The digital breadcrumb trail leading to Joe Bryan’s anticipated confirmation has apparently begun with Ashton Gate posting an innocent image of the Lansdown Stand bathed in sunlight on Wednesday morning and the obvious link made between that structure and the presence of new signings on its roof.
If and when it happens you can be sure the Bristol City media team and Jon Lansdown's PR wing Fever Pitch have something special in store (and we use the word “if” because it still remains that until he’s pictured in a Robins shirt again), although the deal is some way down the line, to the point it would take something catastrophic for it all to collapse.
The prospect of the city’s (small and capital C) proudest sons returning to BS3 has certainly enlivened a typically dull post-season period in which players not competing in the top-flight or play-offs are on holiday, along with senior staff members looking to capture some R&R before the transfer window begins in earnest.
