The general opinion seems to be that two decent players are about to join - Peeters said he would like them to play at Pompey - presumably, this is now unlikely. Having spoken with Ketts earlier, he suggested that the club might make an announcement on Sunday at the funday... Personally, I'd rather know now and have them play tomorrow than make a big deal of it on Sunday. Either way, let's hope these players arrive! COYA

Misleading title and completely pointless thread. Got excited for nothing

Why is it pointless? You could've answered it with an opinion.. Still, at least you got excited!

From the title, one assumed you had info on who the new player(s) were or that you'd seen a statement from the club with a date and time. Alas, I got neither

To be fair on Andy there isn't a players name mentioned. I got sort of half excited, but not enough to complain.

Apologies then boys - I was just trying to seek opinions on if the club might wait to announce something on Sunday when I'd rather they pulled their finger out before then. If I new anything, I'd say.

No worries mate, sorry for a hostile-sounding reply!
For what it's worth, my opinion is that they wouldn't announce signings at the fun day.

No need to jump on his back guys, it's obviously frustrating as we know we need a couple more in and the earlier we get them the more time to bond with eachother, allegedly not coming to warm the bench either so maybe a bit of quality coming. Exciting season ahead methinks should these signings be what we need.

I think everybody is reading CL and getting carried away because somebody claims to be in the know. It comes across to me that the person doing the talking over there isn't but knows somebody that is which is exactly the situation on here the only difference being there are no desperate threads on here full of people besides themselves wanting to know who the two people are.
For the record Peeters hoped that the two players would be signed today ready to start at Portsmouth tomorrow because it would have been the same side kicking off at Brentford next week. The plan then was to have them both involved and then show them off on Sunday which hasn't quite happened. I don't know the reasons why before anybody asks.

Cheers Reams - I hadn't read anything on CL - it was just a random Friday question from me after Ketts put a possibility in my mind - let's hope it happens soon and the club aren't holding back until Sunday

I would have thought that the club would want them signed up and ready to play tomorrow, presumably there is a hitch or issue with the paper work that has caused a delay, let's hope it's neither terminal or delayed till late next week.

Andy Delort from Tours possibly. According to some quarters agreed terms yesterday but this is not from normal source .... He will cost around 3 to 5mill and is also wanted by A Madrid who he wants to join ??

Too good for us not good enough for Atletico Madrid so he will end up somewhere in between like Standard Liege or Southampton.

I have never seen him play, but is scoring twenty goals in the French second division that impressive, considering apart from a couple of teams the French top division is hardly renowned for its quality.
Not a chance in hell Madrid would want him.

At a guess 2-3 million, but most likely "undisclosed".

Just heard that there could possibly be an announcement about Delort this afternoon - At the open day at The Valley?
Three clubs have met his personal terms but as I understand it he is keen on us having seen the training ground and The Valley. Tours have only allowed him to speak to other clubs before they negotiate a price for him. It is believed that three clubs are in for him, one in France and two in England but he was in London yesterday.

Surely we're a more attractive prospect than Brentford? Why? They've got a lot of money, a new stadium coming and are newly promoted so will have a lot of momentum and ambition. Wouldn't say we're more attractive than them.

In terms of club stature, history and fanbase we are greeniejunior and by some way too.
