Ed1, is there any indication whether we're getting a ban yet? Everything seems to be on hold whilst we wait.

Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - I am not going to bother him with this. No ban will happen without an investigation, a charge and a hearing. Right now, the Premier League asked for Liverpool to provide further information and aside from an apology about initially lying to the FA again, is where we are. A ban will not come out of nowhere - that is not how the process works. Move on there is no charge at this time - but perhaps there will be - but there will not be any announcement of a ban.}

Thank you for your reply Ed. So any delay over transfers is down to the club then.

It seems like the wind has been blown out of our sales somewhat.

{Ed002's Note - You do appreciate that the transfer window is not open Nick?}

Sorry, yes Ed I know but at one point two weeks ago it sounded like we were on the verge of signing vvd and Salah. Now it seems like nothing is happening.

But as you say, I should appreciate the fact that there is lots of summer left for transfers.

{Ed002's Note - I understand that folk came out and said "done deal" and I stood back from commenting. There is little point in me explaining any more after everything that has been said. I am sure there will be many, many marquee signings conformed by the club before the transfer window opens.}

Yes you're right. Sorry Ed, although I can assure you I'm not looking for any 'marquee' signings, just good players joining the club.

{Ed002's Note - I expect Liverpool to add a number of players to improve the squad this summer - but it doesn't need to be before the window has opened Nick.}

Thanks for all your time and all your replies ed2. You're very good to us reds fans.

{Ed002's Note - If they are good questions Nick they are worth answering.}

Hi ed02, sorry to bother you. How come clubs can confirm they've signed a player and share pictures of him signing his contract in their teams shirt before the window has opened? Lindelof and tolisso for example. Is this just a sort of pre contract agreement but the transfer will not go through until July? Sorry if it's been asked before.

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of what has happened with Manchester United showing picture of Lindelof - but again, the international transfer window open July 1. Agreements can be reached but transferser not registered.}

You can sign a player at any time, it is simply an agreement between clubs to end one contract and start another.
You can only register a player as your player from July 1st or January 1st.
What I suspect is happening is clubs are agreeing the terms of a transfer which will go through on July 1st, but the transferring club is happy for the player to ceremonially sign a contract in front of the media and wear a club shirt.

Oh and by the way,

Do you know if we are getting a ban or not? it's just no one has asked it the last 10 minutes and I think everyone might be getting worried something has changed in the last 10 minutes and we do not know about it.

Haha.
