As a professional journalist, Naylor should also be limited by facts. As print media struggles in the Internet age, professional journalists' reputations mean more and more, not just for the journos themselves, but also the newspaper they represent. If people can get their news anywhere, they are likely to go where they get news they can trust.

If he makes claims like this on a whim, without some credible source, and it turns out to not be true, his reputation and that of the argus would suffer making it harder for them to bring in readers.

He may not have had to get the ok from the club to write it, but the argus's editor would probably have to ok it.

Maybe the club haven't officially let him know, that doesn't mean he hasn't got unofficial word, a well-placed employee who leaks information without the club's permission, etc., maybe he got word from agents, or sources at other clubs (via other journalist local to those teams). The are a few ways he could get information on how close the deal is to being completed.

This.... With bells on.

£8m in a fortnight ago, the extra £3k a week for Ward could have been executed within an hour not still paper talk
In that case, I'm ****ing glad you are not in charge of negotiating players contracts!

The moaning is not spot on. When it comes to the transfers, its pathetic! Pre-season games mean **** all. Who gives a shit if we have a strong squad and piss every preseason game.

Preseason is about getting match fit. FFS we make about 10 subs in every game, how the **** does that relate to the normal season.

Hypothetically, say we only had a budget for those three players mentioned.

Too stop whinners, the club rushed in, as you want, and signed two of those players in May, and to do that, we would have had to pay what they first asked for.

How would you feel if we only signed two of them, because we paid over the top for them, so couldn't afford all three...............

Or would you prefer to hold out until August, and get all three of them, as they are still without clubs, getting nervous, so dropped their wages demands, and now we can afford all three?

It's a no brainer to me!

The thing I do not get about the moaners regarding transfers, do you not think that the club will lose £8m again this and next year, which Tony Bloom will fund?

I believe whatever happens, we will lose the most each season we can(around £8m) and still be within FFP. So the club are trying to spend the budget and get the most they can for it.

If that means waiting until 31st August to get the maximum return, then so be it.

And before you say it, I'm sure even with those three signed, the club still has most of the Ulloa fee to spend.

FFS how cannot you not trust a set of business men, who get £750,000 for three months of Ashley Barnes, and then go and top even that and get £10m for Ulloa!!

So no, the whining and moaning in this case is most definitely not spot on. It's nothing short of pathetic! Because when the squad is final on 31st August all those moaning will sit there being smug and saying "told you we needed new players... told you!"

Absolutely spot on post.

Most of the bedwetters on here would struggle to pronounce negotiation. I wouldn't trust them to sit the right way on a toilet seat.

Anyway, back to the point. I suspect that AN and Bozza both have good sauces independent of each other and the fact that they are both confident that these could happen and happen soon, makes me feel quite confident about it. See, it's all about the quality of your 2030549_DW_hp_line_up3.jpg

Well if they are nowhere near signing, or not even had offers accepted, I would expect some sort of "managing expectations" comment at some point - nothing specific, just general. But then we had one not long ago which many seem to have ignored or forgotten, so maybe not just yet.
Yeah my guess was that Barber only spoke about things a week ago, and they don't need to be baby sitting us all each week. Of course I hope these rumours are true, but if not, the club will certainly be working on other signings anyway. The one thing I don't doubt is that the club are putting the effort in. What I have no idea about, is whether they'll get what they want, when they want. If we got a few signings at the beginning of the week it would be amazing.

I'm seriously disappointed in the collective of NSC.

You've had all morning and yet I still have to finish off the gag:-
