and I was already depressed. Sorry if this is a Spackman but Les is quoted on the ES
website as saying, regarding FFP
"We can't plan because we don't know what the punishment is going to be. We need to wait and see.
"It's hard for me to comment on because I don't know what the situation is. It's an ongoing situation. The sooner it can be resolved for everyone, the better it will be.
"What we can do is have some targets in mind and we have got some names of players we'd like to sign already. Once we know what the verdict is and where we're going, we will go after them."
No comment needed really...our player recruitment is a hostage to the arbitration. And what does he mean by "where we're going"?

You'll know where we're going by who the first signing is. |  |

Who is Les buying the players for ?
Ramsey or Mr new invisible Coach / Manager ? |  |

Quite possibly, and I see what you're saying - but when we won promotion under Warnock his first signing that summer was Big Fat Leon Clarke. |  | | |

For the first time I actually believe that might possibly be the Conference | | | |

Can see what he means really, if we get a 40 million fine that cuts the budget more for next season, if we get a ban from spending and can only sign loans or frees that again changes things. A real mess of our own making as usual. |  | | |

"Please, sir, may I have some more? I only have Hop-along Sandro, Needa Manure, 4 youth players and a photocopy of Taraabt's arse from the Christmas party".
"Sorry - who are you again?"
"Ramsey, sir, of the Queens Park".
"Doesn't ring a bell."
"Oh well. I'll have to put Krancjar on the game again."
"Quite right too. Now fack orf mush, before I set the dogs on yer". |  |

The only message his brain ever passed anywhere was "have something else to eat". |
Very true.Once asked a doctor friend what his problem might have been and the reply was "either synaptic lag or MacDonalds.That will be ten guineas please". | |

I think he is referring to whether the verdict goes in our favour or it goes to an appeal, rather than us falling into the conference. An appeal could mean we get slapped with a ban on bringing players in until the situation is resolved. Not really seeing much other than that.
We won't fall out the league. TF and co won't let that happen. I know there are a lot of people on here who don't believe anything they are told by the club but simply, we will be playing in the Championship next season. |  |

I hope you are right.
All this talk of foundations makes me think we are going to be locked in a basement.
Mind you if it is the conference then that would explain the Les becoming the head, and very possibly body, of the club - he has plenty of lower league experience from his time at Hayes
I guess we are waiting for the verdict before we hire a Chief Exec as well. | | | |

Well in an interview that I read he was only talking about only getting frees and loan players. |  | | |

Why can't we create a plan for action dependant on each scenario?
I don't believe "we can't plan"
Get a list of frees and loans you like and a list of players you like if we have a budget/aren't under embargo. | | | |

Or is Sir Les simply keeping his cards close to his chest ?
If he has got any inside info he's not likely to say "we're sunk and we're looking at players I the Conferance" or "we've dodged the FFP and we're going to spend big in the Championship" [Post edited 14 May 2015 15:45]

Agree with Bosh and Dave that his comments were more about where we end up financially after any fine rather than what league we end up in. |  |

If we get a hefty fine and that adds to our losses next year, will we be fined for that loss as well ????  |  | | |

perhaps we should wait and see rather than jump to conclusions. |  | | |

Not jumping to conclusions, he stated quite clearly that he is only looking at
frees and loans... | | | |
