Anybody else getting an un-necessary number of embargo's from purported takeovers?

I've had about 5 failed takeovers from January through to the new season, each one preventing me from having any transfer activity until it's concluded. Finally a new guy gets the deal done and takes over, but he's still insisting on a transfer embargo since my position at the club is in doubt (he's considering bringing in Paul Lambert to replace me!).

It's now one week until the end of the transfer window and I have just 2 strikers after letting one go on a free and selling another. Got £20m sitting in my Watford transfer kitty, but i'm unable to do anything with it.

God. Never been so frustrated by an FM career in my life.

I had that but only once, it was annoying as i had to do transfer deals on the last day for one season.

I've had takeovers before, but I've never had that happen before like you Rob.

That would be infuriating.

That's crazy Rob

I had a transfer embargo due to take over bid which went on for 2 months I believe. And then has to wait another few weeks which they was expecting to replace me with David Moyes, but kept me on in the end.

How's your Watford saving going on??
