I am both cheered and disheartened by this information, Rifleman. But thank you for its supply. I shall do all in my power to ensure that Benno leaves on loan within the next few days. I am currently in talks with Parky and Powell to drive home the benefits of such a deal. Besides, if we sign Paynter, the final nail in the coffin will be struck.
