Anyone else a bit worried?

Me. He's been signing "tomorrow" for the last three days. How long does he need to write his name?

I will admit I'm starting to stress a little bit.

If this does go through I will start to wonder about a possible sale. Not that we have seen a big summer net buy but we're buying a hell of a lot of potential, including one fro Barcelona who has excited a lot of better informed people, to the point that we have suddenly in one summer managed to put together the best managerial, coaching, scouting, and contract negotiating network, in the space of a couple months. Either Sherwood, or Fox, are absolute geniuses to date or the players and network referred to know something about the club's near future direction.

It makes you think when you see it written like that. I would add though that the scouting network aspects have been going on for about a year. Fox talked about it in one of his interviews and I really liked the sound of what was going on off the pitch. With how poor we were on the pitch, it just made me more desperate for us to stay up so that we could get to this point. It would have been horrible to be in a position to do this sort of thing but having already dropped a division.

Sherwood gets the credit for assembling the coaching side and working with O'Reilly on the recruitment side. Fox gets the credit for appointing Sherwood (though he could have done it sooner) and overseeing everything else. Lerner should get credit too for learning from his mistakes, appointing Fox and O'Reilly and ensuring funds are in place.

I'm pretty confident he'll sign. He may have already done so.

I know it's the Daily Mail, but they state deal will be complete within 24 hours. That was 7 hours ago. They say he's been at Bodymoor today. I think the club are keeping this under wraps until tomorrow before the game; maximum exposure for Sky. A bit unfair on us if they read this thread!

I don't care when they unveil him as long as he's signed.

Was in the ticket office 4pm ish and asked the girl behind the counter if Traore had been seen anywhere. She casually answered "yes he is at Bodymoor" Think he will be paraded before the game ......
