Perhaps, but then maybe he didn't know what "capitol" meant and thought he would be playing in Washington DC

What is there to deliberate over?? He either wants to come to Cardiff or stay with daddy.

Personally, I think he's waiting for another club to come in for him and is using us as a last resort!

For £8m (for an unproven youngster) I think he's taking the piss. I think we should give him an ultimatum and move on.


Agree

A classic ' I havent decided yet' (because i'm hoping it'll smoke out some other clubs) if ever there was.... but even if it wasnt; He's obviously not that keen, unlike Cornelius who couldnt sign quick enough. Give me someone with Corny's attitude everyday rather than an unproven kid who wants to 'deliberate' over his nxt move (yawn). Who does he think he is?? This is a massive pre-season for us, we cant waste precious time (and potentially miss out on other prospects) in chasing unproven kids like young Ince

Blackpool's Tom Ince drags his feet over proposed move to Cardiff City
• Player asks for 48 hours to consider move to Welsh capital
• Cardiff have agreed £8m fee with Blackpool
guardian.co.uk, Wednesday 10 July 2013 22.44 BST

Tom Ince has asked Cardiff City to give him until Friday to decide if he wants to join the newly promoted Premier League club.

Cardiff and Blackpool have agreed an £8m fee, rising to £8.5m, but Ince is still weighing up whether to commit his future to the Welsh club.

Ince travelled with his father, Paul, who is manager at Blackpool, to Cardiff on Monday to discuss the proposed move and get a feel for the club and the city. Cardiff felt that the talks were positive and had hoped that the England Under-21 international would agree to sign.

Ince, however, informed Cardiff on Wednesday that he has still not made up his mind. There is no indication that any other club are prepared to match Cardiff's offer for a player who will be out of contract in 12 months' time, meaning that Ince is likely to spend another season in the Championship with Blackpool if he turns down the chance to move to the Welsh capital.

Let's look at this another way.

At least we seem to have put together a package and an opportunity that has really given Ince something to think about. If we are not the 'big' club he was hoping for it would be easy to say no straight away and take his chances in the rest of the window or January.

If he's not interested he can go back up to Blackpool... Is looking a bit stupid now... I'm sure we can scout a better player for this money from abroad if he's not bothered.
