FL lift Robins' Transfer Embargo

It appears that the Football League have lifted a transfer embargo recently placed on Cheltenham Town. The FL were set to discuss the financial problems at the club earlier today.

Details are sketchy but it appears the Robins owed Leicester City money for the loan of players earlier in the season. It is thought the players were James Wesolowski, Barry Hayles, Lethaniel Rowe Turner and Jonny Hayes.

Yesterday manager Martin Allen admitted that the signing of Wolves youngster Ashley Hemmings could not be finalised until some paperwork regarding money owed was completed.

However Hemmings was named on the bench for the Robins implying that the FL has lifted the embargo.

The Cheltenham players had to wait for their wages last week because of cash flow problems at the club.
