    Announcing Ephestion & Knasmullner until they are both over the line. Purely so they can use the words 'Double Swoop' on the official site..

    Maybe they both want the same squad number and are currently playing a game of Monopoly or Chess to see who gets their shirt?

    If we sign the required 5 goalkeepers, the Austrian and French lads and Fletcher, that would make it an Octoswoop.

    Well, I predicted we'd bring in three players on the window's final day. Knowing my appalling record with football predictions, I should've said there'd be none. I take full responsibility if we don't sign anyone today.

    Or it's usually about now that the club put a question mark on the site saying breaking news, then announce one of the academy lads has extended...

    They'll be done but will be announced any time from now onwards. Media team will wait until the highest number of folk are packing up at work, getting home, on the bus/train/shitter and looking on our website and twitter feed and the rest of it.

    That way, the clubs media channels get the most 'traffic' or highest 'reach' rather than BBC, The Star etc, and so our stats make us more attractive to advertisers.

    Welcome to the 21st century peeps.

    I would imagine that some of the deals are done. But the club are waiting until a bit later for “maximum exposure” to them.

    Maybe if all the signings are crap it might be a poopaswoop.
