He's only been at this level for a few months and probably didn't buy it with his Colchester bonuses.

The announcement that was mistakenly released earlier re second signing now isn't going to be officially released due to technical errors! Do you think Kieran Crowley would pop back and give them a hand!

Due to an unexpected issue online, we're having to delay confirmation. Sorry everyone - enjoy the rest of your Friday evening! #pusb

Seems like genuine issue with the website. If you look, there have been no other stories up since this morning.

Yep. Doesn't make sense. Why can't they say on their official Twitter that he has signed but they can't confirm it on the website due to technical issues.

It's an 'online' issue, but Twitter IS online. Are they only allowed to announce things on the webpage? Doesn't make sense that remark.

Maybe they sacked their New PR person after this morning and don't have anyone to publish the quotes and link up the standard 'hold up a scarf and attempt a smile' photo?

Looks like Thomas may be playing at the Ricoh every weekend.

Perhaps the "online" issues are between CCFC and his agent ? Or his Sat Nav took him the wrong way up the Holyhead Road and he's stuck at Nuneaton Town ? :couchpotato:

Quite funny.
If he changes his mind now. Some people will be dissapointed.
Personally I look at his record and I am not impressed I trust Venus and TM.
However I feel this is their next level of choices. Not their first.
Hopefully I am wrong but someone else said Frank Nouble part 2.
Purely based on his track record I feel the same.
Regarding the other lad I was there when Reda got injured and I can't recall him at all so fingers crossed that isn't an omen.
I do remember a blonde haired lad who was getting very stuck in. However that is clearly not our man

Sounds odd, surely tweet happy picture of him holding the shirt, he's signed.

Then tweet tech issues mean no story.

This isn't going to end well is it...

Another club said they have to delay signings because the FA site crashed because it's overloaded with people using it.

Ah, the FA site. Why didn't they say that! Sounded to me like they meant City's end.

As usual I've never heard of either of those but it seems to fit in with Mowbray's plan to go for signings and players that will be here for more than one year.

Both sound promising lets hope they turn out to be McGoldrick type signings.

Yes it is strange, it's hard to see how people have managed to avoid hearing about them if they have an interest in footy. Particularly Sordell who is almost a household name. (in footy households)

Kwame Thomas, found these threads on him on Blackpool forum, nothing too negative. Seems like they didn't want him to go.
Very promising positive young signing IMO, may not be starting every game but he's our player for 2 years now so here's for hoping develops into a little gem.

Well they've managed to add a new story to the club website about the new away kit getting its first outing in the friendly at Nuneaton.

Surely confirming Sordell's signing would have been their first priority.....
