Quote from: Flashheart
I've a hunch it's more a case of Clem now holding the reins, but can't actually do much until all the legalities have been finalized.

Kind of makes sense to me tbh.

Can't think what else the point is of a block on announcements if the case isn't until after the window shutting

(other than as DRS says, season ticket sales)

There is the monitored grant that may be restricting us, but I don't see the link unless power has paid it off and doesn't want Clem to know yet for some reason

I’ve re-read the statement and I find this bit intriguing

‘The club are currently not in a position to announce these signings due to the ongoing court case regarding the ownership of Swindon Town.’

That, to me, sounds like these players have already signed. If they are still just potential targets they wouldn’t be announced at all - until they signed.

No potential player is going to hang around for a month.

Well, he reckons we've contacted more than 6, and "invited them to train". So, we've got loads of trialists.

He does say we have signed more than 6 and that we also have all the trialists

Block on announcements will be a transfer ban won’t it? For unpaid loans? We can have agreed contract terms with whoever we like, but untill they get green lighted by the football league we can’t announce them as they haven’t happened?

Don’t think that necessarily means anything either way about power either.

Trialists are never announced - although some eagle eyed fans manage to identify some. Can’t understand why a statement is needed to say we’ve got some trialists - or, for that matter, that we’ve got some targets.

Got to be more to it than that.

The way I read it, it was all just trialists unless I’ve missed the tweet where he says we had signed them.

The fact that the club have felt the need to make an announcement at all suggests a possible thawing of the silence we have faced for most of the season!

Possibly the sign of new instructions being given to the media team?

Someone messaged him and said Swindon apparently signed 6 players and he replied with it's more than 6. He then answered someone else about trialists

It has been a quiet week.
No comment from Power, the club, the trust or Clem. Guess things are happening in the background.
