Aren't Troyes part of the city group? Surely the admin shouldn't be too much of an issue. Also are there anymore on loan at city group teams we can have ?

He normally seems to be fairly cautious when talking about transfers. I could be wrong but I’m sure he’s said something similar in the past and a signing was announced not to long after.

Signing players feels like it takes as long as buying a house. Somewhere there is a solicitor faxing a hand written note to another solicitor requesting a letter to invite him to sign for us, but the other solicitor is out the office for a week and no-one else can handle the fax machine

Or the fax is out of paper and no ones noticed. If its anything like anywhere ive ever worked no ****er fills the paper trays.

As we saw with the summer, better players for this level take longer to get over the line.

If you trust the recruitment team, then having to wait means the calibre of player coming in is high.
