TransferSecrets seemed decent til he tweeted a rumour about Valencia to Liverpool earlier.
 
I believe Top is gonna moderate this thread, so I'm leaving this to him.

Just also noticed that I've 2 stickied threads in the transfer forums, which makes me the ultimate muppet king.

Not really, your more of a Muppet treasurer, so sayeth the Muppet King!

Dont why but M Vila reminds a bit of Djemba Djemba before joining us - will history repeat itself?

They tend to get some stuff right especially that fourth official, although they sometimes do state the obvious.

Hmmm...

So can we conclude that the only people worth reading on Twitter are three or four blokes who sometimes "get stuff right" (with no concrete examples of same) admidst loads of tweets stating the obvious and dozens of journalists who would publish anything interesting in their newspaper anyway?

I know I'm getting a reputation for constantly hating on twitter for no good reason but threads like this really do it no favours.

In the 47+ pages of this thread, has any confirmed transfer been tweeted about before the mainstream media got a hold of it?
 
Ah, fair does. Still, probably clichy to city or something. Or a rehash of the mirror shitstorm.

Isn't it pretty much the exact same deal with a lot of the newspapers though, especially the tabloids, which constantly have stories posted in here? It's blatantly obvious that they make stuff up a large amount of the time, and just the odd time they get a scoop right. For what it's worth, I'm fairly convinced Darren Can doesn't make stuff up for the sheer feck of it, whereas I'm convinced that the tabloids do.

COCK OUT

I will go out on a limb here and say this is going to be a load of underwhelming shite.

This is true. Good point.
