Really should have renewed their winzip subscription.
In San Sebastian, gulping down cheap Rioja with Philip Neville and David 'The Chosen One' Moyes.
And all the ITKs on Twitter basically talking out of their arse. They don't have a clue what's going on and contradict themselves all the time. As long as their name is in there somewhere. Bunch of clowns.
Nice idea
Brilliant
wish I'd thought of that.For anyone actually believing that AS tweet, come on lads, they're just joining in on the fun and taking the piss.
If he's part of the fee for De Gea, as it seems(19m+Navas valued at 10m), I'd think they can't be separated.
To be fair, that's just re-hashing what's been said for the last hour.
This would all be a lot funnier if it didn't mean Romero was going to be our first choice keeper this season.
Same here, I don't know what do with myself. My state of mind pretty much encompasses all that fits into the '
'Couldn't open the fecking file format
What was it? A Lotus Doc?!
No Ed faxed them the USB drive with the file on it.
So basically this happened:
Madrid: "United didn't send it on time, it's all their fault!"
United: "Actually, we can prove that this is not the case at all"
Madrid: "Er, yes, but no! The...er....the format was wrong! Yes!...tell the fans that! It was all United's fault!"

It's great stuff all the same!
Hope we sent it as an exe file and actually sold them a virus, even tho Fergie said he never would
Haha well done.
Nothing new in that one.
With the whole timestamp stuff Madrid will probably force it through. Still, it's been fun. Shame we might end up with another player out of Real's rubbish bin.
Apparently the timestamp reads 00.00:20
Pretty much what has been said several times already, although the last paragraph is interesting:
There is no precedent for Spanish clubs being given additional time to conclude transfers as there is in England.
What kind of format does a fax have to be in? Isn't that how they still do these things?
What a fecking shambles.
no wonder we've waited so long to make any transfers ourselves, eds been sitting at home pissing himself in anticipation of this prank! Unbelievable
HOLY feck. ED USED MY HOMEWORK TRICK.
- Shit... I'm in trouble here, haven't done my homework.
- Go to music library...
- Rename "awesomesong.mp3": "homework.doc"... Attach and email to teacher.
- 12 hours later in School:
- "Sorry Pexbo Word didn't like the document you sent me, it was just a load of characters like %}>#%>#^}<^}<}^?"
- "Oh sorry Sir I wasn't using word, I'll copy paste it to word tonight and send it to you again"

Edit - It appears I know gormless.
Madrid trying to save face?
I don't care about the money.. I dont care about Navas. I don't care if De Gea doesnt play for us again..
If this falls through, I would have a silly smile on my face for at least a week..
Madrid, being Madrid, will probably get it approved.

Collapsed? The only one doing that will be Perez. They'll fecking lynch him if this really has been ballsed up.
Cant go through then.
A photocopy of the floppy disc the contract was saved to.
"What do you mean that's not how it works?"
On the bright side, I imagine this is pissing off Real Madrid so, you know, every dark cloud...
I'm normally not its biggest fan, but Twitter is great guns right now.
Man Utd Sainz is saying the club is reassuring De Gea everything will work out. Both clubs have proof everything was sent on time. UEFA will decide.
Indeed. I'm doubting whether he would be.
This will have virtually cost us £30m. Surely someone will have to be held responsible if the delay was cause by our part? Imagine a corporation where employee's error costs you £30m in a day.
Madrid's fault all over...
