What about 1 letter from their names per day?4

If anyone wants to trawl back through my posts I'm sure you can see I wouldn't be telling porkies, even as far back to January for Reza not being happy at CAFC and leaving (but that broke down to no fault of his own). A few admins/long term users I'm sure will vouch for me r.e. those posts, me telling one person would be a breach of my word, so I'll leave it to the club to release the info if and when it's done.DamoNorthStand said:Incidentally, I am not about to suggest that Atletico is spreading false info (I remember 1 or 2 other occasions when he has been spot on).
But how about this as a way of proving having a credible source which will stop this back and forth in future.
Can Atletico share the names of players with 1 trusted person of his on the board (or maybe one of the mods). If we do end up signing (or even being strongly linked to) the players in the next couple of days, then having somebody being able to state "yep - those were the names I was given" would clear all of this up and mean a cleaner rumours page which no slanging matches going back and forth.
Of course Atletico, I would be more than happy to take custody of these names if you so wish
@Sasquatch, if things go to plan it's this week, but I've never really been good with timings as there's so many if's and buts that I can't influence, If I was placing a bet it would be early next week, may be earlier may be later. I'm sure the club are really trying to push them through, though, a lot to sort out.5 -
fuck it cannot keep quite no longer, one of the players is Fellaini9

Atletico is clearly in the know. He has called precious transfers right. On iously not every potential transfer goes through so even someone with the most reliable source will get it wrong sometimes.
By giving us the numbers they may well be wearing he has given us some further info. His source is clearly well linked to the club so it would be remiss of Atletico to go against that just to satisfy our impatient requests.
Must be fun for him though, seeing us all hanging in his every word.0 -

Every decent rumour thread needs a 'is he in the know/ talking bollox' type of character. Take a bow Atletico.
Much better than that t**t angeldust anyway ;-)1 -
Sounds like these potential signings must be going into the starting 11 if the numbers have been held back from the others. Does seem intriguing from the little that AA has given us. However, should these names not materialise for the club then could AA tell us who they would have been? So we can all moan about the club not having enough ambition : P0
-
A.A has been right a lot so we can give him the benefit of the doubt - we don't want him not getting further updates. Just be patient and happy that the club are still looking to strengthen.1

I wouldn't say fun, almost setting myself up for a fall if they don't go through. But I'm a fan of good news and it can only be good news if these go through which they are more likely to than not. The Gudmundsson one I got somewhat lucky with, being best friends with one of Johann's friends in Iceland, total off chance in reality but I guess it happens when you know people.sirjohnhumphrey said:Atletico is clearly in the know.

Banging in goals for fun.. Proving himself in pre season for them he will go somewhere bigger than Charlton if he does go..0

Angeldust was awful i agree, At least Atletico Addick has got things right in the past, so can be forgiven if he has these two world class players he says are about to sign wrong.carly burn said:Every decent rumour thread needs a 'is he in the know/ talking bollox' type of character.

Literally refreshing this thread every few minutes last two days.0

AA could you possibly disclose the likely date that the signings will be announced at least if you can't say their names? Thanks0

Oh sorry just saw you'd answered that in a previous comment!0

Personally I don't find it very refreshingBR7_addick said:Literally refreshing this thread every few minutes last two days.

At least ir is a proper rumour...hope it's not Morison. Leeds hate him and even Millwall say no.0

Well he wouldn't be a trustworthy friend/contact, if he spouted every thing he was told to keep under close wraps?!paulie8290 said:I think the real reason Atletico Addick wont say anything is he is enjoying the attention :-)
