Apologies to those who believed the Marcondes thread, it was a wind up (someone spotted it aswell on thr thread fair play)

Wanted to see how long it would take George Smith to post it and see if we can find who he is on here.

Unfortunately he didn't bite as per below.




Il be serious for a minute regarding transfers genuinely heard fuck all other than wanting Dovin to be done before we go to the Spanish training camp next week

Ooh you big tease. People will be pissed you wasted their time, when we could have been wasting time on the other rumour threads or guessing where Cal probably won't go. Shame on you....

I'm expecting some abuse tbh, as I say apologies to those who may have passed any info on.

But as I say, my info has been pretty poor this summer in general, heard nothing more than wanting Dovin in before we go abroad

Feel like your lying to save face cos your source fucked you over again

Stick to rumours. Don't need you to be an investigator

Wasting our time at this point mate.

I can assure you I'm not lying. It was a 100% wind up. Couple of posters on here were in on it

Entirely my idea - thought Saddle would be more believable.

Private messaged him yesterday with the idea. This one is all on me.

apologies SBT

I wish… my only source into football is a guy who works at Barnsley. We’re not close enough for him to tell me about Kitching or Collins last year though….

Why does it matter if some teenager is selectively copying what you write and popping it on X ? It’s a sort of compliment …..

Forgiven saddle, although I took the bait, made out I was an ITK and put in the group chats and subsequently look like a complete fraud...fully deserved and never again.

Well it is when you phone people and tell them what you've heard .

So il take that on board for future reference that I need to remember that some fans might be joking around and not bother engaging on their nonsense

Also, I’m not sure if there’s a wind-up inside the wind-up but @procdoc actually agreed with me on something? I didn’t I’d ever see the day, tears of joy (I assume he was in on it though? Or was he actually being genuine?)
