If we do sign Bunn, and it's announced "Ipswich get Bunn in, ready for visit of Harry Redknapp's Birmingham", let's hope that he doesn't hear incorrectly and start expecting a large brown envelope to be given to him on arrival on Saturday... [Post edited 1 Aug 2017 13:05]

if he doesnt hear it incorrectly then surely he will hear it correctly making this an impossible outcome as he will know its bunn not bung.
please explain. |  |

You do have 'jokes' and 'plays on words' in Norfolk, right? |  |

Bunn is straight from the Anderson/Hunt school of winging
A hard worker, not the most skillful but makes up with it from with work rate
Is that fair? |  |

Maybe he hears "Ipswich get bummin", like they did at Charlton and Birmingham set to pick up sloppy seconds.

I already did. That's why I upvoted it, on account of understanding the joke.
You're not really doing the Norfolk rep for being a bit backwards any favours here are you? [Post edited 1 Aug 2017 12:57]

And you don't appear to be doing yourself any favours by not grasping the nuance of a double negative and hence missing his point. Twice. [Post edited 1 Aug 2017 13:07]

Maybe you should read it again, think it through, and then come back? |  | | |

If he signs and we draw Chelsea in the cup and he scores the winner can Phil use the headline "Chelsea bunned". | | | |

I get the point. It was Fergal's point I was referring to. | | | |

I edited it earlier to add in the two words I'd accidentally missed out - "let's hope'..
So...
let's hope that he doesn't hear incorrectly and start expecting a large brown envelope...
There is no bung - to think that there was, he would have to hear the announcement incorrectly. To ensure that he doesn't think there is a bung, we need to hope that he doesn't hear it incorrectly.
I really didn't think it would be that difficult. | |

I always find word plays are best when they don't have to be explained!
I knew what you were meaning though! |  |

That's the whole point isn't it, it shouldn't have needed the explanation, should it? | |

Indeed - but with some on here......! Especially our feathered friends from over the border. | |

Almost the exact words my Huddersfield-supporting mate used earlier today to describe him.
"He's actually not bad, hard worker, strong, maybe lacks a bit of quality" |  | | |

It's all relative, though.
Sorry, my mistake, I meant 'They're all relative, though.' | |

Ha ha! It wasn't. Like yourself I like puns and plays on words etc. but Fergal's post was concerning the double negative (it might have been before you edited your post) and another poster was belittling him, so my post was directed at the belittler.
Is Fergal a budgie by the way? Had I known that I obviously wouldn't have bothered. In fact I wish I hadn't bothered anyway.  | | | |
