The rules clearly state that the loaned players over and above the 5 allowed must be signed by the end of the Season.Hope fully when you fail to meet this obligation you will be deducted points as punisment and not merely fined
.
53.2.6 Standard Loans which subsequently become permanent transfers (which can occur any time during the period of the Standard Loan) shall not count against a Club's quota of such Standard Loans for that Season.
By the above i take it that Watford must sign 2 of the loan players from saturday...
I don`t have a programme are you sure they played 7 loan players as the rule states only 5 loan players can be named in any one team,i would be surprised if 7 on the teamsheet went unnoticed
