VillanousOne Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I think this forum is riddled with people who could win 50% of the lottery jackpot and still complain because it was only half. Jeez, get a life and take it for what it is SPECULATION! Those who hate Twitter ITKs have as much a right to say that as those who dont. The Twitter thing is out of hand. They do but to state that Twitter rumours should be banned from a rumour thread is also out of hand. Everyone knows that 99% of the shit on Twitter is just that. But it's still fun to debate. Maybe, but it wouldn't hurt to have it on a different thread either. I think what gets me slightly is people don't treat ITKs as shite or a bit of fun speculation not be taken seriously. People very much take them seriously and when you have a thread that goes on as long as these do, it's hard to know where the speculation people are talking about (on page 50 came from), which in most cases is a Twitter ITK posted 30 pages previous!!! I don't expect the mods to split either out, but hey i can wish can't I??? Or is that not allowed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irreverentad Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Everytime you read a Twitter rumour just replace the word 'Twitter' with My Uncle's Cousin's dog etc. People will post crap be it on Twitter or on here. Since Twitter arrived I have seen less ITK Posters on the forums. Personally, I enjoy reading them...and it is a rumours thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine. in that case 'My Uncle's Cousin's dog' says we have made moves to sign Barry Fuller from Gillingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I miss the ITKs on here, used to make VT fun. Twiiter is 99% bollocks but it is better than reading or watching Sky Sports News! On Brahimi deal. The original story came from a french journalist from Rennes. Probably the equivalent of Mat Kendrick here. So although all this Brahimi will be a villa player monday bollocks was rubbish the actual story seems to have legs. It looks like there was a deal being discussed.

Mazrim Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 If you remove rumour, gossip and twitter shite from this thread which after all is it's Raison d'être, what's the point of it? You can join in or opt out but demanding it not be available for others seems like fascism to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 More of an ITK debate now than a speculation thread Just to add my twoppence and for my part I will share as much information as I am able to as, when and if I come across it. In terms of the details (ie names, prices, how much is the total budget etc etc) then to be brutally honest I would only expect about half a dozen people at the club to be aware of those sorts of things anyway until some definite news on players starts to break, I would not believe anyone claiming to be ITK to be aware of all of those things anyway to be honest BEFORE some initial discussions have taken place. In terms if the more general stuff like timings etc, any due this week or next, the areas we are looking at then for me if I, or anyone else, becomes aware of that it is fine to share. The details , only at a time when the deal is almost done to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villaonsea Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Anyone think that luke chambers is worth a shot. He is a free agent after leaving notts forest. If i remember, he was being touted as a brilliant centre half a couple of years ago. would still sign ramis on top, but decent cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
