"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to-- Gareth, what are you doing over there?"
"Just thought I'd have a go playing the organ!"
"You're supposed to stand on the left-hand side of the aisle. We can't really proceed unless you--"
"Wahey! Now I'm over here! I'm gonna ring the bell! I can do anything!"
Daniel Levy, the Tottenham Hotspur chairman, did well to stand firm against Chelsea over Luka Modric last summer, but Barcelona's impending move for Gareth Bale will be harder to resist. It is a magnificent opportunity for the player to join the best team in the world and not just as a makeweight.
Clearly, he is Barcelona's type of full back and with three years left on Bale's contract, the money will be premium rate and tempting. Yet with Harry Redknapp also likely to leave, this is a watershed summer for Tottenham.
They may also need a new manager, Modric may agitate for a move again and there is no guarantee Emmanuel Adebayor will stay unless personal terms can be agreed. If the break-up of Tottenham's team of Champions League challengers is not handled carefully, the fall could be quite brutal. Last summer Levy merely needed resolve; these hazards will require real skill to negotiate.
