Last week, social media took great delight in pointing out that Daniel Sturridge appeared to sign his new Liverpool contract on a blank piece of paper.

Well, at least there was a piece of paper.

Cheltenham Town appear to have gone one better (or should that be one worse) by having their latest signing pose for the cameras signing a blank table. 

The League Two club completed a loan move for Wolves player Eusebio Bancessi and decided this was the picture to release on their official Twitter account. 

It almost seems such a poor job that we wonder if it was all actually a clever ruse to generate some publicity on the back of Sturridge's gaffe? 

If so, consider it mission accomplished. 

Edit: 16:00 UK time

It seems that Cheltenham have deleted their original tweet but you can find the picture they first tweeted below.

They also finally tweeted the actual deal being signed.
