On what grounds, I don't tend to read his posts as there's to many wind up merchants looking for their little bit of fame...attention seeking.

He deserves it, why come out with crap that hasn't happened or never possibly will. Put up or shut up IMO.

I honestly think it's time for him to stop! He upsets too many people by posting too early about something that will never happen. To build up all this hope which ends up with nothing isn't smart at all. It will only divide the supporters on this board. If he could be more patient it would at least stop these massive roller coaster rides!

If he says he's not that's his choice. Personally i love to read his tease thread but, i won't cry over him going.

I really couldn't care less. Our expectations won't be raised to ridiculous levels by anyone if he stopped posting but then again we'd be left in the dark. Depends what kind of transfer window you prefer to have.. With Dave - drama, ridiculous expectation levels thank to him and a lot of letdowns and stress Without Dave - hardly any drama but back to the days of surprise, out of the hat type signings, open-mindedness regarding what is happening and less stress but we don't know hardly anything

I'm sick of his cryptic bullshit - Tatlock knows as much as him, and his thread is more entertaining ..... he can do one as far as I'm concerned.

I would like him to keep posting but instead of like this window start at the beginning of December but start only when we are going to make our first signing. Other than that if any out going signing are going to happen which will effect the first eleven then that all i want. He does make the window go abit quicker and as this is an open board it gets us all arguing.

It's what happens when you feed people infomation on transfers that are nowhere near complete.

Good.
He got everyone's hopes up
Were deffo going smash our transfer record maybe even twice. 2 exciting loan players will sign and all his other 100s of posts hes made, he gets peoples hopes up, and this is what happens dummies are left every where on the floor.

I reckon he would be missed. Three threads at the top of this board are dedicated to him. One he started which is over 900 pages long. One speculating on who he is and now this one, he seems to be entertaining the vast majority. Isn't this what the transfer window is all about rumour, speculation, disappointment and sometimes a bit of surprise and jubilation. It's the time when we all play Football Manager for real.

If he's genuinely itk then why would we want potential signings plastered all over the net, alerting other clubs and influencing things generally. If it's bollocks then I suppose it's harmless fun but raises the expectations of the gullible. If it's a well orchestrated smoke screen by insiders at the club to disguise our intentions, eg hinting that we're looking at players like Owen and Scholes to stop rival bidders from nipping in and snatching our real targets (like Collins) from under our noses, then I suppose it's working brilliantly

If you assume everything that dave says will 100% happen then you're a complete fucking cock, and deserve to feel disappointed when it doesn't.
He can only tell you what the club are trying to do. He can't control what happens around the negotiating table can he?
Personally I don't invest much time and energy in the thread like some do, but I'm still interested to hear the kind of players that we're after, so would rather dave posted than didn't.

Make that 4 threads thanks to some genius. If you take it all with a pinch of salt and take the attitude that you won't believe it until he is standing in front of the Boothen with a scarf... etc etc etc. It's just a bit of fun. Those who take his words as gospel are setting themselves up for disappointment not the other way around.

He hasn't convinced me that he is ITK, but I think the forum is a better place with his contributions to it.

I'd like to not get sucked in, but I can't help but read it if he posts. If he doesn't, I'll probably make better use of my time. In the end, we'll still get the players we're going to get... (and how depressing that is this time around...)

If you're daft enough to think it's all going to come true then that's your problem. absolutely. but he should drop the "my first is in apple ....." irritating cryptic bollocks and just post what he thinks he knows.

I have followed Dave both in the summer window and this window, but I really can't remeber one signing he has mentioned that has actually happened!!! Can someone please enlighten me? Is this actually the truth? ???
