The Takeover Thread - Recon Group - NOW WITH NEW POLL

[Dave Cooper please]

Speaking of crocodile tears, I had a funny conversation with a punter I caught out last week.

"You are going to accuse me of all sorts now, but, sniff, it was a genuine, honest, mistake. I completely forgot (full on breakdown was how it sounded)".

It may have carried more gravitas had that not been complete bollocks, or that she cries like this on every call when asked a difficult question, or, my favourite, that the reason she is often crying is because she has "just lost my Dad".

She has just lost her Dad, when crying and notifying a new claim, 9 times in 5 years now!

She needs to keep a better eye on him, or get him one of those electronic tags.

Things have moved on a little since I was confronting punters intent on robbing/deceiving/obtaining a pecuniary advantage by deception. Back in the day the cue line for crocodile tears was "I had just had to rush my baby down the hospital" Plus ca change.

Talking of interviews I'm about to interview a whole swathe of Nigerians who want to come to the UK. I wonder what type of wonderful tales I'll hear today?

[cheltenhamlion]

Sounds fun. If one of them claims to be a Prince, and asks for your bank details so he can bung a couple of million in there, it is definitely a good deal.

What are you interviewing them for?  Ball winning/holding midfielder?

I knew bankers were hated, but is it mandatory to be a prick then to become one? Is there some test? Is Piers Morgan actually a banker?

Probably part of the initiation process.

There are many people in this world who are right up their own arses. However as a collective bankers - as in those who work in the world of posh gambling - are without question the biggest bunch of ******.

Can you tell them one of their princes still owes me $19,000,000. Thanks. And, Yes, I will accept Western Union.

I will also offer to sleep with her. A sacrifice I know but I'd do it for The Villa.

It's always refreshing seeing someone put the club before themselves.......respect Percy.

[Des Little]

Add me to the list.  I'll lend her one for the sake of the claret and blue.

Are you talking about all of him being upstanding, or just one element?

She could be a player/owner. She'd make a brilliant centre half with the size of that forehead of hers
