I think the fact that the owner/boss/chairman personally made fans aware that the deals would be happening by 12pm, as opposed to someone ITK, or on a transfer site, or other source. He, of all people, should know what's going on, so it's probably a bit silly to put something like that in the public domain without being 100% certain.

It smacks of unprofessionalism, to me, and risks alienating fans, or giving them reason to have less confidence in the board.

He actually appeared on Bloomberg TV before midday saying 3 players were signing and more arriving next week , lets hope Wigan send the £1.3M cheque in the post soon.

Well said. To discuss transfer activity while, presumably, sorting out these deals is tin-pot and unprofessional 100%

Didn't you ASSURE us (because CPFC2010 had told you?) that McCormack was signing - he must be one of them?

No, Cpfc2010 never said we had signed him. We had a bid accepted so i assumed he would sign. He didn't :(

Earnshaw is way over the hill and done isn't much to shout about,I would be underwhelmed if I was palace, but to be fair, bolasie is a pretty good player and gives them pace and trickery on both flanks with Zahaha too. Fair enough.
