    Somebody on the facebook forum just posted a pic of a bloke at Brough station who has turned up with a CSKA bag with LS. No idea who it is like.

    You post this **** all the time, despite the fact that he has by far the best record on transfers of any football journalist.

    Just makes you look daft.

    No I think you look daft, he gives opinions which he knows will please supporters. This isn't even about whether some rumour turns out true of not, I'm talking about his hype.

    He's been on the money most if not all the time with regards our transfer activity. No hype, just fact.

    This is the pic, any ideas? Had a look at CSKA players, Georgi Milanov is the one it most looks like to me, he's a winger. That said it could just be some random Russian fan.

    He has a Twitter feed, people can read what he's said and see how accurate his posts are, his hit rate is a fact, not an opinion.

    If your aim is to generate web clicks, you tweet about the top four clubs, not Portsmouth players who are interesting Coventry ffs.

    So we've had a worldie then, that means guaranteed promotion otherwise how could it not be that. Nixon has forecast everyone, Nixon's opinion is FACT, ULM says so.

    I don't normally follow Sun journalists, but Nixon is usually first to tell us the news.

    He's only reporting what he knows and hears, most of the stuff turns out to be right. He's very well connected in football and one of the few twitter accounts you can take seriously.

    My mate works for News Corp. The Sun might be a lot of things, but, as he says, their sports journo's, Nixon in particular, are as reliable as any of them.

    I have a couple of friends who are in journalism, one works in the sports column at the Ipswich Star and he gets most of the transfer news from AN. They have to name drop 'The Sun' but you get the idea.

    Musa isn't good enough for the Premier League because his touch is utterly horrific but once he's got it under control he can be frightening. He's a real confidence player though. You'll need to pick him up.
