Well to be fair we all have to acknowledge the trash info that comes from Twitter. When I think aparantly I think you heard from a friend who heard, or a taxi driver, another forum, a jurno friend like sterlings etc. Always good to give your source if you can that way no one questions your info in the future.

Yep. Just scrolling through his tweets he looks to be a bit hit and miss, seems on the money with some of his info - for instance seems to have had the inside track on our new bid for Gray. No idea who he is though.
 
I do allow consideration to others, in fact I'm happy to discuss this as there's no right or wrong. I think it's naive to think that not signing a player by the first game(s) will (might) cost us the play offs, but that's my view. Others are entitled to theirs. The analogy serves a purpose, but you're choosing to ignore it.

As I said, if you go undefeated after the window closes and still miss out on the Top 6, absolutely blame the losses before the window closed. Otherwise no loss is more or less the cause of your poor form. Getting players in early in the window is a great thing to do, absolutely, and I was critical of how late we left it to start signing players. But if there are losses or draws before/if/when Gray comes in, delaying bringing him in will (might) not decide our season.

I've but a couple of things in bold that might give you an idea of how you could better interpret what others are saying without being so damned black and white about it.
 
Twitter. Might want to look at my use of the word 'apparently'. I'm not stating anything as fact, just what I've read.

Oh come on, look back at the Twitter references. I mentioned your use of 'apparently', nothing's changed that I can see.

Ellewoods advice is sound; those Twitter posts say nothing anyone could not have posted without having a single shred of knowledge other than this thread. Reading back a bit would have made that obvious. Nothing wrong with the conversation, just some of the content.

OLM posts things far more 'factually' than me in the General Transfers Thread but if I question his sources I'm out of order.

Take it up with him, others have and he responded if you want to read back a tad (so your opinion is better informed).

Yep. :) Fair enough.
