Clearly beaten Inter to someone. Be so nice if we could get Bremer in before Friday

 

[Tucker]

I like this cryptic for once, well done.

Yep. Gonna be listening to Bad Manners today now.

I think this relates to Bremer one way or another.

 

[Lawrence]

Full verse:
Wet winter left me cold and crying,
Beaten black and blue,
Someone said there's no harm in trying,
Nothing else to do.

Feels more upbeat than we’ve lost out to Inter.

I read it as we have been beaten black and blue by Inter (for Bremer). Well, we tried (no harm trying), but there's now nothing more (for this purchase) that we can do.

Highly unlikely its this in depth. It'll just be the first bit if anything.

Lyrics are from Walking in the Sunshine by Bad Manners.
Lead singer of Bad Manners is Buster Bloodvessel....perhaps Gibson has finally keeled over and caved in trying to negotiate with Levy?

 

[parklane yid]

We have beaten Gibson black and blue and he has finally caved in. Spence incoming? Can we actually give answer to cryptic this time. Feels like we never get told. The we get endless guessing all day

I love how some folk get all Cluedo on a cryptic, A&C says its simple, and lets face it it really is simple.



I just don't know it?

What was the answer to the last one?

That's the spirit Churchill!

That makes almost as little sense as the R I N one... so it may be right

R I charliso N

Yellow = Brazil?

That doesn't make sense?

Dear Sherlock, worry not, this poster poses no threat

Seems like people are upset at not spelling out the whole of Richarlison, like anyone wanted to be doing that nonsense for 11 days straight ?

 

[GazzaB]

I never know if A&C's cryptics are itk or if he's bored and enjoys reading umpteen pages of crap guesses..

 

[gavspur]

It’s Bad Manners to keep guessing.

 

[mil1lion]

I just hope it's a good news cryptic otherwise it's just cruel. If a&c were a doctor he would probably give you a cryptic and leave you to work it out. Then days later you're like "I've got cancer, finally worked it out". Hopefully it's Bremer in and not missed out.

 

[keeole]

Would be weird to start the thread with a bad news cryptic but let's face it that wouldn't stop A&C ?
Definitely related to Inter and would be extremely happy if it was us beating them to Bremer, Romano has insisted he still has agreement with Inter but im sure I read an ITK stating FP may have been turning his head.

 

[dellybelly]

"Wet winter left me cold and crying"

Does that suggest that it's some Fancy Dan who wouldn't be able to hack it on a cold night in Stoke?

 

[Norvern Munkey]

Why would a cryptic be issued telling us bad news about missing out on a player? I know A&C is a weapons grade monster sometimes but why would he raise a cryptic which basically says "work this one out and see what you could have won"
