Claudio Fannieri Posted 25 August Posted 25 August I am merely sharing what I have been told by the journalist who broke the story, he was all set to sign in time for him to be involved tonight that was the plan, it has been delayed and it sits at our end. my comment about dragging our heels stands, especially when we need to shift out 5 or 6 and bring in 3 or 4 more in a week to stand any chance to be successful this season. 4

It’s basically said it be done for Ipswich on the when your smiling podcast but it was telling the Jack Rafferty sounded surprised. I’d imagine the journalist understands that this is done but doesn’t understand UK immigration and employment laws. It takes time. Edited 25 August by Lesta Legend 1

Bristric took about 1 week from when it broke to signing. the club will be fully aware that the window closes next Tuesday it’s not like they’ve left things to the last minute before is it 👀 To be fair, I saw some reports saying all the documents had been done and it's just the medical left. I think it will get announced today or tomorrow. It is more important that he has had some sessions with the team before MK Dons, rather than throwing him into a cup game straight away... 2
LCFCCKEANO Posted 25 August Posted 25 August I really hope whilst the medical team/permits are going we have started to work on other things, we do not have the time for a signing or sale every 2/3 days, we need to get moving

AKCJ Posted 25 August Posted 25 August Has this progressed? Loads of talk yesterday that he was gonna start tonight, assume that was bollocks?

Depends what the deal is, could be something outside the clubs control.

Might be wrong but don’t we have to apply and appeal and be rejected on both for a WP before we can apply an Esc place to a player? May just be that process has moved a bit slower

Not doubting what you said but highly unlikely a Finnish journalist will understand the process for us to get a player in who needs an ESC. Edited 25 August by coolhandfox

A cup game where we will get a thumping
Tuna Posted 25 August Posted 25 August Would expect him to be 3rd choice behind a pair of more experienced centre backs.

lanefox Posted 25 August Posted 25 August Yeah we ain't dropping 2mill in League one on someone to be an understudy 1
adam Posted 25 August Posted 25 August Risky business if we are chucking him straight into the first 11. Unlikely he will be ready for league one.

We need them, I want Okoli and Souttar plus Faes sold/out.

It's more Okoli and Souttar as a pair don't work. I think someone that can actually pass and won't shit themselves every time they get a ball will actually help someone like Souttar. Bin Okoli & Faes off and bring another CB with Ilari
adejo92 Posted 25 August Posted 25 August Stick with Okoli & Souttar tonight. With a bit of luck one will either get injured or be too exhausted for Saturday and we'll be forced to make the change. Couldn't give a fvck about tonight's result, should just forfeit it.
