Talking of titbits...
in the 60s and 70s in England there was a magazine called "Titbits" which had odds and ends in it and photos of topless females. Very tame by today's standards but risqué at the time.
 
It's not naive, it's simply looking at what might be. Not having a player on board is more or less the same as having an injured player in your squad; it should be avoided if possible. To be just short of points in May when none are won in August would be a notable statistic and having no sought after striker would be a fairly considered cause. There does not need to be any presumption of going undefeated after August (which is a stupid statement), as no one has said it would be the sole cause, simply a major one - not to see that would be very naive to be honest.
One of my overriding concerns about Palacios is that, should it drag on into the season, he is yet another player unavailable to Bruce; we already have Diame and Snodgrass from last season which is far from great, add Palacios, Gray and Odobajo to the non-availability and we have a self-inflicted crisis in the making. We saw what squad depletion did to us last year.
Either you simply want to argue, or you don't understand why a team has a squad of players.
This is exactly what I was trying to say.
 
Just because it hasn't been announced before 12 doesn't mean it has been completed before 12. It may have still gone through.

Guess that's true. You'd think Buckingham or Burnsy would be on top of it though? So I guess we'll find out within an hour or so.
