But I didn’t comment about the journo aspect or people “licking balloons”, just the fact that you belittled a publication that for many was the only media outlet that kept us informed when we were at selhurst.Greenie Junior said:
I’m not putting down ricks part he played in the valley party etc, my point I was making was that when you have a platform that rick does where people hang off his every word, then you have to be more responsible with the information given, saying ‘done deal’ when it isn’t - and you know it isn’t - is poor form. If Richard Cawley done the same he’d get absolute pelters.alan dugdale said:The silly little fanzine that played a big part in getting back to The Valley ?
Saying ‘that’s not how journalism works’ or whatever don’t cut the mustard, it’s not like he’s breaking the news for a major national news outlet, he’s doing it for a fanzine. Without stating all facts sending charlton fans into histeria. If ‘Doucher’ had stated two points that airman has as a fact, then it turned out to be wrong, the same mob licking airman’s balloon not would be hanging doucher out to dry.
And in my opinion Doucher and airman are no different, just some blokes who support charlton who claim to be in the know.
The rest was just me winding up the brown nosers ha
No social media in those days.4 -

A gentlemen's agreement with a Man as unhinged as Duchatelet is a long way from crossing the line imo.
Stating otherwise is a foolish stance to take.
Maybe the sources are getting ahead of themselves (sounds like the Aussies have multiple times through the process already) but it's a major positive IMO that similar noises are coming from other places now too.

Writing, editing and laying out a fanzine is far more demanding than writing a blog.

Just scrolled through, and only thing I could see was him saying he’d been told the deal had been ‘agreed’. Which is very different to you saying done deal.Airman Brown said:
And yet RIch Cawley has tweeted that he had been told exactly that on Thursday morning. The point you overlook is that we know who our sources are.Greenie Junior said:

This is an evolving situation but I don’t doubt the sources’ good faith or that they are in a position to know what they are talking about, but the nature of the business is that this can’t be shared.
Twitter has its limitations but as soon as practical I expanded on it here.
In regards to twitter having limitations, it may do but it has enough characters for you to say ‘price agreed, just minor things to get over’, rather than a cut and dry done deal. The way you put the information out was disingenuous and I don’t think there’s a valid argument to say otherwise5 -
Right or wrong I personally appreciate any information that is put out there by those in the know.
It is unfair however, that some of the people defending Airman are the same people who instantly dismiss Doucher whenever he posts what he has been told.4 -

It's pretty feeble timing by the anti Rick brigade. Very disappointing.

I’d be very worried if our new owners were upset about someone tweeting done deal.
I’d like to think they were grown up business people and not the sort of people to act like a flipping child who’s thrown their toys out.
Had enough of those sorts already. Bit like a play ground in here.
Grown men... honestly.

If you can keep your head when all about you are loosing theirs and blaming it on you - If you can trust yourself when some on CL doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too - If you can wait for news of the takeover but not go crazy by waiting - If you can dream of knights in white armour saving your team but don't make dreams your master. - If you think of not conceding late goals but realized that this thought is unlikely - If you meet with few triumphs and many disasters but treat those two impostors just the same - If you can stand on street corners selling your fanzine and keep your virtue, or talk with people ITK but keep the common touch - If you can be the messenger and not fear the imminent bullet while conveying the news. - yours is the valley and everything that's in it, and which is more, it will be a done deal and you will be a man my son.13
