Da feck are you on about? You've just contradicted your own point. Any numpty can claim to be an ITK but nobody cares. When Romano posts it, it's legit and people react accordingly. If he was just making shit up, nobody would care when he finally gives the confirmation of the transfer.

Seriously have you paid attention to his tweets? He is anything but legit and just repeats the same thing over and over then pretends he was right.

I don't think he is ever first with anything and often copies other people's tweets

This has been proved so many times but for some reason people who follow him don't want to believe this

:boring:
 
Here we go ! False nine Romano to join United. Personal details agreed, he wrote his last tweet in Milano yesterday. Fee estimated at 20 millions mad reacts on social media.

Again, this makes no sense. If he's wrong, and constantly repeating that he's wrong - according to your logic, why would anybody pay attention to him? I'm not saying he has a red phone sitting in the boardroom of every club. But clearly he is very well connected. Whether that is to agents, players, or even just other journalists, he undoubtedly is well in the loop of many transfers.
 
So do you genuinely belive that he has inside info and access to every club and agent across the world in order to break this news?

Don't you find it odd that despite this unprecedented level of access to the inner workings of football across the world, he only has any news during transfer windows?

Never said any of that. But he clearly has connections- agents, players or even other journalists. I'm not saying he's always first with stories, or doesn't give too many updates. But people saying that he makes stuff up for clicks is just incorrect.
 
No. He's a fecking grifter. An aggregator. That's his tactic. Reword information found by other journalists, add vague, non disprovable tidbits, post the same Tweet several times over few days for maximum retweets.

His business model is grand and he's very successful at it but its getting to the point of arguing wrestling is real if you can't see that's what he does. If people genuinely think he randomly became the guru of world football transfers two or three years ago then I don't know what to say.

You either think this man is connected to every agent and every player at every club in every country and is therefore in a position to give exclusive scoops on every single major transfer in a way that you're not minutely suspicious about - or you think he's a grifter whose successfully made a name for himself cleverly exploiting social media and fans insatiable desire for transfer news.
Jesus why does it bother you so much? It's so odd with all ye Romano haters. He's taking advantage of his popularity and I say fair play to him, I'd be doing exactly the same thing in his position. Who knows how long his popularity will last? Take advantage of it while he can.
 
I'm not arguing that. I'm arguing with the view that people say he makes stuff up or embellishes stories for clicks. I say that's bs.
Sometimes he does share new information - he sure does. But it’s maybe 20% of tweets - others are just repeating and rephrasing previous ones more or less
 
Any chance we can just have a Romano thread so that everyone who wants to either lick his balls or wave around their massive hateboner for him can do so without the 95% of us who couldn't give a shit either way having to read about it?

SkySport is Italy so probably Di Marzio getting ahead of himself as usual.
 
mufcmpb are serial bullshitters and them saying Sky have said it doesn't mean that Sky have said it unless you've seen it direct from them.
 


Monday or Tuesday now. Bastards going to miss the plane

The article for this source was posted at roughly 3.35pm today which just after is the tier 1 and 2 journalists (Fabrizio, athleletic, standard etc) reported this.

Just aggregators rehashing old info.
 
We understand that announcement requires NYSE working hours, but medicals could have been done over the weekend
