Fabricio Coloccini signed from Deportivo La Coruña on 5 year deal


Recommended Posts

To be honest, it's probably illegal for the club to sell something with his name on it if he's not actually ours. So you'd hope this plus Ashley's shirt plus Depor confirmation plus Gutierrez' endorsement of him = he's signed.

 

Cue panic becuase it's still not confirmed by tomorrow though.

 

Not illeagal in the slightest, how many names on shirt have you seen that aren't players for the club, you can put anything you like on the back of your shirt.

 

 

yeah thats true, i remember a man city fan got fowler then the deal collapsed

 

 

I'll explain more slowly for you. I'm sure you can go to a LOCAL NON-OFFICIAL SHOP and get whatever you want put on the back - moron, or gimp, for instance, combined with a number of your choosing - but in the OFFICIAL CLUB SHOP it would surely, surely not be legal to offer a standardized name and number of a player we didn't have? That's why, although at at the shop you may be able to request 10 KAKA on your Newcastle top (although you'd look like an idiot), if you order ONLINE THROUGH THE OFFICIAL CLUB SHOP who are offering the names and numbers of players, they aren't going to offer 2 COLOCCINI as one of our OFFICIAL PLAYERS TO GET ON THE BACK OF YOUR SHIRT if he didn't play for us. This is why, when you try and order a shirt online, you can't get players who don't play for us. I don't know if you have noticed, but all the players on that list play for us.

 

I hope this clears things up.

On the OnlINe Club Shop you can get Keegan 7 and last time i checked no one called Keegan played for us at number 7.

 

You can get whatever you like put on at the club shop as well.

 

 

I was in the club shop before the valencia game and the guy in front tried to get guttierez on his shirt. cue the shopboy telling him ''we cant let you have that because he hasnt been given a squad number yet'' the bloke then goes ''eh well how about its my name and i want it on my shirt?'' shop assistant replies '' well i suppose you could do that but you wont be able to get it for the standard price that the ones on the official squad list are''

Seeing as this has shot to 161 pages that I cannot be arsed to scroll back through, HAS HE SIGNED? in an official sense?

 

Yep, club held a press conference about 3 hours ago. Got him for a knocked down price too, which is good. No firm mention of another signing, but Keegan did hint at 3 more players coming in in the next week.

He has signed. A new contract for addidas sponsorship. So far he is yet to sign for us, rumours that Sunderland have bid 45 million for his left toe.

Do we actually need his registration to have arrived to name him in our squad? Can't we name him but then just not play him if his registration doesn't turn up on time?
