Great news- I hope it's bang on 7 as sky have a soccer special at 7 30 and I wanna watch our press conference rather than listen to cottee and walsh droning on about west ham and spurs. Excellent to have darren bent - welcome to our club dazza!

Superb. Makes you wonder about the delayed press conference though. Surely not another one?

Charlie Adam ?
That thought crossed my mind but if it was him Holloway would have been all over the media saying how unfair it all is for his best player to go to a 'half-arsed club'!

Stunning stuff - this has superseded even the most optimistic of my hopes for this window. 

Well done to all concerned!!

Unless it's started going dark a lot later in Brum these days, it was clearly all finished much earlier in the day.

Conspiracy theory of additional Adam/Keane/Messi/Palmer/Bull signing

"To mark the signing, 1,000 web exclusive tickets of just £15 are being made available.

Tickets are for Trinity Upper Wings only. "

Nice offer for anyone who hasn't already got their ticket.

Hmmmm, press conference delayed for another hour and a half according to the Twitter journos. Wonder what the hold up could be?

Messi's plane has been delayed.

What so  Young, Bent, Keane and Messi.  Now that sounds like a Tory MP's wet dream.

I think this will do a lot to improve the mood of the other players. Like Mccarthy said its the sort of thing big clubs do, maybe some of our players had forgotten what a big club they were at. This should help remind them.

Bruce sounds well pissed off about it all - wonderful, anyone see robbie keane say there was never a move on to blues and that he hasn't a clue what they are talking about yesterday- said he thought they were just seeking publicity.
