditors involved in the process so far, unless anyone on here can enlighten us?

I believe Blackpool was mentioned, we missed payments to them

Think someone mentioned money was still owed from January transfer window, and so I think people believed that could be Blackpool. However, if they were still owed money then the original transfer embargo would be still in place, so that doesn't tally up for me.
It could be true that other football creditors are involved, but I haven't seen any clear evidence/confirmation of this and it appears to be speculation.
 
And that ungrateful git Cityzen turned his Norwich badge down. :emoticon-0138-think


The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

And, as my son and grandson told you, they have never,ever heard me mention Norwich. Son also told you the only other club whose result I look for and that goes back to before I had ever been to a City match.

No GFAW it says they are separate and one was resolved and the other isn't.

I basing my opinion on what the article says. If subsequent articles say otherwise, and I hope they do, then I'll base my opinion on that.

What he said to Mike White doesn't address this point but hopefully what Acun said is true.
