You have too much time on your hands.

Cider is trying to do a funny, my favourite time Cider did a funny was when he became an internet beggar and was asking random strangers for money in the general forum :lol:. Oh wait, he was being serious that time right?

It took me 47.0182726262 seconds to perform the search. (And I'm officially on holiday so yes, yes I do.)

Anyone who've been on the Caf long enough to know Cider, and believed him needs to be sectioned. I think he was just trying to make a statement how ludicrous these rumours and twitter has become.
There's always one... Next you will be telling us he is Illuminati affiliated.

Gutted that I've got to head out in a minute and then I've got to go see my Nan later as it's her 93rd birthday.

I was looking forward to seeing a Cafe meltdown later :(:lol:

Daily Star reporting we've agreed a 5 year contract.

Cider could be onto something.

Red Yankee is human scum.

Should we clap for him on a point well made, Sultan?

Everyone knows that it's ludicrous but people still fall into it as it is a bit of fun and time killer during the off-season. Surely, no one ever committed suicide over a bunch of transfers or non-transfers.

There's 2 extremes in here. Those that look for any piece of news from any sort of source and gain insane amounts of hope and muppetrey from it and those that discredit any news from any sort of source in the sly hope that their lack of muppetry appeases the gods and they are proven wrong... I think I'm in the latter

Where the goals come from.
they've been holding off on the official announcements as they want to do with triple announcement with Garay included asap.
To be fair, I'd forgotten that the sensible thing to do is delay getting transfers done and dusted because it's vitally imprtant to anounce three on one day. OK, so somebody might come in and scupper the deal at the last minute, but it's worth the risk surely? I mean... anouncing three transfers on one day... wow!

Think you're confusing making an announcement with finaliazing the deal

The transfers are done, as previously explained.

He said they've been holding off on the official announcements, not holding off on completing the deals..

I was the latter. But w.r.t to Thiago I am the former. 'The Cider' has ensured that I am so far into being the former that there is no hope left for me. I have decided to quit the caf and come back only at 11 am BST today, 5 times. Failed each time :-(

In other news; £260m plans for regeneration of Anfield area are revealed. Most of that money will go to Rentokil.

Well if the deputy editor of Goal, who looks like he's 9 years old is concerned....

Welcome to Manchester reception committee

#MUFC not heard from Thiago's people in last few days. Some concerns as to why it's all gone quiet after Barca spoke to his dad on Friday.

Only if United don't understand how seriously the Spanish (or Catalans) take long holiday weekends.

Personally I do think he's still thinking about his options. His dad may be sure it's the right thing, but Thiago's being accused of running away from "The Greatest Bestest Fluffiest Bunniest Team on Earth Ever Ever" in favour of short term fun and more cash. And given he's on the beach this week, he may be looking at picture of Southport sands on his smartphone and wondering.
