    Ok. Here's the explanation.
    As anyone with an ounce of nous realised the deal was always going to go through as long as Swansea got in the strikers they wanted. Our end of the deal was done.
    McBurnie came up for his medical and pictures were taken at that point ready for release when and if the Swansea end of the deal fell into place.
    No conspiracy, no cliques, no veils of mystery. Just everyday commonsense.

    To be fair Nudge I don't think you have to be in a clique to know what was going on regards Mcbunny, I think it was pretty widely reported that the deal was all about done and dusted and the hold up was at swansea's end, I'm guessing all at BFC were pulling their hair out with regards announcing it but were unable to until Swansea gave the go ahead.

    Are you listening - Swansea DID NOT get their strikers !!!
    They missed out on a striker from West Brom.
    Sky Sports then report that Swansea were done for the night and were happy with the deals they had done.
    This report was 90 minutes before Barnsley released news that they had signed McBurnie from Swansea - and then they show him holding up a Barnsley shirt in broard daylight.
    It just dosent add up.

    Especially when you look at earlier posts by a few on here that were clearly wallowing in the knowledge that they knew he'd signed.

    Jeez. Clearly Swansea felt they'd got ENOUGH cover in to allow MCBurnie to go!
    What in God's name is so difficult to comprehend?!

    Broad daylight ? Not the miracle of electricity then.

    Perhaps folk not getting sand in their crack were just being a bit more circumspect and taking Hecky at his word ? Not everything is absolutely brilliant or an absolute disaster.

    I demand the club withdraw McBurnie from international duty and have a photo of him at midnight tonight in a pitch black stadium surrounded by Whitey holding a miners lamp and GG holding glow sticks. Only this reenactment of the moment he officially signed will placate me

    I get the feeling you are not listening. Regardless of whether that pic was taken last night (unlikely as he's in Scotland) or a few weeks ago, the pic you are taking about is PHOTOSHOPPED. It is not a picture of him standing in front of Oakwell in broad daylight. This should give you a clue, exact same picture of him:

    He even looks a bit tired there so you can pretend it's actually midnight last night if you like.

    Having read this whole thread I can only assume that Young Nudger is one massive wind up.

    Either that or he is living proof that you can't educate pork.

    The deal was completed in Scotland, where McBurnie was on international duty. This i'm also sure is where the pictures were taken and then clearly photoshopped. Can people stop being idiots now please? He's signed, I couldnt really give a monkeys toss what Swansea are doing to be honest.
