Can Swansea recall McBurnie?

Bony out for season after yesterday's injury at Leicester.

 

They can only recall players in the transfer window can't they? Don't know whether it's different though with it not being a full season loan

 

If we agree to it they can cancel the loan.

Hopefully it won’t happen but we could end up in a situation where Swansea are saying to Mcburnie we want you back here and if he wants to go back would it be in our best interests to keep him?

 

We need him, but he isn’t totally vital. I reckon with Knasmüllner coming in we’ll be playing 451 so Moore can offer competition for Bradshaw in that setup. I’d rather have McBurnie so we have other options tactically but ultimately it wouldn’t be the end of the world losing him.

 

Plus Swansea still have Ayew and Abraham. Not sure if McBurnie would get a look in ahead of those two.

 

No idea if McBurnie is the answer. But if we are reliant on Moore and Bradshaw to score the goals then we will be in League 1 with games to spare.

 

If he gets called back, which he won't, we're down.

 

We need him in my opinion. If we hadn’t got Mcburnie in the transfer window wouldn’t have looked good at all.

 

I'd say McBurnie's a better player than Moore, as he's been doing a job for Swansea in their Premier League squad. It would be unfair to Barnsley, as we can't get another loan outside of the window. If Swansea are allowed to recall McBurnie, there would therefore be a domino effect. We would probably recall Brown from Chesterfield and so on.

 

Here's the loan regulations. It appears Swansea can't recall him. Both clubs have to agree in writing, but it can only be done after 28 days AND it has to be in a transfer window.

53 Standard Loans

53.1 Subject to the provisions of Regulation 52, Standard Loan transfers shall only be approved in accordance with following provisions:

53.1.1 subject to the proviso that the duration of a Standard Loan must be the time between two Transfer Windows, Standard Loans can be for half a Season or a full Season;

53.1.2 any recall clause requiring the early termination of a Standard Loan can only be included in a full Season Standard Loan and this can only be activated during the second (January) Transfer Window;

53.1.3 any other early termination of a Standard Loan must be by way of a mutual agreement in writing (including by way of a recall clause within the Standard Loan Agreement) between the Transferor Club, the Transferee Club and the Player but can only be completed:

(a) after the expiry of 28 days; and (b) only during a Transfer Window (but subject to Regulation 53.1.4 below) unless otherwise agreed by the League in its absolute discretion (subject to such conditions as the League deems appropriate);

53.1.4 A Player whose Standard Loan expires (or terminates) at the end of the Season of the Transferee Club but prior to the completion of the League Matches of his Transferor Club (where it is a Member Club) will not be eligible to play in any remaining League Matches for the Transferor Club in that Season; 53.1.5 Notwithstanding the provisions of Regulation 53.1.1, a Standard Loan of a goalkeeper (but not otherwise) may be subject to a recall clause exercisable at any time. Any recall may only be implemented:

(a) in extenuating circumstances and with the consent of The League, such extenuating circumstances to be determined in The League's absolute discretion; or

(b) where the Club seeking to exercise the recall has only one Professional Goalkeeper available (applying the criteria set out in Regulations 55.1.1 to 55.1.3 below). The recall will be subject to not less than 24 hours’ written notice. A goalkeeper shall not be permitted to resume any Standard Loan following the exercise of a recall.

53.2 A Player registered on a Standard Loan may continue to play non-first team football for his Transferor Club, and The League shall disregard any non-first team appearance when assessing whether any application for registration of a Player would otherwise comply with the requirements of Article 5(3) of the FIFA Regulations. Clubs acknowledge that such non-first team appearances may still be considered by other leagues, national associations and/or FIFA when assessing compliance with Article 5(3) on any subsequent application by the Player to be registered with any other club

 

So in a word?

 

No

 

Don't forget this is Barnsley we're talking about. Nothing ever goes reight for us.

 

He won't go back because there's no way we're going to agree with it.

 

Oh we will.
We'll feel sorry for them ahead of our own plight. We are BFC and good eggs.

 

After how they ****** us over in August? No chance.

 

If they asked for it i have no doubt we would agree

 

It's just simply not going to happen outside of the transfer window. I don't see any situation in which the FA would suddenly agree to make an exception.

 

What if they convert him into a goalkeeper?

 

Then the people here who wanted a new keeper in will be happy.
