    I don't understand why people are defending posters who are potential liars. 'It's a rumours thread, they're posting rumours aren't they?'. Bit of a ridiculous mindset when anyone can just make it up on the spot and say they have a contact, I would prefer these types to be caught out and not post again. Picking on their spelling and in general harassment is not ok, but liars/ attention seekers should be called out. It certainly would be outside of the forum, I.e. if people were saying these links at a pub or what have you, so I don't see the difference here.

    If you come on this thread and have been told we are in for a player by someone you know who has connections then I thank you, as it's certainly something I don't have access to. If you are just chucking names on here to get your like count up or 'bait' people then I'm sorry, but you're just an utter weirdo and need to take a look at how you're spending your time 
    I accept what you’re trying to say but unfortunately, if there are people making stuff up which would be a bit sad, there is no way of knowing. There are posters on here who do have good contacts and others who for whatever reason might just get a random snippet. Those people are also getting grief and some have stopped posting because of it. Not everything even the itk posters is going to come off. If it was Steve Gallen posting, not everything would come off. Surely it’s not hard to read and take the posts for what they are. Rumours. Believe and reject without calling someone out. If you want it cast iron then I suggest WIOTOS
    I thought the thread was entitled rumours. By definition, not all will come off. Of course there is the potential for some to make stuff up which is pathetic, but we should also give people the benefit of the doubt and not jump all over them as some are prone to do, which I think is a bit self entitled of them.
  • This coming week will see some movement.

    I hope so, Ex-Lax has not been working.
  • ITK.
    The problem then is do you feel you should share it or not ? 

    Chuks Aneke medical condition was an issue, I personally wouldn't share, as well as a young player who failed a medical at one club yet was signed by another club a week later. I decided to keep my lips sealed which is difficult for a soapbox person.

    The Rumours page can be entertaining, petty, childish and pompous; this is why I enjoy this thread so much !

    Please carry on posting as I can normally work out the joke ones: Ibe's from H, and JFC to Birmingham from *addick56. Both were feasible in a bizarre way because Jordan Ibe has a connection with Cafc from being a school boy and JFC was rated by Lee Bowyer.
    From memory the only player signed when having an ACL injury was Van Nistelrooy at United when Ferguson thought it was worth sticking with the deal and he was proved correct. Jake is no Ruud, so he would've to prove himself when he is fit before getting a contract anywhere other than Cafc.

    Jordan Ibe's maybe had too much too soon and the luxury cars become the raison d'être for being a professional footballer ?  

    Carry on spreading the gossip, because occasionally you may be spot on with your Neighbour's, brother's dentist from Cambridge who said that Paul Mullins is a done deal and will be announced on Monday.

    *Addick 55, 56 or 59 did the rumour about JFC, can you please change you moniker to a players name, your own name, or a porn star so I can remember. Cheers.
    I did think about the chucks info before posting but his transfer to Birmingham wiukd have revealed it anyway and I can’t see how having one condition or another is really going to matter - personally it may help people u derstanf that he isn’t ‘taking the piss’ 
  • This coming week will see some movement.

    I hope so, Ex-Lax has not been working.
    Wonder how many more jokes or dare i say puns  can be thought up regarding laxatives and movements, certainly might bring a flush of success to proceedings

    I personally think you can tell, every season it becomes obvious who is just throwing names out there for the sake of it.

    People who are getting grief and have genuine intel and not posting cause of it, I don't know what to say. I don't think I've ever seen someone who is actually itk be picked on consistently. The Steve Gallen example just doesn't apply here. If SG posted on here (why am I even typing this haha) it would be a genuine link and would mean the fall through would be down to a breakdown in communications. When X poster posts said made up rumour on here there is no substance, just them looking for attention or to get a rise. It's sad and should be flushed out imo. The only thing more annoying than these types of posters is when the thread completey goes off topic.

    I'll have to admit maybe false rumours are a bit more personal for me as generally speaking I just can't stand liars, either way I don't think someone who has consistently been telling porkies should be defended. 

    Lastly of course it's not hard to recognise which posts seem genuine and which aren't but back to my last post, I find it annoying how people decide to come on here and post lies.

    Sorry to derail the thread, as we were

    Yes    and     no.
    are you sure ?
  • For what it's worth, I think Cawley has denied all the players I have asked him about that we were linked with previously. He didn't deny Scott Fraser...

    Maybe he just likes saying no to you.

  • Things must be pretty tough at the moment as even NA mentioned early last week that we should get 2 or 3 announced but it turned out 1. Hopefully we get a few this week as a new squad will surely need a few weeks to bond and it will be a shame if we dont get 3 points first game back at the valley presumably with TS in attendance due to players not really being familiar with eachother
  • Quiet day huh.

    I think we will see a few come in this week, not ITK at all by the way.

    Remember It's still just under 5 weeks until our first league game against Sheffield Wednesday and we have plenty of warm up games in order to get the squad together.

    It will be interesting to see how Weds line up considering their current problems.

    Bad time to say we’re signing Mbappé on Wednesday? Two year deal. £7000 a week! 
    No thanks. Way overpriced based on his euro performances
  • 2/3 this week would be perfect 
  • @Addicks59

    What did you add earlier? I lost the post?!

    Want to make sure we're keeping track.


    I think Tucker was one.

    So has Paul Mullin been announced on the O.S?

    Nice backtrack on the Pigott.

    What is that about Moses?

  • That last post was for dazzler21 and thanks for kind comments.

    Mullins in sat was it.Boyle going to Oxford.Tucker was at the club on sat for a chat with nige and to be shown around BUT no agreement on fee as yet.I think
    How can Jack Tucker be being shown around if we haven't agreed a fee with Gillingham? He's under contract until the summer of 2022 with them, would be pretty weird if we haven't agreed to sign him and he would be chatting to a different clubs manager and be being shown around..

    Infact is that even legal, surely a breach of contract?

    Not picking at you but you said earlier the 3 we were signing were Mullin, Boyle and Tucker now you say Oxford for Boyle. I guess things have changed.

    I think the club (Gills) can give permission.
