Jose Mourinho signs new contract at Inter Milan!!

What??????

According to about 3000 threads over the last 6 months Jose was coming to us.

What happened - he says there was a 99.99% chance he would stay with Inter and a 0.01% chance that he would go to Madrid? What about us?

Surely all those posters that have gone on and on and on about him coming to us weren't just spouting total bollocks??

Never, nicko! At least they'll never admit they were spouting bollocks!..:0)

He was never coming here, he's beyond taking on a club at our present level, that would have been the Mourinho of the Porto era (and the José of that time would have been slagged off by the same posters for being 'unproven' as a top line manager at that stage, lol!).

I seriously doubt he ever talked to us but even if he did, it was just a negotiating ploy to get a better deal.

Agreed...

Still the ITK'ers capture the imaginations of the more impressionable amongst us.

I would say their posts are valued by a variety of posters, impressionable, and not.
 
Guess he wanted to come to use but heard our owners were backing Hughes so had little choice but to accept 2nd best and sign on again at Inter.

Really? I wonder why anyone would value someone posting incorrect information about some future event...i suppose its the same as those people who read tabloid paper exclusives about City and get all excited...

The only difference being the tabloids are occasionally right...

We never made him an offer!

Was a tongue in cheek post about him being disapointed we didnt go for him :)
 
I really hope this stops ZZ posting his nonsense on here. Surely he'll be too embaressed to show his face again? Then again, he'll probably sprout some crap about the deal being agreed then collapsing at the last minute, like he usually does!

Entertaining posts by the two main ones, and regularly provide food for thought.

Much rather read that than reams of ITK detectives.

I think if I wanted to read other peoples creative writing, I would join a creative writing messageboard.

And a little trick for you. The resident ITK's are AJay and the Messiah. You can always just find their posts using the search facility bluemoon has, thus avoiding reading the posts of those who are critical of them...

And when they get bored of the detectives and stop posting???

Heres a hint for you, if you don't want to read Zin Zimmer and Ajay, put them on a foe setting and let those that want to, to do so.

Follow your own advice mate and avoid reading their posts, instead of going on and on and on and on and on etc etc etc

Are you suggesting that those who don't agree with them should have their views censored???

Defeats the purpose of a messageboard - or so you keep telling us...

Actually, I'd rather read what they post, and then question the validity of it. Isn't that the whole point of these messageboards?

I've said that I prefer their posts, to the likes of yours.

Where does that suggest censorship?

Okay, then what were you inferring when you asked what would happen when they got bored of the people who question the voracity of their information?

I still read any old shit posted on here, who knows what you might miss.

I wasn't inferring anything, I was responding to your question.

Saw it mate and your talking bollocks!

You have an opinion and guess what, thats fine i respect your opinion!

We have our opinion, guess what, get over it and respect it!

Argument still stands though pal, if you dont like what they say ignore it and move on instead of making it your lifetimes work to irradicate peoples views who you happen to disagree with!
 
moomba said:

You responded with an open ended question, which I think was rhetorical.

Anyway, what I don't understand, genuinely, is why ITK's are such sacred and precious creatures. After all, if someone posts that Elano is shit, and someone else posts stats proving that the statement is in fact false, that is not considered "detective" work. Just healthy debate. I think there are some double standards at work here...
