    You're not suggesting that fans forums are some kind of oracle are you?

    I just googled the club name and it didn't take long to find a load of Twitter postings reporting the match as it went on. Included times of goals and scorers and the lineups for each half. Maybe the person mentioning Ranger and Frimpong had his facts wrong. Who knows...

    Anyone else go on to the forum and see how large Tomlin looked in their friendly? I know he's always been slightly heavier but to spend that amount and for him to look like that, I wouldn't be too happy

    Yes he is/was last week. Maybe they made a quick decision so he's doing the rounds of any club that will look at him

    Frimpong might end up a decent championship player. Ranger is dreadful, and a bad person

    Pretty sure Ranger signed for Southend last week. I think the Twitter post you've taken this from may be a wind-up.

    You might be right but there must be a connection with the players, otherwise why mention those two names?

    I'm not a member of the twitterati and only usually read it in relation to Yorkshire cricket matches where it is written by someone giving genuine updates on selections and the score.

    The Bristol one was connected with the Bristol Post (I think) and gave quite detailed informtation about the match and photos of the fans there.

    Ok, if that is true then more fool me for being so gullible. I must admit it was hard to believe when I saw it.

    All such "journalistic gems" will be treated with the contempt they deserve in future :)

    Good point. Perhaps some of our Twitter troops might like to make that point, if they really are laughing.
