    Wasn’t this supposed to be sorted this week? Granted, there are a couple of days left in the week but it still seems to be dragging on – unless they are waiting for a Friday announcement for a ‘moral’ boost before the weekend?

    If he's signed something would have been said, it doesn't matter which day its not going to boost morale. Why is it we can only work on Walcott and noone else at the same time and why is it so delayed in actually offering him the contract. If he wants to stay offer him a new contract otherwise sell him after he's been replaced.

    i think from the club's point of view they may see it as a 'moral' boost - regardless of whether it actually is to us or not.

    as far as the noise indicates a contract has been offered and it is awaiting his signature, which was supposed to be this weekend - perhaps the man city game changed things. god knows.

    Talk of it being done this week was from the papers, the only thing concrete with have in terms of quotes is Wenget saying the signs are positive and he expects it to be sorted by the end of the month.

    The agents have to be satisfied with their bung too, it's not just Walcott that has to be buttered.

    My guess is that it requires the entire negotiation team to prise Theo's grubby little fingers from the cash register.

    If I were Theo, and 100% cynical, and had 0% regard for the club, I would hold negotiations up just till the end of January.
    Right now the only card we hold is the possiblity of selling him (admittedly slim) and buying a replacement (lol).

    Come close of Jan transfer window, Theo holds all the cards. He can sign anywhere he likes for an obscene signing on fee, and there's jack-all shit we can do about it.

    Of course, that's just me, maybe Theo wouldn't dream of doing that.

    anyone that chooses Lehmann as part of their online persona must have a streak of pure nazi evil coursing through their veins, so i'm not surprised in fairness.
