dont expect loans...

Tsk-tsk. Damon, I am disappoint. By now you should have thrown the FA Handbook at this thread, but now I will have to take the mantle as pedant-in-residence.

Ahem:

SECTION M
TRANSFERS OF PLAYERS’ REGISTRATIONS
...7.5 the maximum number of Temporary Transfers to any one Club registrable in the same
Season shall be 4 and in no circumstances shall more than 1 be from the same Transferor
Club save there shall be excluded from these numbers any Temporary Transfer of the
kind described in Rule M.7.6.1 or M.7.6.2;
7.6 not more than 2 Temporary Transfers shall be registered by a Club at the same time
except that there shall be excluded from that number:
7.6.1 any Temporary Transfer which become permanent; and
7.6.2 the Temporary Transfer of a goalkeeper which in its absolute discretion the Board
may allow in circumstances it considers to be exceptional;

But really, read the whole thing if you're really curious about how the loan system [is supposed to] work.
You can blame Pompey's attempts to assemble a squad of loan players for these restrictions, btw.

In our case, I don't think Dier is counted as a loan since he probably hasn't signed a pro deal yet (not quite sure, he's turning 18 in less than a month, so I guess that he'll have to play as a schoolboy or something for the rest of the season. So we have room for one more loanee and that's it.

I don't think Dier counts because he's under 23 so, you're right, one spot left. I hope the club know that, after the foul up over Vaughan's switch to Celtic.

Wha??????

I originally said I'd take him, but now starting to think this money would be better served elsewhere. Isn't it too late at this point? Plus he's cup tied.

Do we really need another winger? I know folks say he can play in the center...but....but...

Good stuff. Beggars can't be choosers.

 

[ijjysmith]

Surely after they've smashed us on Wednesday?

 

[Brownie]

Why does he even want to come back the mentalist.

got to be frank ,

 

[ijjysmith]

This too.

Surely a loan?

I'm thinking id be pretty fuming if we paid a fee for him. If we have any money it shouldn't go in him.

In fact I actually think he might disrupt the dressing room a bit.

Oh god I'm split again.

splinters in his bum browns

 

[best little spaniard]

Yay.

Beggars can't be choosers, but still. Seriously worried as to what players we'll have next season
