Anyone know what the hold up is with Aribo?

gmartin - I have asked that same question a few times. DR says that it is a done deal. If that is so then it should be out there. Just wish we could be updated. Of all the 'signings' this summer Aribo is the one that excites me the most.

Fingers crossed even Bridgeton cross (ed) if it helps!

Believe it or not the newspaper are not the ones who finalise transfer signings. It’s the clubs and their agents. Have a bit of patience people.

BLUE89 don't be so naive. The media are heavily involved from the start. They decide where a player goes and for how much, they sometimes know before the player and club involved that's how good they are. When the deal is done the chief sport editor then has to ratify it before the player can sign, at that point the media can write a story. The player and club find out if the deal is successful the following day when they buy the paper. In recent years they have asked Jackie Macnamara for advice on some big money deals and when he is away with the United Nations then Chris Sutton is called in, although he is getting hard to get a hold of when he's working at GCHQ. When all that fails and the deal is 10 mill plus then the red phone is picked up at great expense to access the deal maker and breaker Mr Tom English. Who New!

Now who would have thought that!

I suspected something was going on and it is no surprise that McNamara and Sutton are so heavily involved.

Where does Keevins sit in the set up?
