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.
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.
No, he told me specifically that Coritiba's sporting director was in Manchester for talks. Which was confirmed by ESPN Brazil a couple of days later. This news was nowhere in the world's media before Tolmie mentioned it.
