Fucking Glenn Crooks. Totally agree it's the Villa extension. Any fan with a brain already knew that was happening.

Maybe they'll announce they're giving Mix a bonus.

 

[Keith Putnam]

Crooks is just saying someone will be transferred to NYCFC at some point in the future. This is always a true statement.

Making unfalsifiable claims is the key to a long career in punditry.

Not sure how to embed a tweet but Glenn Crooks is up to it again this morning.

Not implying Villa extension nor big name DP - think in terms of strong need for #NYCFC - what is the 1st position that comes to mind? #mls

I have no clue what comes to mind. Probably CDM? RB? GK? Who the hell knows

 

[Gotham Gator]

CDM. If you follow him on the Soccer-In-the-City podcast, that's the position he is focused on.

 

[SpicyRoll]

Could be us bringing back Bravo? Although I'm hoping for a splashier announcement (no offense to Bravo).

An announcement these next few days would be a nice holiday gift...

 

[D_RoyJenkins]

I bet it's the club literally wishing the fans Happy holidays

Crooks reads the Forums! Crooks reads the Forums! Hey Glenn Crooks just give us a name already!

And we have officially gone dark.

It's not a football position, it's a political position. We're getting a stadium announcement! A stadium is a strong need for NYCFC!

All threads lead to the stadium thread!

Merry Christmas Eve and first night of Chanukah everyone!

 

[Alex Da Silva]

So I've been waiting all day for an announcement and... nothing.

Uhhhh, leaked 2017 primary kit...

 

[Alex Da Silva]

Uhhhh, leaked 2017 primary kit...

I was promised player acquisition news. I wanna get hyped over Sami Khedira already!

 

[FootyLovin]

So I've been waiting all day for an announcement and... nothing.

I can't tell if your post was

• (A) ironic because the 1202 AM time stamp suggested that "all day" meant the two minutes since midnight
• (B) ironic because no announcement had been made on Christmas Day, which, of course no announcement was made on Christmas Day or
• (C) serious and you actually expected an announcement yesterday on Christmas Day

For the sake of my faith in humanity, I'm going to believe (A).

 

[Kjbert]

Falcao is in Manhattan

 

[Jon]

He's baaaaack.... Gotta think some announcement is imminent.

Patience - want to be 100-percent certain #NYCFC - only at 99-percent - fantastic to see the passion! #mls

I swear if it's Villa's extension I'm blocking him

 

[NYCFC_Dan]

Wait what's everyone's beef with Crooks?
