    Anyone who thinks it was Cleverley we tried to sign needs to give their head a shake

    I bet said player will rock up in the summer and it will be like Derbyshire all over again. 'We tried to get him in January but for one reason or another, it wasn't possible so we're delighted to finally get it over the line'.

    By the sounds of it the EFL haven’t made a formal decision on it yet but he is expecting a no due to precedent.

    i do agree though i would have rather it been said in the first place it was unlikely. Poor comms from the club.

    Work it out for yourself. The information is there and you seem intelligent. Go with the analogy of there's always two sides to every story. And neither on their own tell the full story.

    It's your choice as free member of society. Choose to read and believe what you want. I only post my opinion on here, not for me to force that view on to anyone else. Seek your own 'truth'.

    Blackburn did with Lewis 'O'Brien. I suspect you would announce it simply because like them you would appeal if rejected.

    I've updated the thread title to try and keep it on track to this one outstanding issue.

    Guessing it's dead in the water , it's gone on too long now , frustrating I know, but imagine the uproar if it was it was a top profile side in prem you would never hear the end of it and the unfairness of it all

    Love it to be named before the game, would ramp the crowd up. Tom Cleverley for a home coming return? I wish I guess.

    He's 33 now , could you just imagine the meltdown on here if we did bring him home we'd have the oldest midfield in all the divisions.

    Poor from the club really. Hughes saying everyone knew it would be unsuccessful, only the media and fans didn’t.

    But didn’t he say on Thursday it was still up in the air? Now he’s said it was a non starter since Tuesday. As you say, poor communication.
