On the subject of 5knuckleshuffle:
Pretty much all of the information that he posted on the Kaka deal turned out to be true. We went there presuming the deal had been done, only for Kaka and Berlusconi to back out at the last minute. Dida was also mentioned in the Kaka deal. Gattuso was not mentioned in any press/sources.
Hughes himself has said that we spoke to Senna.
About the Robinho thread that appeared the day after the incident, he first posted the exact details of the incident which had people wondering. It turned to bullshit because I happened to know somebody who works on the bar in Space and they absolutely assured me that it was crap. After speaking to them today, they have told me that they were told to keep their mouths shut by the owner and by the Police, and he didn't want to risk his job. This did not however, stop me from coming on here, calling 5KnuckleShuffle a bunch of names including "rag, liar, bullshit merchant, etc" and postulating that he was making things up for attention. We have seen today that the facts as he posted were correct. He PM'ed me his source and I looked in to it, and it turns out his source (as he named them) was accurate.
The reason I post now is to make a frank apology to him and to say that I was wrong, and he was right. I thought I had a nailed on source for the incident, and it turns out that I didn't. If anybody doesn't believe him due to my words in the former Robinho thread, I ask them to think again.

There are many many rumours concerning him and where he will be in the future. There is no smoke without fire. i just hope we don't fuck this one up like we did with Kaka.
