I know it doesn't mean too much but skybet currently has us and man City at 5/2 to sign Porro.

Excuse my ignorance here, but why didn’t we negotiate this deal ourselves? Why have Base do it if they don’t have certain authority over things? It’s not as if our club guys are spread thing working on other deals. I must be missing something obvious, as this makes absolutely no sense to me.
Fab staying out of the limelight, and Levy has a habit of killing things before we start. Base doing the leg work makes sense, and tbf we thought we were there. Sporting are just chancing their arm which at this stage of the window means drastic measures.

My opinion is we will shift a little bit towards them, then Levy will pull out altogether(or at least threaten to), then the deal will get done.

Gold said this on his football london Q&A, which is riddled with the worst advertisements in history, so the aggregator will have to do

nah im more confident he closes it. he knows the backlash is there
In a boardroom in North London, a man opens a cupboard near his desk, pulls out a dusty appliance and plugs it into a socket recessed in the centre of the desk. With an unmistakable bing bong sound and some whirring, the dusty old fax machine lights up and is ready.

Cheers for the reply Trix, always happy to be educated on the finer details of transfer dealing.

Take the example away from football. Investment directors will have had board sign off to do a deal within certain parameters. If the deal falls outside of that they’ll have to resubmit proposal to the board for sign off. Not uncommon at all.

Levy: "Fredo, you're nothing to me now. You're not a brother, you're not a friend. I don't want to know you or what you do. I don't want to see you at the hotels, I don't want you near my house."
