If he just posted the information he got straight up then whether it was right or wrong people would accept that he had posted news from a source he has in good faith. But all these cryptic clues just seem to be a cry for attention and that's why he gets abuse. Admittedly, some of it undeserved but I can understand it.

Tolmie told me about Abner, the young Brazilian left-back, privately the other week, and Abner's name didn't appear in the media ANYWHERE (even Brazil) until over 24 hours later. So how could Tolmie have known? Simple - he does get legitimate information from someone close to the club...

That's what I think people find annoying about it. He does have a genuinely good source but he has to go about sharing the information is his own silly way. Should just be upfront about it, or at least stop with the crappy videos.

It's all very well being professional & getting players in early but it makes for a pretty boring deadline day for us City fans. Bloody Spaniards ;)
Who cares how the info comes out? I'm sure he wouldn't want to lose his job or get whoever he gets his info from fired. I bring absolutely nothing to this forum like most people and don't expect anyone to tell me how to post, why should someone who actually contributes positive things get criticised for how he does it?

Tolmie contributes just as much as I do, i.e. fuck all. The difference is that I know my mommie loves me, so I don't need to WUM for the attention of anonymous strangers.

The difference between you and Tolmie is clearly that your mommy is still breastfeeding you.Sideshow Bob said:rick773 said:Who cares how the info comes out?

Abner who we've signed ?
Or Abner who we've been linked with by the papers (it has been well established that TH is a journo of some ilk, no ?)
So, to recapitulate, a rumour from TH, about something that has been made up about by TH, about someone who we haven't shown any concrete interest in.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
