I think it's the Football League that has to approve the loan, not the FA. But I can't remember hearing of them turning loans down. When we got Ajdarevic and Davies on loan last season we weren't short of midfielders.

Ajdarevic dont count as he was a free agent, Just like Dickov who is now training with Leeds.

No he wasn't, he was on loan from Liverpool.

Are you sure? I thought there was 2 or 3 clubs looking at him cus he was a free agent, And i`m thinking he was on trial with us and not a loan befor we signed him up?????
He was on trial before he joined us on loan.

Your too good, I still think City will not be allowed to sign a striker as an emergency loan.

So as the ref took no action, couldn't retrospective action be taken against the player using the video evidence?
Normally video evidence would only be used if the ref didn't see it. He may have seen it and decided that no action was necessary.

I don't understand what people are missing on the potential loan situation.
Outside of the transfer windows (July/August & January say), there is a seperate "loan window" for Football League clubs. This opens a week or so after the regular transfer window, and closes end of November I think, and then closes again sometime in March from memory of last year. Loans in these periods are what Jeff and co. are referring to as "Emergency Loans", there are no restrictions on you who are allowed to take on loan (or at least no extra restrictions)
It is only outside of these "loan windows" that clubs apply for loans that sometimes get rejected by the Football League, in situations where for example the club argue they have no goalkeepers available due to injury.
Right now, we could sign a striker on loan without the Football League caring. When the loan window closes, it's a different story, and they'd no doubt be telling us use one of the other 5 you've got.
(I hope that's right, or look a bit of a twat

If the ref didn't see it (i.e. it's not included in his match report), I think that's the only time retrospective action can be taken.
If the ref saw it and deemed it not a foul/not a booking/not a red card, then that decision can't be changed.
They would have to approve it.
Loans outside the transfer window are really supposed to cover things like injuries and suspensions etc, but it's unusual for the league not to approve them.

On the other hand the football league might turn round and say that this is not an emergency cus you have another 5 strikers.
And NP would say, no we only have three. Howard, Waghorn and Yann.

Very Good, Stick N`Guessan and Gallagher up top then.

If NP sees these players as midfielders the Football League shouldn't tell him to play them out of position.

Plus Yann is out with an injury at the minute and he wasn't match sharp before the injury so could be weeks before is is affective.

Agree in principle, as I think N'Guessen has been pretty good in most of the games he has played, but I think he's more effective out wide. That's where he did damage at QPR and Blackpool, which were his best two games in my view.
I think Waghorn is capable of playing the central role and, while I'm not a big fan of Gallagher yet, I think he ought to be given a shot in his 'natural position'. Yann and Howard, as much as I like them and as much as they can bring to a side, don't carry a regular goal threat.

Plus he is yet to score in 13 games, so we would be well within our rights to argue that's he's not actually a striker.....
