The goat has watched Thunder dome and "two man enter one man leave" Auntie Entity

"Church and empire were fused in a single entity" Church - Christian Eriksen

Eriksen is leaving but two more joining?

The Collector : Perhaps you've got something to trade after all.
Max : Keep talkin'
The Collector : Twenty-four hours of your life, in return, you'll get back what was stolen.
Max : Sounds like a bargain.
The Collector : It's not. It's the law.

I don’t think The Goat is giving any names. It’s just a simple cryptic based on Mad Max.

As said previously, ‘Two Men enter One Man Leaves’ is probably the most famous line/chant from Thunderdome.

So Eriksen is going to Madrid with 2 coming to us in return.

Simples?

I hope it is 2 good players from Madrid coming our way since I am getting really sick of Madrid treating us like a feeder club.

It probably is but I always thought cryptics were created as we had no previous links in the press and the source does not want to be compromised?

Whether or not it makes sense for this, I think it’s important to note that we’ve been after Isco for multiple Windows. I feel like he would be considered to some extent.

Normally right mate but as @Archibald&Crooks said this in the OP:

Lets start by telling you there's going to be a cryptic today and that ain't it :D

Or we could come right out with it, I'd probably prefer that but you guys deserve a bit of fun

I would think this one may be for his sadistic entertainment... but he has said is for our fun...he is a deviant of the highest order

The Cryptic just keeps the thread ticking over and us relatively on topic, whilst things are "quiet" after the big signing.
I must admit, I just thought it meant our interest in Max Aarons was over (tossed, as in threw away) after I first read it this morning, but I prefer the other versions better (y)

Woke up.

Made coffee.

Checks to see what is happening on SC.

Reads Goat ITK and cryptic.

Uses 'Search' on ITK discussion thread to see if @Nine while nine has seen and solved it yet.

Decides to try same method later rather than sift through a ton of bad guesses :meh:.

Any attempts to solve this that ignore the mad Max quote are unlikely to be correct. Dee is the person this info is coming from I think. Then we have the quote from Mad Max and then we have "annoyed, he tossed it", which again sounds like a quote from something. I wonder if it is something related to Aarons, but there are other people called Max and it might be in relation to actors or something.
So...we are signing Gibson?

Half an hour reading that lot. I'll drop back later when someone has hopefully cracked it once and for all....

With Rob saying that people overestimate the Goat's (the hairy ****) cryptics often, and knowing that the Goat's bleats are often "The Goat has heard that..."

I think Occam's Razor would say:

Dee has said well, ain't we a pair, Raggedy Man. Annoyed, he tossed it.
Daniel Levy has said, "We've been here before, Real Madrid, you and I. We're quite a pair (special relationship, :ROFLMAO:)." Annoyed with recent negotiations with potentially RM's bid for Eriksen, or even contract negotiations with Eriksen himself, he (Levy) tossed it (rejected RM's latest bid or has resigned to letting Eriksen go).

That's my 2c. Could be a bit too obvious, but with recent ITK and media reports saying that Eriksen is open to negotiations/no one has come in for him yet, this may be from the Goat a new/different piece of ITK saying RM are trying to pry him away.

But in my mind, maybe it lines up with Herc saying people don't want to play poker with Levy because he won't blink first. And RM know that.
