We can announce it anytime we want as Fulham did wth their two signings last week and as we did with Seb, Westwood and Vaughan, they just don't officially sign until the 1st of July

thats not quite right, they officialy sign when they sign the contract however it will be a contract that comes into force on 1st July. More importantly the club is unable to register the player as a SAFC player with the PL and FA until the window opens on 1st July and you can not play players who are not registered with the relevent authorities.

It is a common mistake to mix up the signing and registering of a player in the context of the modern transfer window

Sorry to be perdantic ;)

Amorebieta the centre back from Bilbao and Derek Boateng from Dnipro

other clubs have also made/announced signings, norwich come to mind

The point being we can announce the signings whenever we want, they just dont officially "join us" until the 1st of July
 
You do realise that it only says Blackburn on Wiki and in the real world they weren't actually after him, right?

You know that if Redgauntlet can get any sort of negative angle on anything Sunderland related he bloody well will. Hopefully we'll get a decent start to the season and that'll keep him off here,
