United Miss Out

Nae luck for United  :blah01:

nae luck for losing your 2 best players in as many weeks :blah01:

levein has his **** together though, he knew he was unlikely to sign porter so made an example of him - if players are dedicated to sign with utd by a deadline then he isnt interested in them.

After all that

[Guest Arab4Ever]

oh well, looks like Levein did the wrong thing. depends how you look at it i suppose.

[kencar]

Actually Levein was quite canny. He bailed out before his No 1 signing target turned him down therefore making it look like he was in charge. Don't kid yourself Porter was your major summer signing priority. Move on to Plan B  :004:

Now he looks like he's going to join Motherwell 

[Guest Arab4Ever]

plan B it is.

and the chances are hes only joining Motherwell because we turned him down :029:

[wyness_is_god]

Porter is probably glad he was turned down by United, according to guy interviewed on news earlier "we live in a sleepy hollow we call dundee"  :sillywave:

although im sure he was in shock and actually meant to say "a sleepy hovel"  :023:

[The Mantis]

Obviously the guy was being diplomatic though, even 'hovel' is pretty good.

The Pimpernel organisation has been active in the last few days and  the recent announcement about Porter going to Motherwell has stunned our clandestine staff since  all reports indicated a more Northerly  flight. But Wick Academy has assured their supporters that their loss will not affect their passionate desire to win their League this coming year.

Porter himself seems to be a fine young lad, filled with reminiscing thoughts of boredom in the South and lots of common sense  about his future  not a jot alleviated by the pangs of conscience he must have suffered about leaving his poor club in Limbo. Same old, same old.

Meantime , back at the ranch , Mini-Mac , aka Dean MacDonald, appears to be a small but chunky and very interesting signing. He appears to have a  very cool head in the proximity of the goalmouth  which will be  an asset  which may well further his career at the Longman in ,...er..."spades".That is ,if he can overcome his implied and rumoured  desire to go home every two days instead of settling down in Inverness as soon as possible and getting on with the job  not to mention his commitment to ICT and his career in general. Sigh..  As stated earlier, same old , same old. I mean would it not be just cheaper to fly his Mum  up to be by his side in this critical phase of his career amongst the savage Picts?

Turning to other parts  I must ask IHE if he will consult with either his oracle or his Mum  since the grapevine is ripe  with the rumour that critically-acclaimed Ernie from Wigan has turned down a generous offer from ICT on the grounds that he could not understand the Highland Accent or indeed the contract on the table which unfortunately was handed to him from across the other side of the table and therefore with it being upside down he thought he was reading Gaelic. This setback  really unsettled him and he now wants to stay close to his Mum alsdo.

As stated same old, same old. .. :023:

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

As ever - MONEY was the prevailing winner.  :029:  I did ma best.  :001:
