BREAKING NEWS: City land Fortune! By CI Reporter - 24/06/2009 01:05 It appears that Hull City have won the race ahead of a clutch of English and Scottish Premier League clubs to sign French striker Marc-Antoine Fortune.
A spokeman for New South Wolves, Macus Chantry commented earlier today: "I'm disappointed that we didn't sign this player as I was looking forward to moaning about how he wasn't the right signing and how it was all Thick Mick's fault. I know that the club had never mentioned him and I've never seen him play but now I'll have to moan about not signing him instead. At least that way there are about 90,000 professional footballers that we haven't signed so that should keep me busy to end of the transfer window. This article had so much credibility too, with the misspelling of my team's name and the reference to Glasgow Celtic. I reckon the journalist really knew what he was talking about and hadn't just added Wolves in as a lazy piece of journalism." 2009/6/24 Marcus Chantry <marcus.chan...@macquarie.com> > BREAKING NEWS: City land Fortune!
