Could be a case of "Say Hello, Wave Goodbye" then.

That is one hell of a niche joke, Vic!

If true then it’s embarrassing from CR and she needs to pipe down until players have actually signed.
Didn't we have the same comments when Maynard signed for Plymouth at the last minute?

No we actually signed Maynard. My point is “IF” it doesn’t come to anything it’s embarrassing

I'm only guessing it was O'Neill. The point is, whoever it was CR indicated it was imminent and it clearly didn't happen, as its several days since CR's announcement. I agree it is embarrassing. Maybe something will happen tomorrow.
Im pleased with the signings so far. Maynard is a great signing and so is Cook. Walker, Khan, and Preston were also similar quality signings. So forgive me for not going overboard regarding our benefactors at this stage.kevin kents tasce wrote:I'm glad I wasn't in the trenches with some of you lot.
Stop whining all the time. Last week a load of folk were doubting the Maynard signing. If the Radford's haven't proven themselves to you by now they never will.

The point I and others are making is perhaps, CR in particular, should tone it down a bit until the player has actually signed. It's reminds me of the Jim Bowen scenario "just look who you could have " signed

If nothing else it’s amusing watching people get so dramatic but more importantly it gets the MTFC brand out there. People called the video cringeworthy when it was deliberately tongue in cheek.
We are surely the envy of pretty much every league 1 & league 2 club and probably a decent number of clubs in the Championship simply because of the investment, hard work and determination to succeed of our owners.
From Conference strugglers to winning that horrid hell hole of a league, consolidating our place in League 2 to promotion challengers in the last two seasons you’d think people would be a bit more chilled and trusting of the Radford’s.
I for one am certainly looking forward to next season.

Me too. And what’s it matter if Carolyn likes flash her Gucci?

Exactly, dummies were spat, toys were thrown & the Maynard signed, so your point has no validity at all.
A signing 'soon' may mean before the week is out. Just because a bunch of petulant cry babies want 'soon' to mean in the next 5 minutes, doesn't mean a signing has fallen through.
Don't get me wrong there are times CR would do well to tone it down a bit, in my opinion, but the point is the majority of the time when CR says a signing is about to happen it does.

I don't think league 1 clubs are envious of us, simply because they are already in league 1 and we are league 2. Theyve made it, we havn't. We are very lucky to have JR and CR, but despite all their efforts we start another season in league 2.Showaddywaddy wrote:I’m sure the Radford’s are calculated in not only getting the deals done but also in how they announce them.
