Dick: Well Russell thanks for taking the job, any thoughts on the squad?

Russell: Looks pretty good, think we might be lacking a bit of pace upfront.

Dick: Any suggestions?

Russell: Theres a young lad at Aldershot banging in goals for fun, could do a job.

Dick: Who,s that?

Russell: Boy by the name of Robinson, Jake Robinson.

Dick: Hmm, Name rings a bell.

Russell: Reckon we could get him for about 50k.

Dick: Seems a bit steep, had a bad experience with Aldershot strikers, I,ll offer 25k and see what happens.

Russell: Thats great, nice to see a chairman with his finger on the pulse.

Slade leaves the office.

Dick: Robinson, Robinson where have I heard that name before.

was that jake robinson that slade was referring to?

I would have thought he'd have known that he was a brighton player to be honest.

That's true. This conversation just doesn't make any sense. I wonder who murciagull's source was for this dialogue, because they're clearly not reliable.

why do people persist with the idea that Robinson was ever any good. the boy was made of paper and would tumble over at the slightest nudge! very good at running round in circles and down cul de sacs. Pretty much like most of the youth team we have developed.

Stay in Aldershot! That's his level.

well presumably it wasn't meant to be a comic sketch, as it lacked the necessary ingredients for that..

humor for example tends to be used in comic sketches.

So I'm guessing it was an attempt at some kind of avant garde post modernism or other high brow prose.

DEEP.

He has a ability but it didn't work out, the lad needed a move so what's the big deal?

And perhaps soon to be our level. Let's not forget that.

Maybe something was lost in translation...

Dick: ¿Gracias bien de Russell por tomar el trabajo, pensamientos en el pelotón?

Russell: Parece bastante bueno, piensa que puede ser que carezcamos un pedacito del paso upfront.

Dick: ¿Sugerencias?

Russell: Theres un chaval joven en Aldershot que golpeaba en las metas para la diversión, podía hacer un trabajo.

Dick: ¿Quién, s eso?

Russell: Muchacho por el nombre de Robinson, Jake Robinson.

Dick: Hmm, anillos conocidos una campana.

Russell: Cuéntenos podría conseguirlo para alrededor 50k.

Dick: Parece un pedacito escarpado, tenía una mala experiencia con los huelguistas de Aldershot, I, oferta 25k del ll y considera qué sucede.

Russell: Eso es grande, agradable ver a un presidente con su dedo en el pulso. El Slade sale de la oficina.

Dick: Robinson, Robinson donde téngame oyó ese nombre antes.
