given the frothers thinking that we are going to be signing him media team should have been aware but it isnt the end of the world. people really need to get off the media teams back sometimes.

It was a strange thing to do to announce a loan signing. Especially one we have had here before that didn't impress.

It's called marketing, we are shocking at it.

What is the purpose of describing Pyke as a 'cheeky signing' - is it impertinent or insolent in anyway? Is it bold?

What is the point of using this adjective to describe the signing - it may as well have been announced as 'fabulous'?

Communication.

A 'pykey' signing would have been more apt!

Why? - the idea of marketing is to get people interested - everyone is commenting on it so it must be working

No not at all, I mean they're only the media team.

René Higuita called Pyke signing a while ago along with Barrow as assistant and Fondup he’s in the know

perhaps it's a 'cheeky signing' in the same way as one would have a 'cheeky Nandos'.
