    You're probably right.

    I normally trust you on every word mate - proper reliable you are. But I just can't see the bit about waterbombs being true.

    Sorry to call you out on that, but ............ ;)

    The first reply to that was in a similar vein to some replies on here:

    That should be easy to clear up. When Schopp says it's down to fitness, a journalist can easily follow up with "so they're eligible to play then?" or "so they've had their international clearance". Similarly, when the coach says it's up to them, ask if he thinks there's a problem with attitude.

    They keep asking the same questions and getting the same answers.

    Some things I remember as facts on the BBS:

    - Certain players were never going to play for Adam Murray
    - Woodrow was being sold on three separate occasions
    - We would definitely be cashing in this Summer
    - Mowatt was definitely not being allowed to run his contract down and leave for free
    - We’re closing the Academy in 2020

    Oulare is a ‘Conway Signing’ even though he was originally pencilled in to arrive when Dane was CEO and Big Val was the gaffer. Apologies for feeling these rumours are a bit dubious.

    I think it's fair to say we've lost our in-the-know posters/sources and it appears to have been that way for some time now.

    The 'leaks' reduced drastically around the time Adam Hammill moved on. I'm still not sure if that's coincidence or not.

    I suspect it was someone who was mates with a certain former coach but I won't say any more than that :)

    - Adam Murray is a snake (*fact*) and all will come out one day (probably in 2037, on the 150th anniversary of the club; presser followed by tell-all book release and book signing in the Garrison with DT and his brother-in-law)

    I follow most rumours with interest but more than a pinch of salt. They stir a bit of debate and opinion. Nowt more.

    The only ones I retain an interest on are the ones where the "I know for a fact ......." posters follow it up with a source or evidence. They are rare indeed.

    In addition to the 5 you've just posted there are scores of others.
    Football fans love creating the beast and feeding it.
    The best one in my lifetime was, "They don't want to go up" in the summer of 1996.
    Plus ca change.....

    Would have to be seriously low on quality if they cant even make our bench, I just can't see that been the case. Both players have already played at a higher level than miller and adeboyejo probably ever will.
