Registrations are kept until 1st June though.

Guess we will see, but how we can be embargoed when we're not in the EFL, who knows.

Think it is 1st July to register players. If you look on BBC website for transfers several have an asterisk with "to take place on 1st July" underneath.

Isn't there a formal cut off point for being in the EFL / Prem for administration purposes.  I.e. we wouldn't have switched all our admin to premier league once the full time whistle went on Monday surely.

I see the Meaning Evil has jumped on the bandwagon and rehashed the DM's story. Now other clubs are "furious" with us! Where's their evidence to back this up??
Villa need to make some sort of response to these accusations.

Our embargo is as severe as Wolves' was when they went up.

Wolves lost £57m in their last championship season.  How can we possibly be punished if they weren’t?  That assumes we’ve even broken it.

Why the fuck is their AGM in Portugal?!

My thoughts exactly.

Flying the board of the football league out to Portugal for a fucking meeting hardly gives them the moral high ground on financial prudence!

Pretty sure it’d be cheaper to stump up the cost to charter a few flights and then be paying local prices for three or fours days than doing the same in the UK, unless they’re going full Alan Partridge.

Morally, ethically, from an environmental perspective I agree.

Our financial year end is the 31 May, ie today.  We then get 10 months to prepare the accounts.  I can't see how we can really be held to account for this season's results until we've had time to prepare them.

Especially with the likelihood of Post Balance Sheet Events?

I wonder whether this 'soft embargo' became a thing shortly after Pulis managed to convince Gibson that Boro had achieved 'soft promotion' by spending most of the season in the top six?
