Stevie1972 6 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Noticed that the 31st of August lands on a Saturday this year, due to that has the window been extended to Monday the 2nd due to games on the Saturday & the 1st landing on a Sunday?If this has been extended would we be able to buy players (if any money in the pot)??

loyalfollower 1,543 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 No. We were banned for the 2 transfer windows. Never saw any dates that said when we could sign players Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 So in theory we can register players on the 1st and then buy players on the 2nd and register them? Doubt they will let us do that but if we have it in writing that we can register players on the first then I don't see why not ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quabba 440 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 It's a registration ban, we can sign players but can't register them Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wearethepeople1 3,897 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 It's a registration ban, we can sign players but can't register themYes, but it has been reported that we can register players on the 1st which falls on a Sunday. So in theory we should be able to buy players on the Monday and register them the same day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochBear 1,613 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 FFS what's the point in debating this, the SFA etc. will not allow us 1 seconds grace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daviecooper01 826 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Ain't going to happen, and TBH do we really need to BUY anyone?We have a bunch of new singings, with only half of them used so far - reckon we should have MORE than enough to get us to January at least.And again, even then, why do we need to buy anyone?

Spectre 1,663 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 But for our ban the window would be extended but there's no way they'll do it this year, even if they did I doubt we'd run out and splurge the cash Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iain1712 336 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 It's a registration ban, we can sign players but can't register themIt's more than a registration ban. we are not allowed to buy anybody, that's why it been free transfers only.

esquire8 43,269 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 In sure they said the registration ban had been extended when the transfer window extended. Could be wrong though. Very much doubt the SFA / SPFL would have over looked this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarrhillLoyal 32 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 No,it's a registration ban that ends on 31 aug. I noticed this many months ago.However, let's be real here. We are short of cash and have absolutely no need to buy anyone to win the league this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC Eagle 4,888 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 The SFA have already stated that their offices will be open on the Saturday and there will be no extension to the deadline window. We will be able to register players we have signed (or may sign) from Septemer 1st (2nd in this case as SFA will be closed on the Sunday). Can't find the link but it was mentioned when the registration ban was handed to the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchy 1,200 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 In sure they said the registration ban had been extended when the transfer window extended. Could be wrong though. Very much doubt the SFA / SPFL would have over looked this.I vaguely remember something about this last year as well and although I can't remember the details, the conclusion was that we'd be alright. As every other club would be because of the cut-off date falling on a Sunday.The only thing we should be worried about is a George Cadette type of registration delay, and that I wouldn't put past the bastards.

allgers 735 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 More than happy with the players that have been brought in, with some of the guys we already had starting to show a bit more promise, why would, we get out the cheque book.

Stevie1972 6 Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 Buying players.

bilko89 507 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 This rings a bell, I remember this being said when we were given the ban. Not sure what the outcome was though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
