From his facebook :
There is a huge transfer so close to happening right now, huge, some of you won't think its huge but huge it is. Can't say right now as don't want to scupper it. Don't even try and guess it on here because none of you will get within a million miles of it.
Just had a message from the person at the middle of the transfer i talked about yesterday saying he has signed the contract and hope all goes through smoothly

Simmsey has been twittering that there is a 'massive' signing coming 'this way' and the contract has just been signed. Simmesy is being clever - he isnt stating whether or not it is a plalyer,or someone else - could well be a sponsorship signing, or something else. HL

One of his messages on Twitter seemed to back pedal a bit saying some people might not think it as huge as he does. I don't think he's talking a player transfer more likely one of his TV mates swapping channels or something daft like that . You know how much of a wind up merchant he is.

Wow.
So, an unreliable individual (Simms) on an unreliable medium (Facebook) giving absolutely no details whatsoever. (Anyone reminded of the much-touted 'Steelers signing big-name British D-man' around the time of the World Championships? Did anything come of it? - no.)
Wake me up when something real happens...

My guess is league sponsorship or actually employing a league chairman.

Transfer is an interesting word to use rather than signing. As someone said above, Sky show transfering to Sky Sports 1 or 2?

So long as it isn't someone who has already signed for us quitting to go somewhere else I don't care!

We all know he's a huge fan of Galbraith, I wouldn't be surprised he's just going on about him going to Belfast tbh.

i think it will be to do with us as he is going to so much effort to gloat. Ah well, what will be will be. Shaggy he may of announced it on an unreliable medium but he obviously has something up his sleeve otherwise he would not of said one 'team' is going to be unhappy whilst 'a player is close to being very happy'. Like it or not Simms is in a better position than anyone on this forum for this kinda information.

pure speculation but would not be overly surprised if Legue had signed here and now signed there instead. Taking Meyers with him to twist the knife,lol.

I have a friend on facebook who lives in Belfast and on Friday morning he saw Pelle and Weller at Belfast airport. Simms has just stated that he has spoke to one of the clubs involved and they are shocked and stunned. Maybe Regan. Like previous as long as its no one we have already signed going to shuff then i'm happy.

I got a horrible feeling that one of the stand out players from last year has now gone to sheff. He would gloat that much if it wasn't something huge!

I need some brain bleach and I need it NOW!! ;D And like I said... Simms isn't all that reliable either... as exemplified by the 'British D-man to Steelers' thing that he was touting... and never happened. We shall see...
