A number of their players walked last week, Danny Handling being one of them. Don't know if our young keeper is still there. Likely he is due to us paying most if not all of his wage

Did we not recall him some weeks back? Or did I imagine that?

I've just looked at their lineup from their last game and McNeil was their keeper.

McNeil was recalled when Thomson was injured, and returned to the loan after that. He’s getting time starting there, so it’s still valuable…perhaps more so as he’s likely getting shelled now with the more experienced players having left.

We did, but I'm sure he was loaned out again once Robbie Thomson was fit.

Edinburgh City
CINCH LEAGUE ONE
SPFL STATEMENT: EDINBURGH CITY
DISCIPLINARY TRIBUNAL OUTCOME...

Edinburgh City FC has received a six-point deduction following an SPFL Disciplinary Tribunal into SPFL Rule breaches, which were admitted by the club.

The breaches relate to the cinch League 1 club having failed to pay its players’ wages on time, and in full, on 30 November 2023. This failure to pay was also not notified to the SPFL as required by SPFL Rules and Regulations.

The club also admitted it had breached the rules by failing to advise the SPFL that it had been in default of its tax obligations to HMRC, as required by SPFL Rules and Regulations.

Furthermore, the club did not engage fully in the disciplinary process leading to further breaches of SPFL Rules.

Edinburgh City’s points tally for season 2023/24 will be adjusted immediately.

An SPFL spokesperson commented: “The payment of players’ wages, and the tax default and reporting rules, are integral parts of maintaining a fair league competition.”
