The Indian cricket guy from yesterday is saying it's all sorted? Did a bit more searching on this guy So it looks like he used to write for City Xtra on freelance, an independant fan page that posts news, pics, game reports etc... (think they were posted a couple pages ago?)
LinkedIn page also states he does football in addition to cricket reporting, he's also done City press conferences So maybe he has someone at Man City who he knows possibly?
Yeah, doubt he's making it up He seems to be in the Man City Delhi Supporters club too |

There isn't a team in the league that wouldn't want this loan for a season, so if true it's a real coup.

The Indian cricket guy from yesterday is saying it's all sorted? If true, wonder what the bonus clause is? Do we get him for another year on loan as a Premier League striker, or do they get first refusal on some our better players 😂😂. More likely we'd have to pay Man City an extra £1 million loan fee for this season if we get promoted at the end of it I wouldn't object to that and it is the sort of clause that is often put in deals for permanent transfers so no reason why it shouldn't be put in a loan deal. If we got promoted an extra £1 million loan fee would be the least of our problems, with our income going up by £100 million ish. |

I think that’s a nice little extra for him not us or Man City

As someone above said , a wanted man it seems and be a great signing and coup. Imagine Delap and Campbell both fit in the long run. Quite tasty Seems to be too many rumours not to have some legs in it. |

I’m from Leek, and go uni in derby and work at the Nando’s in the intu, Liam Delap came in with a group of mates a few weeks back, I noticed it was him and told him I’ve been a stoke fan since I was a little lad, and said to him ‘you’re coming on loan then yeah?’ and he laughed and winked at me
However, he was rude to a mate of mine at work and complained his chicken was 2 and half minutes late, but don’t care as long as he’s bagging for stoke soon come

Seems a nice, grounded lad as you'd expect with Rory as his dad
But he's supposedly a bit of a monster on the pitch

On a scale of 1to10, how much did he seem to enjoy his chicken?
1 being not at all, was 150 seconds late and quite chewy 10 being he found it to be simply delicious despite the distress?

Did he use any foal language? He didn’t, he didn’t say anything really to me, he just went red and looked like he didn’t know what to say, when I said I was a stoke fan he sort of looked at me like ‘ oh that’s how he knows me ‘, then I walked off and said about him coming on loan and he winked as I went |

Bit confused as to how chicken can be 2.5 mins late tbh… I mean, they don’t give you an ETA, so how does anyone decide their chicken is exactly 150 seconds late? 🤔
This is now a bigger topic than any impending transfer.

Customers can be harsh mate. I’ve only collected 1 tip so far the whole time working, I know too well mate That’s because customers have to order and serve themselves using that bloody app. 1 tip though, that’s a bit tight. Somebody at your place has got their fingers in the tip jar pal. |
