I know it has been a full on day in some parts of the club, but it hardly impacts on doing an interview video and taking a few stills. Even if the handshake with the boss is last on the list surely they could have knocked something out in 24 hours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Feels like we’ve been waiting, one way it another, for stuff all day. Only thing, bar an anomaly in the medical, which springs to my (hopefully unnecessarily worrying…) worrying mind that may require a manager sit down talk, pre-signing, is some sort of guaranteed minutes/first choice conversation. Doubt that would be Howe’s kind of thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt that would be Howe’s kind of thing. That's because you don't understand the complexities involved in getting a signing done. We know it's happening, nobody promised us a time.

Hanshithispantz Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if the lad we seen climbing out of the famous black people carrier was actually a stunt double, and the real Sven Botman was in Milan, signing a contract with Maldini as we speak.

Dr Jinx Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 It’s fairly straight forward. The medical was fine, he wouldn’t have been at SJP afterwards otherwise. Contract also done, that was Dan’s role in it. Eddie Howe will be up to give an interview on this one as it’s a significant signing.. a coup as you would. So they’ll make a bigger deal out of this one than the previous. Video team will have most of it put together and will be splicing in bits as we speak.

toontownman Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 The actual hold up is flying Maldini over here to announce he has joined our staff. Revealed alonside Botman. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Any players in our current team that Botman would know or have played with? We don't have any Dutch players obviously so perhaps we need to get him a Dutch friend in next as priority? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the attitude to have. Target 8th, have ambition of 4th. Yes, we might have rotten luck with injuries and come 10th. On the other hand, we might not. Biggest challenge I see us having, which I don't see people talking about, is the fact we're now a known power. Teams will be happier playing for a draw against us where we could take advantage of them aiming for 3 points last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
