    AH and his hype

    Firstly for those who need hand-holding explanations, I'm not commenting on whether the new signings are going to be any good or not. The fact is that we won't know for a few weeks.

    And I'm not criticising AH's efforts.

    It's the hype.

    Look at what he's said:

    Do you still feel confident the next three days we’ll be able to get our targets to get us over the line? 👍⚽️


    110% confident.

    Delighted to welcome Mason Bennett to @Official_NCFC. He’ll be a tremendous addition to the squad

    And we got very, very close but unfortunately we missed out yesterday when a top 7 League 1 team came in from nowhere and pinched him. That’s football


    Well this last one is the reality, despite having agents phoning in droves and all the confidence that slowly evaporated and turned into putting on a brave face.

    Thankfully there was Premiership football to provide a distraction last night and well done Bournmouth. But we may just as well chatter and speculate amongst ourselves as pay any attention to AH's Tw**tter feed.

    The one thing I'm observing though is that he seems to get as much as buzz out of the process as the outcome and that is about opposite of my personal style where I just want to see the result regardless.

    Give it a rest, and look forward, he has done his best and he's passionate, find something else to have a moan about, or better still get down the lane and support them!

    I don’t know what it is with him and not being able to communicate on there - the videos he did on the Post website were sensible and informative, explained why things would probably be delayed etc

    I do believe it's just hype and I prefer hype to lies if you get my drift.

    Is Old_pie Ray Trew incognito?His EVERY post seems to have a dig at Hardy.

    He did over hype it abit but to be honest if Bogle had signed it would of been justified !
    He should in hindsight of kept quiet until the deal was done but when he’s actually at the ground having a medical you would think it was a done deal, the player changed his mind and signed for peterboro right at the death, hopefully another lesson learnt !

    It’s alright hyping up ticket sales and attendances and other PR stuff, that’s part of the job. But why anyone would big up things that are largely out of their control and where a million and one things can go wrong is a mystery.

    Trew did it(on here) and Hardy does it on Twitter. Does them absolutely no favours.

    That can't be the same player, because Hardy Tweeted that Bogle had gone to Peterborough before that .. and ...

    Posh director of football Barry Fry said: "I would like to thank Neil Warnock for all of his help and assistance and wish him all the best at Cardiff in performing another miracle in getting Cardiff into the Premier League."

    Fry and Warnock have history going way back to Fry's Barnet days (anyone remember the dodgy cheque stub for £10K?)
