Especially the three pages when Orange told us the precise details of Karl Darlow’s loan contract, including the treatment of his wages.
Barry Cooper On the striker front "The only update just now is that they're still trying to get a deal done and are pushing. Looks like they've missed out on Cannon, so the clock is ticking. Let's see what happens in the next few hours. As I've said before, the success of this window will be largely be based on how their attacking unit looks come 11pm."
Yet people are crying because we signed a keeper who occasionally saved some goals in the Swiss leagues and he wont play now because we have signed a proven Championship keeper who will likely one day get a full England Cap. Cant have it both ways.
The thing with Meffert is, he is cheap in the grand scheme and 100% should have been done a month ago.
He knows nothing. The club have done their job and kept things quiet. Barry is resorting to the tactics of most on here, play it safe and pretend they know something whilst stating the obvious. I will give you some concrete inside info, the club are currently speaking to some players and by 11pm we should know who they are. See, its easy innit?
I don’t want a surprise, I want the striker that changes the dynamics as mentioned weeks ago. I’m hoping this is just acun maximising the pr opportunity
It's fairly obvious that whoever that was it's not happening, and the back-up option Cannon isn't coming now either, so we're left waiting to see who's next on the list (fortunately, not waiting for much longer).
Unless that striker is only available if his club get their target I'm not only proving how easy it is to sound ITK but also giving Tan a good excuse to get the club off the hook. Its one big game and Sky and the wannabe Fabrizios love it.
