That's annoying. I wonder if all the wrangling has been to try and avoid that by using some Baldy & The Crook special dodgy deal.
It's like coppers saying they waited 2 weeks before they arrested the Costa crooks in Spain to make sure they got the right man.Trust me, I wouldn't be surprised if this was actually the case

If we get Porro which looks likely, I don’t want any of the usual Spurs shit we do in integrating them in slowly. I want him starting immediately against Mancity at home. No Doherty. No Royal. Get this guy started. Every other club buys players and starts them almost immediately.
You joke, but I genuinely believe we start our summer business later than most teams is because it saves 2 or 3 months of wages.
Say we sign 3 players on June 1st who don't play until August 19th on an average £80k a week each
That's £80k x 3 x 12 weeks = £2,880,000 saving
Porto wants to win his last ever

Reports suggesting the deal includes a provision to allow Porro to play for Sporting against Porto on Saturday, so it's unlikely he'll be available for City.
I couldn't roll my RRs until I was into my teens. It made me sound like a right stupid guiri.
El perro de San Roque no tiene rabo porque Ramon Ramirez se lo ha cortado.
That was a nightmare tongue-twister for me. LOL
Nah nah nah nah nah surely when he's signed and registered he's ours and he can't actually play for anyone else unless we're delaying that just for one last match.
In which case I don't trust Chelsea not to do what we did to Everton. Even if they don't want him they can't help themselves.
Funding the immoral Saudi state, I hope our über-virtuous fanbase protest and reject the signing.
Surely he will start v Preston. :contethumb:

Would be nice if he scored the winner against them on his debut.
No chance this is true, but even if it was true, why would he not be able to sign on Sunday and play a whole week later?
Based on our last outing against them and the fact we're better away from home, I don't think 1 player makes a difference.
Yeah, brain fart. Had Man City in mind as our next fixture... completely forgot about PNE.
Surprised we didnt do an expensive loan with an option to buy to get around that, I suppose the risk is City could just buy him back if we did do something like that.
