I'd just lock the Transfer forum. Many can't seem to grasp what rumours, gossip and speculation mean.

Players are always the last to know about anything regarding transfers.
Whereas TH does know but is not in a position where he can pass the information on.
Which leaves him with two choices -
Not post at all or do so in the form of allusion.
Fair play to him for choosing the latter, a courtesy that most appreciate.
Unfortunately there's always some hysterical virgins that ruin it.
How do you know he knows?
Because I do.
Personally I can't be arsed with all the nudge-nudge wink-wink nonsense that goes on in here (doesn't bother me but it's not my thing) so I'll state very clearly that I have no intention of stating how I know. It is not for me to say.
But I should amend my words there because I realise in the transfer forum the word 'know' is God. He 'knows' a damn sight more than most of us.
So if someone cracks one of his Youtube riddles and figures out that we're interested in player X then City are indeed interested in player X.
To what extent that interest amounts to is entirely down to interpretation.
That's all it boils down to but isn't that a good thing in itself?
Why do people get themselves so worked up about it and castigate someone who is a decent source?
Mark summed it up perfectly a few posts ago. People go to such extremes over TH it's ridiculous.
the root of BM discontent is the lack of signings not the lack of ITKsLoveCity said:Not a great summer for ITKs in general. MCRJON got 2/3 (Cunningham to Bristol City, Roman to Barca, but the £78,000/week signing never happened), Akai called Omar Abdulrahman, I think Tolmie called Kompany's contract... but a lot of promises and hints (DEFCON, bombs...) haven't really resulted in anything.

Who do you feel bad for ? Tolmie for getting the shit thrown at him or someone who went and took a gamble at the bookies ??
Feel bad for the man who lost his savings!
ITK drama happens every summer. Tolm is a big boy, he can handle it.

I have a reservation over his ability to work alongside players he dislikes and how we cast they away. Not a problem here but at other clubs I am sure he would have to work with them or at least try to for a longer period. I got called a rag, despicably I must add. I was accused of being a an alias for some Billy guy and also for HOMESLICE. Bang out if order, I asked mods to check ips to prove I wasn't these people and they did fuck all yet they protect TH.
FBloke gets a torrent of abuse and recieves no protection as somebody else said. Why so precious about Tolmie? I like TH but his cryptic clues open him up for such abuse. Vague posts about players who fo the heart thing, everyone thinks Bale and he meant Alacantra. Whhy not 2 vids like a Flamenco dance and then the Heart video? Hazard was way off and we pulled out week before Chelsea signed him yet we were told we were right in for him. I'm not knocking TH but I will say he jumps the gun by posting premature info. We've been linked with Muller, Lowandowski, Alacantra, Cheick Tiote (Cheick he posted before), RVP and were told Bombs were imminent. Little has happened and yet mods scratch their heads why people are sceptical and frustrated. Yet again I reaffirm TH is a sound poster by my reckoning but if he was on the pull and his efforts so far were to go by then he'd be going by himself with his right hand looking very attractive.
Let's not forget TH is only as good as his source btw, any personal attacks show lack PF intellect in looking at the bigger picture.

So was Tolmie at fault for someone alledgedly losing £500,or the person who placed the bet and lost.Straight forward question.
