One of my own.

There are 10 types of people in the world. Those who give a fuck about binary code and Concrete Ron.
My arse!

If you've seen that one somehwere else its a very strange coincidence.
Not really a coincidence, just that loads and loads of people came up with it before you! *winky thing*

I'm not saying I invented the saying for fucks sake, just that I didn't just swap Chuck Norris for Ron Concrete like most of the others.

We should have adopted a similar attitude/reaction with MON.

Sounds like we're at the fee negotiation stage.

I mean normal service in a "a back to the reality" context, that transfers take time to work out. With the last two signings the rumours became reality very quickly, with that kind of speed you get spoiled. A needless moment of frustration by myself, because I have been used to protracted transfers over the last couple of off seasons. The club is really pulling it out of the bag this summer, we seem to acting decisively and swiftly, they need to be commended for that.

Ah, right. I thought you meant waiting until we'd got rid of one player before bringing in another. You're right- we did get spoiled by the speed of the last two signings (and Holman before that).
