DCFCfranco Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Says on telegraph site that there are "one or two" things with the medical- maybe they have found a problem with him being too fit and not injury prone enough to sign for us You're quite the pessimistic fan aren't you shilton.

p.shilton Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 You're quite the pessimistic fan aren't you shilton. Not at all mate- over all I am quite optimistic, have not doubted the club or what we have tried to achieve over the past 5 years- more than most fans on here can say. That was an attempt humour!

Same with Gjokaj, sounds like he's pretty much signed apart from some things to do with the medical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffsRam Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Gjokaj signed a few days ago; [url=http://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/article/gjokaj-deal-done-319168.aspx]http://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/article/gjokaj-deal-done-319168.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duracell Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Gjokaj signed a few days ago; [url=http://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/article/gjokaj-deal-done-319168.aspx]http://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/article/gjokaj-deal-done-319168.aspx He means we talked about Gjokaj as if he were our player before it went official.

StaffsRam Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Would have expected the sentence to include "He'd" rather than "He's" if that were the case. However, no worries either way.

observer Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 just out of interest what could be the reasons for this hold up, they say issues on his medical... I would of thought this would be pretty straightforward, or is it a case a doctor says we think he may potentially probably have an issue with his knee we need a second opinion??? or sorting out insurance or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Gjokaj signed a few days ago; [url=http://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/article/gjokaj-deal-done-319168.aspx]http://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/article/gjokaj-deal-done-319168.aspx I know he did, he played against Sheffield Wednesday as well... The point was that Nigel had referenced Gjokaj as having signed before he had (about 2-3 days before he signed). It seems as though its a similar situation where we are just waiting for all the details to be sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with Gjokaj, sounds like he's pretty much signed apart from some things to do with the medical. Let's try this: "Same with Gjokaj, sounds like he would pretty much signed apart from some things to do with the medical." That doesn't even make sense. It is meant to be: "Same with Gjokaj, sounds like he has pretty much signed apart from some things to do with the medical." Which makes more sense. Basically, it was meant to be: "Same with Gjokaj (that is, like Gjokaj he was mentioned by Clough as our player before he had signed), sounds like he's (he has, 'he' here is referencing Freeman) pretty much signed apart from some things to do with the medical."

For the point you're trying to get across, your tensing is wrong. The sentence should be "Same with Gjokaj, sounds like he'd pretty much signed apart from some things to do with the medical." However do we really need to argue semantics? From your original post I didn't think that you knew he'd signed. You obviously did, so fair enough.

From your original post I didn't think that you knew he'd signed. You obviously did, so fair enough. Again, he'd isn't a tense, its a contraction of 'he would'. As such you're saying that I should have said: "Same with Gjokaj, sounds like he would pretty much signed apart from some things to do with the medical." Which doesn't even make sense.

Albert Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 No, it's a contraction of "he had", which is past tense. Actually, its can be both, and here I did state it was being used in such a context. However, it did completely slip my mind that it could be he had, which does make sense in the context. Thanks for clearing that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StaffsRam Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Derby are set to add 20-year-old Nottingham Forest full- back Kieron Freeman. They hope to have him signed in time to play in the Under-21 League fixture at Leeds United tomorrow.
