Perhaps there is a problem with the medical or something.

I hope not, but if there is, I'd much rather we found the problem now than in the middle of the season when is out through knee-knack or whatever.

On the other hand, exactly this time five years ago we missed out on Haangeland over a failed medical and he hasn't exactly turned out badly for Fulham. Presumably had a less ropey injury record, granted.

I have a vision of puzzled doctors looking at x-rays saying "well that's just Gravel & Cement with a little water, does this make him stronger?!"

Laursen was injured for much of his time at villa and i guess its wise to err on the side of caution in these deals but i really hope this move goes through as vlaar is exactly the sort of player needed.

call me daft, but could it be down to  tomorrow being in a different tax/accounting period? Just a thought!

That seems like a surprisingly likely reason.

Is it likely that a tax or accounting period starts in August?

as i understand it companies vary depending on when they were formed, vat periods are every 3 months . Didn't randy take over in august? If so, then yes, tomorrow would be  in another year's accounts. If anybody knows different, then i apologise i'm only having a guess

Isn't tax the reason we initially only loaned Davies from the stripies?

I am hearing from my ITK , the thing holding it all up is the just vehicle that Ron wants in his Villa contract as Lerner does not really want to see it in the club car park but Ron absolutely loves it.

Fuckwittedness was the reason we bought him.
