    JFC confirmed 1 year plus an option 
    Can I be the first to say that I'm not whelmed, or even underwhelmed.....just more like "yeah, whatever...." Lets all get worked up about a player who is crocked until xmas, will likely play a few games come February, just in time to get himself fit again for when he joins a new club next June. 

    Hope it's ok not to get too worked up about this announcement. 

    Oh, and just to add. If we HAD signed someone late last week were waiting to announce it then surely today, when all we had to announce was that an injured player had re-signed for us because NO-ONE FUCKING ELSE WILL SIGN HIM AS HE CANT PASS A MEDICAL, would have been a good day to release some better news.

    I thank you.

    No chance, although you’d expect us to have at least a couple of signings in before then.

    I'd say 3 or 4 at the very least!
    Theres a fully laden double decker bus turned up, a big huge box of Scarfies, and a load of GPO forms to act as signing on contracts.

    I personally think they want to make one decent announcement with 2 or 3 players in one go. I'm assuming they would be decent players so that it has a good impact before pre season starts officially with the matches
    What makes you think that? Is that something we have ever done before? Waiting to announce a signing so we can do 2/3 in one go? 

     Can’t see it myself.
    There are no signings.

    Golfie was right. We're depending on 4 or 5 of our youth team to ensure we win promotion. 

    And when we do, in the centre circle there'll be Thomas dressed like Elvis shredding his stuff, whipping us all into a frenzy!


    There been 3 signings and we want 10 that will include loans as well which as we know won’t happen till last few days of the window … but both NA and TS want to give the youth a chance and there at least 4 under 23 who will get a chance in pre season

    And probably 4 who won’t get the chance once it’s started.

    The player who was signing Friday / Saturday there were some things in his test results we were not happy about … they have run more tests and are waiting on results before going ahead with the deal or not I suppose

    They have a champions league qualifier in 2 weeks so must be a good 2-3 weeks ahead of us in training as well.

    Do you know which player it is and whether he would be a good addition if he passes the medical?

    So that's not a player that signed then is it?

    I have it on could authority that his grammar was poor in the written test and we are seeking a second opinion as to whether he can be up skilled.

     So he could not have signed as was claimed somewhere .
    Could be a different player. RM being wrong doesn't make CEL wrong.  They could both be right, both be wrong, or either way.  I know which one my money is on, if I had to choose.

    You're right it doesn't. But if you are wanting to get out of this division a good start is preferable. That means having the bulk of the squad fit & ready by Aug 6th as well as having them all knowing how they are supposed to set up & how the manager wants them to play. 

    On the other hand, if you are happy to just jog along as you are & bring players in on deadline day then crack on. 

    I know which camp I'd rather be in.

    God knows how some of you would have coped back in the day when we had no internet or social media. We all had to wait for a Thursday to buy the local rag to find out who we'd signed. Seeing Alan Mullery had signed five players in a week was about as good as it got ... WIOTOS
    There was always Clubcall, £2.70 to find out nothing had happened.

    Or if you forgot to put the handset down properly because it was a Friday night after the pubs kicked out it was a £185 phone call which your mum let you pay back at twenty five quid a week........


    Ouch !

    Yeah, struggling for numbers. My insider informer reckons even JFC is likely to miss out.
