Thedelldays Posted 12 July, 2012 Share Posted 12 July, 2012 Davis was announced at nine at night. That is not normal. What is normal in the world of 24/7 media coverage But when was the last before that? Or should the club have waited till 0900 on the monday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or should the club have waited till 0900 on the monday No they didn't need to wait until Monday. Nice try.... SD was not just an announcement. It was a photoshoot and full quoted interview. i.e. the signing confirmed hours before and could have been announced earlier, with the lovely photoshoot following later. Anyway, not that important.

There when Franny scored Posted 13 July, 2012 Share Posted 13 July, 2012 I think this is from the Vitesse supporters site. http://www.vitesse.org/nieuws/vitesse_in_de_media/uit_de_media/alexander_buttner_toeschouwer_bij_wilhelmina_2708_-_vitesse.html "Buttner was Thursday and spectators along the line during the exhibition game Wilhemina '08 - Vitesse. It is unclear whether the left-Vitesse is definitely swap Southampton, England. Thursday morning was an article on vitesse.nl short time in which the club reported that the transfer was the final round. Some time later, the message is already gone. Buttner was in the interest of several clubs. he spoke Fulham and Southampton. With the last club he was fast. Also, Vitesse and Southampton came to an agreement. Next came a kink in da cable 'additional requirements of a third party. " Vitesse anticipated the impending departure of Buttner by Patrick van Aanholt Cheksea another year of hire. The Vitesse supporters waiting on the final reports. Vitesse won without the Sprint Player of the previous season Alexander Buttner, with 1-6 Wilhelmina '08 in Weert."

alpine_saint Posted 13 July, 2012 Share Posted 13 July, 2012 If this isnt concluded before the end of the weekend I really don't think it will be at all. I'll go a bit further than that and say if it doesnt complete today, it never will. Cant see NA dn NC dwelling on this further when the friendlies have started and there is still much else to be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
up and away Posted 13 July, 2012 Share Posted 13 July, 2012 If Buttner has travelled over to Saints, it has to be odds on that he will now sign. Everything but the medical and signing are now settled and acceptale, otherwise the is no point in the trip. So this very much just looks like the medical being the final obstacle.

itchen_dan Posted 13 July, 2012 Share Posted 13 July, 2012 (edited) I thought it was a pre-season press conference like last years? In last years it was announced: - Lambert signed a new contract - Cork bid accepted - Sharp bid accepted but move wasnt to go ahead He'll talk about the season ahead, potential transfer moves, pre season plans etc. Not just based on tomorrow?

itchen_dan Posted 15 July, 2012 Share Posted 15 July, 2012 Vitesse played a friendly yesterday v Den Bosch behind closed doors and won 3-2 - Buttner wasnt in the Vitesse squad.

Saint-Armstrong Posted 15 July, 2012 Share Posted 15 July, 2012 One of the stalkers on Twitter was saying something the other day about De Ridder and Buttner being friends on Facebook as of 2 or 3 days ago.

CanadaSaint Posted 15 July, 2012 Share Posted 15 July, 2012 Did we ever establish who the "third party" was? If it really was Buttner's father, as rumoured at one point, I could see Cortese cooling on the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Martini Posted 15 July, 2012 Share Posted 15 July, 2012 I can't see Büttner staying at Vitesse, as mentioned they already have a replacement for him and he only has one year left on his contract. I'm not at all confident that we'll be signing him unless the mystery third-party drops their claim. Its not like Cortese to just hand over a bit more money to some shady third party. Either Büttner manages to come to some agreement with the third-party or he goes somewhere else. The worst thing for him would be to stay at Vitesse but with both Saints and Vitesse having rich owners they can afford to be principal and Büttner can be the one losing the most.
