I think its difficult for the ITK’s.

We all love their transfer snippets, team sheets divide opinion, and info on their personal life’s is off side for the majority.

It’s also difficult because most people who gossip do so about negative stuff and it’s normally agenda driven. Just think about people you know who gossip their gossip is never balanced and is nearly always negative. Therefore our ITK’s don’t get a balance of gossip and then they have to judge what’s fair to pass on and what isn’t. They won’t always get that right, none of us would.

I find the desperation that some fans have to be befriend players a little odd but i think its motivated by a desire to show off to their mates rather than anything else more sinister.

I do think our comms have improved under King but it was a very low bar under SISU, however this week is a good example Of where we could get it better. Widely leaked that we are appointing an assistant, and even someone named, yet the club say nothing. This leads to speculation, conspiracy theories etc which isn’t helpful.

Once it leaked i think the club needed to get ahead of it. If its not true make that clear, if it is true confirm we are looking at a changes in the back room instigated by Robins, but that its too early to confirm who that will be. They don;’t need to publish anything themselves, they just need to brief Andy Turner.

What's this thread about then ?
Don't you really hate it when you buy a house and the previous owner or more likely tenant has decided to paint everything in silk with a six inch brush and all the sockets are caked in it and then they've painted the woodwork with that absolute shite water based gloss bollocks. It's quicker to demolish the house and start again. .

Might be that intentionally false information is sent out at times, along with genuinely true stuff in between.

Classic counter-intelligence.

This this this and more of this.

Peddles absolute tripe to wind people up here. Never posts anything that can be definitely proven and the majority if not all of it is anti Doug King.

Earlier this year he “self revoked” his ITK status, now all of a sudden its back again but his hit rate is 0%

I know yea, utter tripe, remember when I said we were signing a young Swedish goalkeeper?

Remember when I said we won't get any loans as Doug refuses

Remember when I said Delaney was being promoted

Remember when I gave (and still do by DM To some) the correct team day before games

Remember when I said the kits last season were going to be late

Remember when I said we were signing Latibeaudiere

Remember when I said the Kits were gonna be White away and Black and gold third

Could go on but you'd look even sillier than you do now

0% hit rate though hey

Flid

The issue with you, and others crying like you do about myself, or GIMOC or whoever, isn't because we say what we say

It's because you don't like what we say. Numerous times on here i or others have been tarnished with 'youre talking shit' 'yea whatever mate' etc etc and numerous times been shown to be correct

I was replying to the actual post he made, not the issue of the appointment.

It was also somewhat satirical, in-keeping with I’m the ‘I nEeD tO kNoW!’ climate on here, so calm down.

'The appreciation' at the beginning of the book is well worth a read.

what are you defending, the fact you have information, or the non stop gossip, and the total lack of any filter between hearing said information & spewing it all over here?

1. Was reported in the swedish gossip columns linking us directly?
2. “Doug refuses” This cant be proven, all that can be proven is we dont currently have any loans in the team, but others on here have posted that we were looking at at least twoz. That cant be proven either obv.
3. Old Source
4. Who cares? Leaking a team teamsheet is very different to all the other things you claim to be in the loop on.
5. Old Source
6. Old Source
7. Others on here were there on kits first

Id argue you’re very rarely definitively shown to be correct.

Shows how often you're on here then as my first Dovin post was May

It can be proven - were the only club in the EFL without a single loan

You say old Source. That's not a rebuttal is it.

Again, Kits post was May

I could argue about this and give more examples all day if you like
