Landon Donovan will potentially be whispering in Camerons ear that Everton are a better prospect if they are in the running for him, so we have that to contend with as well.
Why do our deals take fucking weeks? Everyone else seems to register interest in a player, put a bid in, get everything agreed and the player signed in a few days. It's frustrating to put it mildly.

If true someone needs there arse kicking for not sealing the deal in respect to personal terms. Don't worry - it's all sorted now! All completed barring the work permit mate?

It's frustrating to put it mildly. and in this case is absolutely NOTHING to do with us holding things up. we had to wait for the MLS to agree that he could sign for us and now have to wait till 3rd August for them to finalise everything....in other words, whoever had gone in for Cameron would be still waiting like we are so for once if we do lose out it actually isn't our fault, it would be down to Everton being quite mercenary and letting someone else get the player interestred in a move, do all the paperwork for the MLS etc. and then jump in at the last minute.as far as i'm aware you can't do pre-contract agreements etc. until the August 3rd thingy anyway as it's not official that he can come to us until then anyway (in other words a pre-contract agreement wouldn't be legally binding in any way)

good to hear, glad its finally done, my only issue is that Inchy's "he will fit straight in" is not nessecarily Pulis's "he will fit straight in"! If you get my drift.

What does he say FM? No sound at work. "Can you tell us about how Geoff Cameron entered your radar?" "I think the deal's been done, which is pleasing. We think he's a player that can cope with Premier League football, we hope he can. We won't know until he can play the games and gets involved with the squad. But he's done exceptionally well over the last year. We've watched him, and he's come with great recommendations. We're hoping he'll come in and be a great asset to the squad" "Do you think he can challenge your central defenders and central midfielders?" "I think he's played full-back as well! At our club, it's always nice to have versatile players. He'll bring that to us"

What does he say FM? No sound at work. Says "lads worked very aaaard" He then updated the fans that he is on the brink of signing Defoe, Jarvis, Johnson and Baines.

Told you all he would end up in a wide defensive position. ;D

Am i the only one who's looking forward to seeing him play at fullback then? ;D Granted, i'm only going on the odd clips i've seen, and testimonies from those who see him regular, but he sounds perfect for the role in a stoke side. Quick, good positional sense, great on the ball, and most importantly 6ft 3 On paper, he ticks all the boxes for the type of fullback we've been crying out for since we got promoted. It may or may not work out, but it sounds worth a go to me

Might be an idea to get Shotton out on loan for the season.
