It is easy, if you dont believe certain posters or rumours just ignore it

If it takes over the forum, stay off it for a bit

Some will post what theyve heard because:
- they know its fact because they have 1st hand information
- a reliable source has told them info n they want to share it
- they've heard a rumour but not sure on reliability of it but share it anyway
- want to stir things

You just need to either ignore them or decide what one of the above you think it is

I like folk sharing information, i never ever take it as fact tho
Don’t bite to it mate. It’s obviously someone who is a bit jealous, they are probably someone who’s set up another login.
 
I'm perfectly calm Hamish. You appeared to be riled right up about the fact people aren't following you on your "let's slag the ITKs" approach. You went out on a limb, no-one followed and now you're choosing that very odd hill to die on. If you think what I've said is abuse then you're in for a treat....
You aren't calm, you took offence by the simple statement that a lot of so called ITk's had egg on their faces, which is true.
 
I understand people being cynical or not trusting the club and even being critical at the club over a bast number of things that deserve it but by christ RTG is so ignorantly overly negative tonight I can't cope.

The mind boggles sometimes
 
Its hard to not pay any attention to it when it's all that has been posted since Dodds got the job. And again 99% of it is pure fantasy , back tracking so that certain posters feel important.
Tbf mate, barely any media were reporting the Still was close to Sunderland, a few on here said it was close, I think it would be fair to say that we were close to getting him which was widely reported once the deal had fallen through, if it had went the other way and we got it over the line then we would of heard it here before any media reported it. Only thing that didnt turn out to be the case was Magnus being certain it was done, but it does feel/sound from the media like we were close. Scout also said that Still was allowed to bring in multiple staff, which Id say the majority, me included, didnt think that would be case when the next appointment was made, but Romano (as credible as you can probably hope for) has reported multiple staff changes will be happening.

I dont agree that all of it is fantasy as you say, some of the above is pretty specific claims which have turned out to be plausibly true (we can of course never know for certain).

Feels like you dont like these kind of posts, which is fair enough, but even if they end up not being true, it adds a bit of convo to the thread to debate and have a bit of speculation during the off season which Ive enjoyed over the past couple of months. Each to their own though :emoticon-0148-yes:
 
Jealous because I don't spout information which is wrong to make me feel more important on a message board?

That would only work if everyone were strangers ...

... most of us know each other and meet up at matches, so things are no different in real life.

There was around 100 at the pre-match pub for the play-off final, no one is any different to anyone else.

Slightly unfair, I feel. There are any number of reasons why the information people pass on might not come to pass, including, admittedly, the last part of your last sentence.

I am often surprised, however, by what people are prepared to believe and what they're not.
