Because we're Sunderland mate. I don't mind really if our signings slip under the radar, some folk might be in for a shock.
Bri there is a difference between gping under the radar and all but being ignored. For a full and proper Italian national team player from Juve! Its hard to ignore that, from a player/coaching perspective. So even if the media choose to sweep it under the carpet I doubt on the pitch teams will be caught napping.
Very true fella. Hate our media, Hate that they think lancashire is the most northern tip of England.
Don't think you can really blame the media for not reporting it yet, it's up to the club to make an official announcement first. Sky can't do any more than they already have done (little stories here and there about expecting him to sign) until the club makes it official.

You just have to laugh. On the transfer news segment on SSN they still run the Man U Fabregas story first, yet have our transfer on the yellow ticker at the bottom.
That's why it took so long to announce it... Enjoy [video=youtube;JBUmCUXauvo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBUmCUXauvo[/video]
