I'm leaning towards the Grim Reaper :shock: I think we're going to get our man. Ince will get far more autonomy at STFC than at WBA or B'ham and he will therfore go for a player/coach role working along side Dennis and Gus. I can see it happening. I really can. I am fuckin buzzing. FACT!  |

I can see DV's point about getting fed up with the whole thing but it's not down to Ince, it's the daily coverage in the news about it. However, I quite like this because at least we know what's happening. It's not really fair to criticise Ince for mulling over what could be the biggesty decision of his life. This could make or break his future in football so it needs time. The fact he's still on holiday probably means the whole family is involved in the decision - does he stay in the Midlands or head south? It's all rather obvious really (Swindon  ) |

I don't think time taken has anything to do with it.
We didn't hear anything about our previous signings because nothing was said. In the case of Wise, that Wolves bloke revealed what was going on.
Perhaps if that hadn't happened, we'd still be in the dark? Although i think that was done on purpose...
Anyway, i happen to think he'll sign. The amount of open talk going on, makes us supporters get confident. I fail to see why so much open debate on the subject, with everyone from Ince, his agent and wise contributing, cannot point towards him joining us.
If they were unsure or had doubts, i fail to see how giving the supporters so much hope is a good thing.
I happen to think that dragging the matter out is a superb bit of marketing. This will generate more publicity and will in turn create a far more explosive response from the fans.
Its like going to watch a 3-0 win, vs being 3-0 down and winning 4-3. One is good, one will be taked about for ages. By dragging the Ince deal out, we'll talk about it more.
Think about it, if Ince was signed and he was announced the same day with no prior public knowledge, you'd be happy, but it would be a complete waste of a superb opportunity to generate publicity. You wouldn't be discussing it for days on end, and checking the news feverishly on a regular basis.

There are nice places to live in the midlands as well, some of the smaller towns south and east of Birmingham are nice. e.g., Solihull. Also, and this may shock/offend some people, Swindon is not exactly radiating with beauty.

The whole of Britain is all pretty similar to be fair. Most towns and cities are very non-descript, with uninteresting architecture, the same shops everywhere (M&S, McD's, etc). If you did a random teleport to any sizeable place in Britain, you would be hard pushed to work out where you were.

Wiltshire a lovely place to live, Swindon is as average as every other large town in the country.

Adver site Wise saying the number 4 shirt is vacant for Ince and has told Weston that if Incey doesnt sign he can have it!!!
Seems quite positive!
