"Well, what were you looking for Nige?"

"A striker with a good engine, right in the head, and can play in defence or midfield."

"Hmmm, tricky, Nige. I have someone who fits the bill, but ..."

"No, go on!"

"Well, he's 33, but a big lad. Scored 10 last year, but he hasn't played much this season. We've got a bit of flu bug going round, so might play him this weekend on the right. Send a scout if you like"

"No need for that, he sounds exactly what I need right now. How much?"

"He's got a year on his contract, so it'll have to be 50, er, 75000"

"Done, 100000 it is then. Got a left back who can play in midfield?"

"No - that would be stupid, Nigel"
