It's been a while since I've flown with them, but I'm going with a them (way back) and American Airlines (way there) for a work trip at the end of this week. I had no choice sadly, but even booking the flight was a disaster as the website was constantly having intermittent outages. Clowns.

Same here. I'm travelling with them this Friday after vowing never to do so again. The website and app are utter shite.
AA is generally fine.

a shame because I used to use them all the time when possible with work both short and long haul. I think it went downhill when they stopped doing food and started charging a tenner for M&S sandwiches

flew to mexico last week with BA and the whole thing was a nightmare

delta is the best in my experience and will always go with them first

safe travels

Funnily enough I recently flew back from Cancun to Atlanta with Delta and weren't that impressed tbh but could have just been a bad day for them.

I dont get why he puts definitive time frames on things


Just makes him look silly when the info he got could have been decent

Not a winger, but Tamas Nikitscher is seemingly looking like a good possibility, especially with Kai Andrews being loaned out

Yeah this is it sadly for him. Could be legit interest, could have even flown in and signed and is yet to be announced but because of the timeline everyone will just take the piss.

Might just be excitement

tbf, im not going to doubt the fact hes got some form of source, more than prob most of us here, but just say "ive been told were signing someone in 48hours, but could end up being announced later etc, dont shoot the messenger"

also, he could love a wind up on here too

Time and time again, it's shown to be complete bullshit. And yet we have 15 pages.

As much credibility as big John H.

GIMOC - Used to get some good info but is way more miss than hit, shoots his load too early, makes himself look silly often then gets angry about it.

Saddle - Good for a team sheet (although that pisses some off), still gets more than GIMOC, occasionally gets fed some whoppers, person he gets info from definitely likes to feed shit with a negative slant often though.

Jimmy - Info is more concrete, get the feeling his source is more involved than the above. Doesn't really post with a slant, but holds a lot back. Which can be frustrating.

Fernando - Doesn't give much but when he does, its happening.

Parks - Is he suddenly getting some info or on the wind up?

I've just ben on the phone to Frank and he suggested that he's noted some things in training and is considering converting Brad Collins into a goalkeeper.

Not sure about this one tbh, but only sharing what he said.

I'll bet my thread turns out to be the most accurate of all but I'm only here for your benefit and so I'll not be bitter.

…of course the other thing that doesn’t work in GIMOC’s favour are the horrible posts he’s made in respect of things like Tats ‘breaking his back’

that type of information, even if accurate, should be kept off forums, there’s no need to share

Yes because that'll be 4 days, not 2.

His track record is pretty appalling.

If you start a thread 'Signing next 48hrs' - the expectation is that someone will be signed and announced in the next 48hrs.

That's not happened.

I can't understand why everyone is so literal.
An ITK can only repeat what they have been told but circumstances change all the time and no info comes with a guarentee.
If you don't want to read what they have to say, then don't.

Tbf I think ,most people are happy and content with that, information being wrong/things changing. Most people understand football. However Gimoc unlike Saddle and jimmy etc. never accepts when the information is wrong, and just disappears or goes on an outburst.
Some of his claims have been ludicrous at times, if you can’t either back the information or take some questioning when it’s wrong, then don’t claim to be ITK/post.

Even if it did occasionally turn out to be right, he hasn't actually said anything of substance. No name, no details, more of a 'ooh look at me I know something you don't know' so when that turns out to be bullshit... again ... then he deserves being called out on it.
