Business will pick up again, when Arsenal have finally sorted out their mess. A lot of selling teams in particular seem to try and use them as leverage. That threat will not be very believable, once/if Arsenal get Mkhitaryan and Aubameyang.
 


I said the other day that if the Sanchez deal comes down to the Gunners to get a replacement over the line then their incompetence can not be underestimated at all.

We would do better to get Woody to sign Malcom himself and then loan him to Arsenal for 5 years!
 
Why are sport witness and indy football not on the banned tweet list?

They contain about as much legit info as @Acquire Me
why would you want to ban sport witness? they translate foreign papers and fact check claims made by english newspapers when they make up bull based on foreign reports. They're quite good to filter out crap.

IndyFootball aren't banned because they're part of a newspaper.

Yeah it's been explained to me already but thanks.

I'd ban indy football because i don't think they have ever predicted a correct transfer in their lives. Although having said that i just scroll past the idiots usually so it shouldn't bother me at all.
 
Sport witness basically just check the validity of others tweets no?

Yeah. But during the LvG saga, they were terrible to the point of being ABU. Kept ignoring clearcut evidences of Jose being tipped to be the next manager by pooh-poohing the sources, while endorsing the biased de Telegraaf articles on van Gaal staying which were written by his friend Marcel van der Kraan. And arguing with anyone who pointed it out. Basically, they wanted LvG to stay and would spin any story to that end.

I'd say they are hit or miss depending on their agenda, but of late, they have been good.

Yeah, sorry I missed the posts above.

I mean you can ask the mods, but they are a newspaper and they do have contacts, maybe not contacts related to United, but contacts nontheless. They're a serious newspaper and not like the chancers that are on the banned list.

It's run by United fans, mostly.

To be fair it doesn't bother me that much. I don't spend a lot of time in the football forum for my own sanity really. I do vaguely remember that there were certain twitter accounts that were banned due to their ITK rubbish and was just wondering why those 2 i mentioned weren't on the list. But now i know.

You're probably better off, I feel like I have stockholm syndrome at times. I think Raoul removed actual newspapers from the banned list sometime last year.
 
How reliable is Matt Law?

Have we a rankings system anywhere actually? Maybe a tier system of how reliable journalists are in relation to United?
 


I remember when he signed for Arsenal Wenger went on about how he could be their Rooney, and a few pundits fooled themselves into thinking he was a bigger prospect than Wayne.

I laughed then, and 12 years later and nearly 150 goals less than what Rooney scored for United, I'm still laughing.

I imagine it's a good signing for Everton though.
