Zatman Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Seriously think the Mirror should be a blacklisted source as they are 100000% wrong on most things plus gives that word removed Oliver Holt some publicity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zapbranny Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 This site is interesting in providing some analysis to how much bollocks each paper makes up. http://www.footballtransferleague.co.uk/newspaper_statistics.aspx The Mirror should also be banned as well, total crap. I can't recall them getting one right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMFy Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 What about the Mirror? :shock: Surely has to be a far worse source than any of the above?! Was just about to put this, I don't think it's ever got anything correct with regards to speculation, nothing speculated in there ever comes true. Please add the Mirror. They're a gnat's goolies away from double decker bus on the moon stories... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Question for the collective; eyefootball.com - acceptable or horseshit? Arguments against: - I've never heard of it before - Sheer volume of transfer related articles raises suspicion Arguments for: + Transfer related articles are written by a small team of "journalists" and not submitted by Joe Public + Articles are coherent and actually contain a bit of meat (e.g. more interesting than the Mirror's 'one sentence comprises an entire article' approach) + Articles written from other sources are detailed as such and not passed off as the site's own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Perhaps ITKs should also be added. People claiming they know someone who works in the club blah blah, often turns out to be rubbish. Only recently returned to the forum after a long exile and it seems there is even more gossip and rumour then before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonLax Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 A lot of football fan sites don't allow speculation from the Mirror. I think it is a sound policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatbarrier Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Time to add Twitter, I reckon. Well overdue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted June 1, 2012 Moderator Share Posted June 1, 2012 Time to add Twitter, I reckon. Well overdue. You can't start a speculation thread based on a tweet so it is already 'banned' in that sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunRickyRun Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Can we ban The People after this At least 3 things wrong, all in the same article. Surely a record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gompedyret Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Agreeing with spacehead. A return of the ITK thread would be great, if not for anything else than entertainment. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Must admit I'm very underwhelmed by the pending signing of Kieran Richardson. I thought he was a decent enough player about 8 or 9 years ago but not sure he's the answer to our left back problem.... I suppose its where we're at..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strog Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 It would be good to add Sky Sports to this. They spout utter bunkum most of time, not just about Villa either 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
