    I reckon @Markoa$ has blown our banner budget on this elaborate charter.

    Well worth it.

    Any sane person knows Mario wouldn't land at Luton Airport whilst Watford has a highstreet.

    Can't wait - It all goes wrong and he's unveiled looking like Mike Tyson.

    Also delayed due to his tattooist tattooing a Watford crest on his arsecheek but tattooing a moose instead of a hart.

    We didn't know Garner was happening until a few mins before announcement.

    We didn't know we were about to sign Quina and suddenly announced it.

    This is happening.

    Stop panicking guys. The pubs close at 10pm. The earliest this was going to be announced was 10:15pm.

    Expecting its announced around 10:45pm after he's visited Roosters.

    Be good to know if he ever was in England. Hilarious if that plane was a coincidence.

    Pozzo chartered an empty plane to distract us whilst he smuggled out crown jewells out the back door

    I think they'd be more tactical about it. Like that time when Okaka came back from injury and looked like a Carthorse which was about to be put down, with the wording "Guess who's back," to make us think we had someone useful

    Didn’t realise Ballotelli is a ‘free agent’. May as well spend a few weeks fooling ourselves into thinking it still might happen...won’t be much else to get excited by.

    We'll probably see him at London Colney tomorrow, if he is a free agent, completing the paperwork and starting to train for our next match at Derby on Friday the 16th.

    Ah just seen - "Rumour to nothing".

    I still want to imagine that was his plane - Isn't it student night in Watford on Mondays?

    Said yes years ago when it was rumoured. Yes again today no brainer in this league he’d have fun scoring. Be interesting if him and Troy were on the pitch and we won a penalty

    It's a new Pozzo tactic. Instead of getting us excited about new rumours and then our hopes dashed when they don't happen, they are scaring the carp out of us about a potential signing so we are relieved when it doesn't happen. A successful window = no Balotelli.

    If he is a free agent can we still sign him? I really hope so.

    Couldn't think of a worse player to sign to be honest. I see Welbeck is on a free now. Much better option to take a punt on him.

    The plot thickens. That plane from yesterday has flown into High Wycombe today - He's signing for our rivals.

    EDIT: It's gone to Hamburg - Mario has gone. FML.

    I cant think of a better player to sign! Have freed up Welbecks wages for this to happen. Will be done by weekend. Welcome to Watford Mario!

    Would either be the greatest signing ever or a complete nightmare. Hedging towards the latter. But would love to see him given an opportunity.

    I think it would very likely be both at some point.

    Starting to think Marios plane is a bit dodgy.

    This morning it went to High Wycombe, then crossed to Hamburg. From there it took a short trip to Sankt Peter-Ording, and is now on the way to Dortmund.

    Either Mario is going Dortmund, or he's bringing a mate over from there.

    Mario is a big fan of Three Counties Radio And wanted fly over the catchment area now he has lots of spare time. He’s going to get Jon Marks tattooed on his face when he gets to Dortmund to mark the trip.
