The rules state that it is 12 noon the working day before the game is scheduled to play.

Whether that means today or Monday though, that's open to interpretation.

Subject to the provisions of Rule M.1, the deadline for receipt by the Secretary of all duly completed documents required by these Rules to effect the registration of a Player shall be 12noon on the last Working Day before the date of the first League Match in which the Club making the application intends him to play

Im speakin to my source at the club at about 10am :) will post if there is any news on adebayor or diarra :) And was told the medicals for loan signings are slightly differnt to normal and alot quicker if the club want them to be so deal/deals could be done by 12 in time for utd but even if they are both players hvnt had a pre season so will both prob start on the bench.....

The game is on Monday, so the working day before Monday won't be Monday. I don't really see how it's open to interpretation.

Why am I the only one that thinks that we'll be disappointed today.

I can see the Ade/Lass deals dragging on into next week.

If the ITK last night is to be believed, and we were meeting City officials last night to thrash out the Adebayor deal, then it was surely to ensure the deal was finalised to allow us to register the player today so that he is eligible for Monday night?
If we dont have the player available for Monday then we are idiots, and City are fools for not seeing the potential impact the player could have against their title rivals.

Archie on SO regarding Adebayor and Diarra :

Not wishing to contradict anyone but neither deal is finalised yet...

very likely and very confident but up to last night after the game neither had been agreed formally

When was the last time there was a press conference arranged for a signing anyway? A few lines on in the OS is good enough.

I will wager my username that we announce a signing/loan deal today. If I'm wrong you may call me spockerfannypackface :up:

EDIT: wager withdrawn after reading Archie's ITK!

Ade + Lass would be a massive step in the right direction for us so I can understand the excitement on here but I won't believe any of it until I hear an official statement from the club!

Too late. Any anyway, I prefer Zimmy's bitch :lol:

Not often you get Archie and Roger Morgan giving conflicting views. I'm inclined to agree with Archie, and it certainly adds weight to wpd659's credentials.

I'm wagering my ST on something being announced today. They will be NO press conference though

Bold statement...great to hear tho...put me at ease slightly.

I'm away from a PC til 12pm, expecting plenty of excited folks in here when I return :pray:

I'm sort of with you there spurslenny except I won't be disappointed as I take all ITK with a pinch of salt and get excited only when the club release an official statement to confirm a big signing.

Not really :shrug: has his source been verified by the mods?

I just refuse to believe we had a press conference arranged and then it was cancelled 75%.

Anyway Archie's info sounds extremely plausibile and yet still positive.

Got a sneaky feeling the deals are taking so long because we want to announce along with Modric to Chelsea to ease the anger from fans.. Lets hope not though!

Today is the day!!!
Without doubt.
Even Hotspur must be feeling this one :)

Not really feeling it atm....seems we want to announce both deals together so if one is a little more complicated than the other it will hold everything up. The ade one for instance sounds very detailed, hopefully patience is the key but might be the weekend before we hear much.

Question: If indeed these deals were done yesterday (although contradicted by Archie) would an announcement need to be made to the stock exchange first? And is that the case for all signings?

Ok i know that's two questions Eek
