    Nothing to do with shirt sponsor it is a partner that has pulled out I have been told and by all accounts there are a few people in the club that are disillusioned. 
    What?????  If people  are disillusioned now, after going through the last couple of years maybe they are in the wrong job, Although TS does come across as a tyrant doesn’t he? Honestly there are some really pony rumours coming out, maybe southall is coming back aswell!!.

    In answer to your question I got 4 out of the 5 I mentioned correct how did you do zilch have a pop at someone else or do not comment on my post.All my comments have been double checked before I put anything out in the public domain if you do not believe me that is your problem.When I came onto this site I under the impression it was a rumours thread have I learnt if it isn't my spelling it is questions about what I have written I am in a very lucky position I know a lot of people very close to the club.

    Can you explain why there are people in the club apparently disillusioned?

    No more Oasis on tap.

    Ive also heard we have a foward / winger very close should be confirmed early next week. Its a name that im sure has been mentioned in despatches before, the person who told me dose not work for the club anymore but claims that one that has told him still does. So im guessing its the same bloke as others have been told. 
    Any clues… pleeeease?!

    My post about piggott was not hard to understand was told we where interested this will make you laugh. He has interest from championship hardly sign for us.Reference Moses I said told we where interested in him but was wrong he has gone elsewhere
    Sorry old pal but what you are telling us does not appear to be very accurate.
    I am not having a dig and not discouraging you.
    I'm simply summarising what I think you've told us.

    We were signing Pigott but now apparently you were joking.
    JFC was going to Brum, but now apparently someone was pranking you.
    We were interested in Moses yet he had apparently signed for Spartak Moscow for £4.2M.
    You say we signed Mullin on Saturday. Cawley says we aren't interested.
    Tucker is being shown around Charlton, though Gills haven't agreed a fee and at one point you said he'd signed.
    You implied Schwarz has gone (anybody else heard Ronnie has gone?)
    You've said we weren't in for Boyle, then you said we were, then you said he's going to Oxford.
    We were signing Freddie Ladapo.
    4 out of 5 right you say?
    I'll just leave this 8 you got wrong here.
    You'll need to be a bit sharper if you think everyone will forget what you said.

    Fella don’t overstep, everyone is a fan of this club otherwise it would be quite sad for someone to be commenting on a bloody forum they don’t care about. There’s no league table or prize for best fan on here, nobody should be justifying why they are a good fan.I don’t think anyway!!😂. Just chill a bit.

    If some people at the club have expressed disappointment or disillusionment with something, it is probably best not to know who they are. If there are that is. No need to attack Addicks 59 and probably go in a direction we don't need to.

    No one is attacking him.
    They are simply correcting him and assisting his poor memory.
    Plus if you throw in a stink bomb, like some staff are disillusioned and then run off refusing to elaborate, it's reasonable that people are allowed to ask for more information, unless we are supposed to simply accept everything we are told without question.

    Yeah, but it's a Rumours thread.

    The fella came up with some rumours. If some of them didn't come off for whatever reason, so what?
    That's the nature of a rumour.

    Shortage of vol-au-vents at the club?

    I've not attacked him just asked what the reasons are behind the people at the club being disillusioned. Don't want to know who they are but it's more than fair to ask why these people feel like that now and are prepared to tell someone that's how they feel. It's quite a big statement to make to be just left there.

    Not sure about that,  if it's someone we've been interested in for a while (Kirk, Randell etc..) I'd prefer them to Ibe as they will be an instant impact. Ibe hasn't played consistently for a while and will likely take longer to get match sharp

    We can all just make rumours up Oggy. 

    I heard we are trying to resign Karlan Grant on loan as he’s out of favour at West Brom and they want to get a portion of his wages off the books but won’t let him go to a Championship club. Sunderland are interested but he favours coming back to London. 

    There we go. Done. A rumour. Complete bollocks with no substance behind it though and if I’m going to pass my time making stuff up on the internet I should expect to be called out on it when it doesn’t come true. Especially if I’m then going to fabricate being right about things I wasn’t even right about.

    This particular individual’s posts bear a lot of the hallmarks of previous posters who have eventually ended up banned from the site. I don’t think posters like this do anything to enrich the forum. Just my opinion.

    That's fair enough, Exiled. I get what you are saying.

    But it seems to me that there are many posters who read a rumour on here; and when it doesn't materialise into a signing within 24hrs or whatever, go ballistic attacking the poster/TS/the club in general/or whoever conveniently is at hand.

    A rumour is only a bit of gossip/chinese whispers/a bit of fun to pass the time while we wait for an actual signing.
    A rumour is not a fact, though. Facts, an actual completed signing, will have it's own thread.

    This is the rumours thread. That's all it is. I wish we could keep it as a bit of fun.

    It would be fine if the instigator was a long term poster and didn't keep using the American spelling of common English words.

    Unless his contact lives in Colorado of course.

    To be fair, he did tell us that he was dyslexic and spelling was a big challenge. And so what if he's using a spellchecker, which no doubt defaults to American spelling?
