    According to Delort's old man on twitter... Duchatelet is having a phone meeting this morning and they expect the transfer to advance quickly...

    He just tweeted someone saying begin to prepare a song (presumably for Andy) so maybe just maybe a fee has been agreed...
    He's also said he will sign this weekend.

    You what Andy? Is that from the Cantona school of profound philosophy? Perhaps he'll take to kicking Palace fans too.

    This is exactly what Twitter should be used for. I think he's great!

    His English is even worse than (most) of our French. Will be fun if/when he signs - "Channel runs do I, feeting quickly ball to move!" Eh?

    In my eyes best looking woman on the planet
    Not only that but from interviews and the like she seems like a girl you could hang out with at the pub.

    Her name's Jennifer Lawrence. She's an Oscar winning actress.

    How long has the AD saga been dragging on for now. A week/10 days? seems like all summer. Its reported above respective chairman are having a phone meeting today, so make or break day I feel. Please let it be so, then I can move on with my life.

    Yes this has seemed a long, drawn out saga but some transfers are like this. You may laugh but looking at it (relatively given size of clubs, players and prices) it's similar to Bale and Madrid last year. It can go on for weeks and weeks, with clubs haggling over price, comments thrown in from people ITK or not ITK, the player throwing a strop etc... The only difference for us is that we have not been in this position (of having a bit of financial clout over another club) for many a season.

    This. It's been a while since we've done this kind of thing (i.e. spend decent money), so I just don't think we're used to it.

    I agree, we are used to transfers going through quick because free transfers and loans normally do, but when you spend this amount of money it probably does take longer, but the fact we are in this position makes me feel we are definitely moving up in the world

    I've been sceptical about wether the Eric Delort twitter account is real or not...

    But can now confirm it is 100% Delort's father.

    I asked him to prove it was real and not a wind up.. I added him on facebook and asked him to accept the friend request which he has now done. His facebook account is linked directly to Andy Delorts private facebook.

    At least it proves that its not a fake twitter account and the deal must be close...

    Nice bit of investigative reporting there @Travhouse... Hope for you efforts alone that this deal goes through now else it would have been a waste else ;-)

    Still seems like a troll account. His replies are too weird even for a French person. Could just be a matter of his actual Dad accepting a random friend request on fb. You've made some good gossip mate, but unless that Eric holds up a piece of paper in a selfie saying he is Delorts father on that twitter handle I won't believe it.

    Im putting the weird replies down to google translator..

    Agree there's no real way of being sure but he posted links on his facebook account that he also posted on the twitter account.

    I won't believe it is his father until his DNA code is on the OS.
