Whitley mag Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Howe is never going to say it’s done until officially signed off. Romano has got the jump on this one and it’ll be announced fairly swiftly I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s right that the deal isn’t complete but that isn’t the case until everything is signed and the medical complete. It would be a really rare occurrence for Romano to post a ‘here we go’ if the deal wasn’t essentially done barring something unforeseen.

He's a cunt, but he actually does get most things right (barring the absolute shitshow he had with the takeover). All the local journos have direct contact with the club. He's still a cunt though.

He’s literally just said ‘nowt happening’ and then had to scramble about when it turns out we’re (at the very least) in very advanced discussions over a £30m move for a player.

Sorry, but you're framing it to your liking but what you're saying isn't true. Our manager has just confirmed the deal isn't agreed, that is all there is to it. You're essentially saying you trust Romano over Howe which is crazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordinho Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Well it is possible for Eddie and Romano to be correct. There’s no way the club say anything until medical is done and contracts signed. Just have to look at the delay in the club saying anything on Botman for days whilst clearance was sought. They eventually had to say something to calm the panic brigade. Looks to me like both parties have reached agreement but admin and medical to sort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he was having a medical there would be pictures of him at the ground arriving for his medical as there were with Botman, Pope etc. People hate Edwards so they're not applying any logic to the situation. Regardless of his past hit rate, on this occasion he was right and Romano was wrong. Howe has just confirmed it.

There's nuance to this and I think you know that. One thing's for sure now though, Romano's either full of shit OR he's a tap-in merchant, but he's definitely not both. Contradicting Brighton (Cucarella) and Howe (João Pedro) are the exact opposite of tap-ins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonBez comesock Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 We all know it’s not done as he hasn’t had his medical or signed Romano was saying it has been agreed. obviously Howe won’t say its done …until it’s officially done Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm taking the word of a high ranking club employee, who is on the record as saying nothing is agreed yet. There is only one way that can be framed. It probably will get agreed in the coming days, but Edwards will still have been right. Regardless, it doesn't matter. We'll probably sign the kid so let's hope he turns out to be a player.

Howe has always refused to comment on specific players previously, but has now given a direct update on Pedro. That in itself is more telling than the actual words that came from Howes mouth IMO. Even if it was all done, Howe isn’t going to break the news himself in a pre match press conference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
