Like there was with Carson on the official site, and if the deal was completely dead there would have been a statement already especially as they confirmed a deal was close. And finally how come radio stoke discovered the deal was off before pulis because he said "i don't know, i havn't spoken the tony (scholes) yet" on SSN.  There is still time DON'T PANIC! |

Radio Stoke actually played an interview with Scholes though that was pretty clear
"This is not a signing that we'll be making"

There is still this straw to clutch too and the fact Radio Stoke are about as reliable as Hackett! So it still could happen!

your forgetting that Scholes came out and said the deal wasnt happening on radio stoke and how he went on to say its not all a loss and the journey wasnt wasted etc etc

I'm sorry but are people not reading this : " Radio Stoke actually played an interview with Scholes though that was pretty clear
"This is not a signing that we'll be making" Now are you telling me he is now blagging ? Seems pretty clear to me  Scholes quote was AFTER the TP interview wasn't it ? |

if i was trying to sign zigic, i would lock him in a room with a plate of bacon,cheese, tomatoe oatcakes, listening to pottermouth, that would do it.

With Carson we had an official offer accepted that was reported in the press and confirmed by the club. They had to make an official staement when it went pear shaped. In this case, as far as i am aware, there has been no official statement concerning offers - accepted or otherwise. There is therefore no real need for a statement to the contrary. Lets face it, most of the hype over this deal has been built up on this board fuelled by posters with 'sources'. |

surely though Pulis and scholes should be contact regarding the transfers negotiations, and how did Radio stoke know anything before Pulis knew nothing.

The only reason we officially announced the Carson deal was off via text message was to preempt WBA announcing he'd chose them over us, it was a PR stunt to make it look like we had turned him down rather than the other way around. Tony "The Tan" Scholes made it pretty clear the deal for Zigic was off and we're looking elsewhere.  |

It is strange that only radio stoke have said the deal is dead and its only them who have a soundbite of scholes saying its dead i know im clutching at straws here but maybe they have mislead us about this as they may of recorded that interview before today. Then with them saying we are looking elsewhere and us not believing them they have thought 'oh we best find something what will prove we're right to keep our credibility up' as in that soundbite you never here Scholes mention Zigic's name. That could of been done ages ago. You'd also think that Pulis would of been the first person to know that the deal wasnt happening yet he went on tv after radio stoke announced it and didnt say it was dead.
Plus why havent the sentinel put up a breaking news aritcle about us pulling out of the deal they would usually do that if they could confirm that we aint going to sign him. By the way if Knowles is online and reads this then have you heard anymore of spinksy?
I know im clutching at straws but i dont believe we've heard the last of this yet.
Also what time did all the media go home? As if the deal was off then why didnt they just announce it to them before they left to clear things up

Unless its mindgames to make valencia agree to our transfer/loan offer |

This deal is no more!
It has ceased to be!
It's expired and gone to meet its maker! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it
rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed it to the perch it'd be pushing up the daisies! It's metabolic processes are now 'istory! It's off the twig! 'It's kicked the bucket, shuffled off the mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! This is an ex-deal!

"it wasn't a total loss and journey not wasted etc"... another potnetial signing from Zaragoza?? Why does he have to raise our hopes by adding that ?, we know none of those player (Ayala, Milito, Garcia) will give us a second glance  , i think it's time to concentrate on players who we actually have hope of signing, it's all very exciting to be linked with these players but unless we're going into it willing to fork out big money and meet the big wage demands it's a pointless exercise. |

So you're saying that this deal has gone to heaven and is swigging brandy with George Burley as Stoke manager and Tino Asprilla with George Reynolds at Darlington?

Maybe it wasn't Scholes and they got someone who sounds like him to say it  |

Maybe it wasn't Scholes and they got someone who sounds like him to say it tbh it doesnt really sound like scholsey does it Maybe im just an eternal optimist or just clutching at any straws i possibly can but theres just something that says this deal is not totally dead it may be right at this moment but with all the media being at the club today then you would of assumed they would of said something regarding it being off and not just it coming from the local radio station who as said before on another thread are not always right with there storys. I really expected SSN to have found out they always seem to find out about everything yet they seem to still think its on |
