    Did they give you any names? Its pretty easy to say weve signed players, anyone could say that.

    I think one will end up being McCracken.

    Not sure who the other might be, but it makes no sense to me to withhold news of signings.

    I'm opposed to it.

    If it’s true players are signed and not revealed it feels as if something is happening behind the scenes. And I know Parker is away but usually every few days we have communication from GA and there has been nothing for ages

    I would be astounded if this is true. He was thought of very highly at Blades. Many of their fans were upset seeing him leave. I would have bet that other championship clubs or even Eredivise clubs would be looking at him. Even with metcalfe money im sure he was on big wages. Happy to be proven wrong mind you.

    GA has been on holiday. He is allowed a break.

    I think we're all assuming that an announcement is being held back for the fans forum in Monday which I can understand. One in the first half of this week leading into the fixture announcements would have made sense to me. If these players have signed then they've only got limited time to announce them before pre-season starts and they will be on the footage from that.
    I can only think one is linked to the away kit launch like Touray was and we are waiting for that to make one of the announcements.

    I'd be astounded too and hope to be proven wrong as well. Apparently he can play left back as well as defensive midfield. I'm wondering if we've gone down this route as, GA likes utility players, maybe we've binned off the Elder deal, using this one as both wages combined and gone for quality instead of quantity. I suppose we'll find out come Monday if the original post is correct. Put it this way, it's a name out of the blue, that's not been mentioned on social media, so I'm all for it.

    It was said that the delay was at Barnsley’s end.

    Apparently released by Wilder due to budget constraints and to make room for Phillips. He must be on a decent whack. Blades fans seemed a bit shocked.

    Peter O'Rourke was reporting that teams in the Championship and Saudi were monitoring his situstion only a few months ago.

    That's the thing they didn't but It was literally a 30 second conversation and I didn't ask either which I should have done. They're away this morning for 7 days but I will message them to ask.

    Hard to believe we have won that race. Surely a team like Bolton or Lincoln who can offer better wages and Championship football would take a punt on someone with his pedigree.

    Let's hope Town don't find out about his pedigree...

    They messed up the paperwork if you read the miners forum, so it had to be sent back.

    No need to put the mockers on the lad's career. Can't see any way we can afford him. Financially or Dressing room spirit.
