We are no longer on the Embargo list for League 2 clubs on the EFL website. Has the embargo been lifted does anyone know?
My stupid work internet doesn't allow copy and paste for non-work related websites so can't provide a link, sorry.

https://www.efl.com/-more/governance/embargoes/Wouldn't be surprised that its an EFL admin error. That said, it would allow us to start negotiating extensions sooner rather than in June (or whenever it automatically lifted)

see the adver have jumped on the news. but is it news? We’ve managed to build a pretty strong squad within the restrictions. The restrictions and embargo only lasts for one season and then it’s lifted, even if you haven’t re-paid the loan in full.
“So while you’ve got an interest-free loan of £1.04 million that you can re-pay over four years, the restrictions only last for one season.”
season ends. embargo lifted. seems like that was always going to happen according to the above

It makes zero sense to pay off the debt now, when we are less than a month away from it lifting anyway.
It must be an error from the EFL.

It's not an error, we paid the first part off that needed paying and the rest is interest free so we are out of the embargo

It would allow us to offer longer contracts sooner wouldn't it? July 1st is a bit late if that's when it would naturally expire, isn't the league starting early next season?

If there was anything to pay off whether we needed to or not and the club have paid it the. There must be a reason to have done so.

It was done to ensure we could tie Charlie Austin down to a decent contract :-)

Clubs have to communicate by the end of May their retained list. Makes perfect sense to be ahead of the game.

I don't think we've paid it off. We've made the initial year's repayment of the covid hardship loan, have agreed a plan to pay back the rest over the next few years, and have accepted the embargo for the 2021/22 season as the price of paying it back over time. That season proper is now over, so I guess that's the end of the embargo, hence we're off the list. Other clubs embargoes must be related to other issues I guess.
