cocncorde thrust levers

I know Concorde engines were FADEC. Were the Thrust levers gated like on Airbus? I noticesd cocncorde pilots shovved the levers forward for take off thrust..not the gentle easing forward like most other turbojets..why was there this need?Did they take too much time to spool up?
