    See this is why we need a fan advisor, and one who has only just left school to interpret these posey hand gestures they all do in photos these days!

  • To be honest, I didn't even spot the 'C' & 'A' signals.  I just spotted that Mckirdy was wearing Swindon's away shirt (which is very similar to ours) with the badge covered over & then he liked a comment saying Charlton Athletic.

    I've obviously read too much into it!!

    Feels appropriate to post this again with the McKirdy mystery...

    As we're clutching at straws...



    Does that mean Tom Cannon is more likely to come to us now, as rumoured recently? If we're even in for him, that is.

    McKirdy is doing the A signal that a small group of premier league footballers do.

    There’s a group of them that do it that are all in the same Whatsapp group. Grealish and Maddison are in it along with others, McKirdy was also in the same youth team group as Grealish at Villa.
  • Just when I thought footballers couldn’t get any more moronic.

    "Maddison explained that it is a nod to a WhatsApp group chat containing several Premier League players.

    “We have a little group chat called ‘The Avengers’, there’s a few of us in there, a few of our friends from outside of football, about 10 or 12 people in total.

    “Jack Grealish, Ross Barkley, Dele Alli and John McGinn are the footballers in the group.”

    Saw this on Facebook, taken from McKirdy’s instagram.






    Also added this to his story:


    Maybe I'm about to be whooshed here, but surprised more hasn't been made of these 2 pictures on this thread.  I'd say it's very likely Mckirdy is on his way.  Am I missing something??
    Is this a job for Mulder and Scully?

    Looks like he is signifying the letter E to me. Probably some sort of spoofing game

    Mcgrandles isn’t a DM. He said on signing for us, that he filled in there last season because of injuries

    It seems like the rumours are becoming less and less now which may mean more is being done behind closed doors we just don’t know about, but it would also seem to imply the majority of the action will happen at the end of the window.  

    I really don’t see how that is any different to last year if that’s the case.  The only difference being who we may bring in.  However, as with most of our deadline day action in recent years, it’s not been very inspiring

    "Turned into" It always has been.

    Not sure how the majority of the action will happen towards the end of the window, when we got 6 players in before the season started, and the likelihood is we will be bringing in 3, maybe 4 more max I expect.

    Wonder how many more clubs across the football league will be doing similar?
