So, reading the last few pages on here , he’s signed but the club are waiting to announce, he’s not signed and doing a Pritchard, he’s signed and will be going out on loan for the rest of the season, he’s signed but should be straight into the first team squad.
Confused?
You will be.

Good point. I have made that bit up
In fairness to the reporter, he said it'll be announced this week, and I let my imagination run away with me. That's what happens when there's no game to concentrate on.
Why can't we just be playing football? Bloody winter breaks.

I thought the deal was done 4 days ago as per Fab the fraud…!
Fabrizio?

Is there any evidence at all that Bloom is doing anything to upset RDZ ? Quite the reverse. If Barco is loaned (and all Naylor said blandly was that it’s part of the thinking) I doubt it would be against RDZ wishes. And this from Brian Owen offers a more nuanced explanation of the idea that RDZ said he needed “3 or 4 players” oft quoted in this thread.

David Ornstein in The Athletic also confirmed it.

I guess the telegraph have just confirmed , like FR , that the medical is also done. No idea what’s delaying the announcement but I guess player being away on international duty and most of the club away in Dubai has complicated timings .

BARCODE DOES NOT EXIST. I'm telling you, this is a cunning plan to get the Falklands back.

Am I missing something - the athletic article says he’s set for a medical not that he’s signed…? Everyone knew that - Fab tries to beat the others (having not broken the news) by saying it’s done when it’s obviously going to happen.. Thsts what annoys me and many. He obvs has some good contacts but not one for every single big transfer as he claims and guesses….

I think “everyone” knew he was set for a medical because he reported that as well (as did others). He’s also shared the contract details - bit harder to “guess” .

So Newcastle have the sixth equal biggest squad in the Prem yet don't seem to stop moaning about squad size and injuries.

I would be seriously disappointed with that. At least let RDZ have a look first

Are you talking about the Athletic man or Fab? The Athletic man would be way more trustworthy.
Contract details is purely 4 or 5 years with us and usually a year option so can mask as either - so Dab def hasn’t nailed anything…

Fair enough you’re not a fan to say the least ! . I’d urge those sceptical to have a listen to this - (Lineker and co interviewing him at end of last window) - before arguing that Romano is not trustworthy and “guesses” .
Absolutely this.

I will do. Admittedly I just find him arrogant with his ‘as I reported 2 days ago’ shit when it’s usually appeared somewhere else beforehand. I’d be surprised if this deal was signed 4 days ago as he claims and not announced yet.
I also heard him on the phone to the Brentford fan and felt he was full of himself and rude. ‘I work 20 hours a day’ - no you don’t mate - you prob did that once and now use it as a line!
