I'm sure something is going down regarding another big name

Postby OliverHardy » Thu Jul 28, 2011 12:09 pm

On Twitter someone asked mike summerbee (mcfcbuzzer) "spill the beans, who is the other big name. Patore? Snjeider? Nasri?
Summerbee replied "my lips are sealed!"

Not exactly saying much, but sounds like the kind of comment someone would make if indeed something was happening.

based on the bollox this morning you could take a wild guess that they're putting the final touches on Nasri i suppose.

i'm expecting 2 players announced tomorrow based on this delay around Kun...could be something else i suppose, who knows.

Where's Tolm? You only post when yr winning. You only post when yr winning.

I'm almost certain Mike Summerbee meant very little by that. He has no place to comment on any transfers and i guess that's what 'my lips are sealed' meant.

I don't think there will be two announcements. I just think they are ironing out minor details tbh...there is no way it could be a Nasri or a Pastore etc without the press noticing. They'd have to do a medical and so on and it'd take the fucking MI5 to get them here unnoticed.

Agreed.

He might know of something else happening but it won't be imminent. The press would be on it by now.

I just looked on the schoolkids site & one of them is claiming buzzer told him that we're trying to do two deals. I'm convinced it was Summerbee who told Harry about the already signed 'blow yer socks off' deals though, so a pinch of salt may be required.

Hmm probably means nothing but some guy on bluemoon posted he spoke to Summerbee and Summerbee told him there will be one more big name coming in. That probably prompted the twitter message to Summerbee.

"City announce the signing of Augero, Fabregas, Schneider and Nasri"

I can see the photo of them holding up their respective shirts on the pitch ;-)

Im pretty certain the contracts signed with aguero and interviews done and we are tying up the merchandise end of it before confirming it, im also pretty certain that its not been held up due to another player signing! Think about it Aguero is massive he doesnt need to share the limelight wth anyone, if anything its better to have seperate days for big name signings as it keeps us in the papers(for the right reasons) and each big name ensures a rush of merchandise is sold...
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm just on my way to being pissed for the 16th day in a row, so I couldn't possibly comment at the moment.

it just seems to happen tho...and i'm 6 feet myself so i'm no dwarf...that no matter how tall you are...when yr in Holland there's always a slew of bastards taller than you.

I'm guessing you'll have to attend a basketball camp to get that effect, but you get my point.

why are they so tall?

cheers

I've always been wondering about it. I'm about 6ft1 and most birds are taller than me in Netherlands. Considering the country is size of average fly shit and people in Belgium seem fairly normal sized, it makes you think.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Loving how this thread has gone from...

"I'm sure something is going down regarding another big name"

to..

"I'm sure something is going down regarding the size of Dutch People"
