Barton Signed

[QPRdan3]

Funky saying he has signed a 4-5 year contract 15 minutes ago? Is that 4 and a half years or 4 to 5 years, which if the latter makes no sense!? Either it's 4 or 5 years and surely if he has signed then the person passing it on would know if it's 4 or 5!?

funky is saying swp has signed then later on he is saying fingers crossed....kind off a contradiction don't you think

Maybe Funky is "doing a Pete" - calling it before its called in the hope of generating traffic. Hope not as would be a cracking signing and full credit to him if he calls right two of the biggest signings in the club's recent history.

This kind of thread which gives your MB a bad name, we've had it from the horses mouth that he hasn't signed, and is thinking about it.
Now he might sign tomorrow, doesn't change the fact that this bloke is making it up.

See you all tomorrow for part 3?

[LOOPYHOOP]

Do all the ITK still think he's signed then?It's now late in the day and not a bean!

He said that to the Sky reporter when he left the training ground earlier in the day, and tweeted about then also. That doesn't mean it's impossible he's signed a contract later in the day / early evening.

Even if he had signed personally, QPR still need to finalise detail with Newcastle before they can announce it. Also, "IF" he has, i'm sure given their levels of proffessionalism, they would have asked Joey to not tweet anything until after they've done the right thing with Newcastle, which could explain why he's not said anything....

Maybe clutching at straws, but some usually very reliable people on here, particularly Walkonby have said they've heard he's signed....

Usually very reliable yes but Daily Mail reporting that the Toon are having second thoughts.

Oh ffs. Walkonby said he's signed so that's good enough for me

Ok now the body language analysis,
When Joey was asked If he was optomistic that the deal would go through, before speaking he nodded his head a few times (Yes) before his answer these things take time etc.
I'm no expert but have read that this is something people do and it gives their answer (without actually realising they have done it) so maybe we're worrying about nothing.
