Crystal Palace have been handed their second transfer embargo of the season after failing to pay an instalment due to Town as part of the fee for Alan Lee. The Irishman joined the Eagles for £650,000 a year ago.

Palace boss Neil Warnock says he expects to be able to make transfers again within a relatively short space of time: “We are aware of the embargo, we just have to get on with it.

“I'm hopeful it will be lifted in the next few weeks, so in the meantime we just have to crack on with things.”

Earlier in the summer, Warnock revealed that Town’s unwillingness to be flexible regarding the cash due for Lee led to the striker’s proposed move to Barnsley breaking down: "We couldn't sell him for the money which we still owed Ipswich, so we had to keep him.

"Barnsley made us an offer, but Ipswich wouldn't do us a favour on the finance front, so he stayed.”

kerryblue added 23:56 - Sep 18 What good is an embargo?Take 3 points off clubs that are messing around to sort this out.Id love to hear Warnock whinge then and as for taking Lee back no thanks,he had his chance and isnt good enough for this league,heard his Dad was a wealthy man in Ireland and when he played as a teen used to get 50 quid off him for every goal he got.His Dad is obviously a very wealthy guy after the so little goals he has scored in thepast decade.Overweight and Inconsistent.
