I like the transfers where you only hear about it after it's happened. When was the last one like that?

1994 the eve of the internet.

yes...the long drawn out affairs never seem to work either...i.e. Baros...nobody really wanted him till we realised we weren't going to get anyone else and then everyone was obsessed with him in the run up to signing him till we realised he was crap...bit like our current manager

Jean II Makoun devait s'envoler pour l'Angleterre vers 15h afin de passer la traditionnelle visite médicale puis signer un contrat de trois ans et demi à Aston Villa. Le club de Birmingham, entraîné par Gérard Houllier, et le Camerounais ont finalement trouvé un accord sur ses conditions salariales. Le montant du transfert est de 6 millions d'euros, assortis d'un bonus d'une somme maximum de 3 millions d'euros.

Jean Makoun was due to fly out for England at around 3pm in order to undergo the traditional medical before signing a three-and-a-half-year contract at Aston Villa [the world's greatest football club]. The Birmingham club, coached by Tha G-Dogg, has finally agreed personal terms with the Cameroon national. The transfer fee is 6 million Euros, rising to a maximum of 9 million.
