His statement isn't nearly as definitive as the headline. "[A]nd are striving to keep this group together", "we don't see him anywhere else than in red and white stripes", "[w]e don't want to do what we did", [w]e would like to move away from that"...they're signals of possible intent, but with plenty of wiggle room.
My worry is that he won't go to Stoke or Sunderland or even Lincoln for that matter, but Atlético Madrid are an option.... EDIT: But I suppose speculation on next year's home strip is over before it started ;0
My cousin had a border collie that was quite happy to let you into the house but would not let you leave. He'd go berserk if you went anywhere near the door. Now that is the sort of dog we need at the club.
My friend has a German Shepherd who likes to bury his snout deep into your crotch and have a good old root around. He is a very friendly, even tempered animal, but he is also huge and believe me, having your goolies sniffed by this character is profoundly intimidating. The recipients of his interest are inclined to behave very carefully indeed.
Dear fellows please stop liking my posts otherwise I might end up becoming nice and then I could not live with myself and I would have to go off somewhere else to annoy people.
OK very funny. I get the message. The fact you are all colluding for me to go by giving my post loads of likes gives me an added incentive to stay just to be cussed.
