Funny way of holding out, by signing for us. As I remember it was a bit of a throwaway comment when he 1st arrived, which was more about City proving that they were serious in their ambitions than wanting to move on.
Two posts ago you were vague about the details, now you know specifics that mitigate what he said?
I remember it, MRM obviously remembers it. Pissed me off, pissed MRM off. Do you really think we'd have that sort of reaction to someone signing and saying 'City have to prove they are serious in their ambitions'?
Use your fucking head.
