your correct re not buying players but this
goes back to the 18/19 season when they made a huge loss and FFP is over a 3 year period ..they have been under a transfer embargo over it...
also pretty sure the rules have been changed due to covid which allows this year and last to be merged...

Impressed with Reading tonight.

As for Bournemouth, I can't see their manager lasting much longer. With the squad they have, they should have been finishing in the top two this season.

The reason they kept their top players such as David Brooks, Josh King, Jefferson Lerma etc, instead of selling them for good money, was to boost their chances of getting automatic promotion this season.

Tindall will currently be under a lot of pressure I think. They didn't seem to have a game plan tonight.

The best thing they could do is do everything they can to bring back Eddie Howe for a third time - it's known he has a close connection to that club.

We should be fine. We have off loaded more than we have bought.
