Idrissa Gueye - now gone

[TheMalandro]

Do you really fret about these things?

Another fraught night wrestling the duvet. Idressa hasn't signed yet.

You give that impression!

[OCD]

It's almost as if the club don't realise there are internet forums where people analyse in depth every movement and non-movement. The French sources and some of the better journalists say it's done - for the sake of my sanity, I'm happy to go along with that.

Ive never heard of him but welcome.

Reasons for no announcement

1) Deal cannot be considered complete until work permit granted.

2) We are still in due diligence and need agreement from prospective buyer for any significant  financial transaction.

3) He failed the medical and we are giving him an extra  week or so to let his blood pressure settle/grow another bollock/other formality

it all seems reasonable to me.

4) The medical was done on the Friday and the press secretary etc. aren't working on the weekend

5) he's going V festival, can't hold pen til mid July

[PeterWithesShin]

6) He's stuck on Spaghetti Junction.

7) He forgot to pack his lucky jumper

It's gone too far for 2. We have committed money to Lille who are in some financial difficulty. Based on money coming from us they would have been able to pacify creditors. So a financial commitment has been made.

I saw him in the Shakespeare Room at the Library today. He said was going to read the full works before signing.

He's stuck in Operation Stack

[edgysatsuma89]

He's having the extra bollock he grew from point 3 removed.

Were coders  being cheeky when that eight numeric and bracket together  became a sunshades emoji or was it just a terrible oversight?

[Chinchilla Bathhouse]

He's read Gregg Evans article in the Mail and has had second thoughts.

[LeeB]

He's read Gregg Evans article in the Mail and has had second thoughts.

Surely that article would only encourage him to sign, knowing that once he's done here he can make the step up to becoming an occaisional goalkeeper for no marks like Hull and the stripeys.
