Will Grabban agree personal terms with the Albion?

[Footsoldier]

It's not an opinion. It's a guess. Just my opinion.

What ever.

 

[Blues Rock DJ]

rumour down here is that as he's too late for tomorrow's game, he'll join us after the B'mouth v Liverpool game (as he can't play for us against Port Vale)

 

[PoG]

Already signed

 

[greyseagull]

I'm confident that it will happen by the end of the weekend, at the latest

I very much doubt BHA would wait about until after the cup game. What happens if he got injured?

A game in which he will pull a hamstring and end up on the treatment table for a month...... I can see it now.

Better he trains with our squad surely, even if he can't play tomorrow.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

This. The Upson signing wasn't announced until late on the Friday, and I seem to remember the same with Orlandi. Both were in the squad the following day.

Announcing a deal before midday also gives Derby an insight if he will be included in our matchday squad and their training practice plans today altered accordingly.

Isn't that what happened with Ulloa? He trained with us till he got clearance to play?

 

[Twinkle Toes]

I voted yes, then read this post. Oh ****, well that's that then, old Harry will flash some notes in front of his face and he'll sit on the bench at Loftus Road.

Back to Cardiff then?

But 'es a triffick lad; wiv a triffick attitude! Uncle 'Arry will make 'im feel like 'es come 'ome, Squire.

Luvvverly jubberly.

with all due respect, don't think umbrella man will be concerned too much whether Grabban is in the squad or not.

 

[chucky1973]

if he signs he signs, if he don't, he don't.
Simple

Apparently he's on his way back down to Bournemouth presumably via 'arrays gaff on millionaires row in Poole where he will meet up with the great man and not be released until he's signed on the dotted line!!

You wouldn't go to Bournemouth via Arry's gaff in Poole, unless you had a very dodgy satnav.

Maybe he fancied a trip on the Poole chain ferry

 

[tinycowboy]

I've said "yes", but my real position is "I don't know".

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

I've said "yes", but my real position is "I don't know".

And neither do most, if not all of us. We're just giving an opinion based on not very much at all.
For what it's worth, I think things would have been wrapped up yesterday if he was coming.

 

[Hiney]

Firstly, what has that got to do with it...... and
Secondly, I would guess it is elided (I think that is the right word, without looking it up.) Instead of saying it as two words - South Hampton, with a break between the two and not dropping the H on the Hampton, the two words just "grew" in to each other, and one of the H's was dropped.

South Hamtun in the 11th Century.

The 'Sandbanks ferry' you mean - just a bit of inside local knowledge for you Started many long sunday run over the Purbecks from there, quite a few with a hangover...

I voted for yes, still think he'll sign for youse.
