I just wanted to make the point that on no occassion has he said that tomorrow was the D day for 7 signings he said the 4th was the Deadline and that we would be announcing signings after that. All our players have clauses in their contrcat about gaining permission before they make personel public statements about departure etc during a season and its reasonable to expect others at other Clubs to have the same. There were reports on the other Rovers message Board of one or two of the best supporters in the world booing certain players after the game yesterday because they had announced they were leaving, so its easy tos ee why players like McDonnell etc don't want to commit anyway!
But the 4th isn't the deadline, the 1st is isn't it? AP has made his own announcing deadline, which happens to fall the day after season passes go on sale. If you're not going to announce anything on the 4th, why mention the date at all?
