I must admit I hadn't seen that before.
It looks like Hackett was right all along.

It is old to be fair, they've just re-printed it from somewhere else.

Old as in the window shut yesterday, we still have a transfer in the balance, Pulis has given a quote post transfer window which has been stolen and re-printed on a website for tomorrow.
Can you indicate when news actually becomes old?
PS -It as also the first i'd read of any denial or i wouldn't of posted it.
Plus - It was meant as a bit of a piss take at first but obviously some people are getting a bit over tired now.

pisser of a thred, got my name in the title and everything. I'm not covering my back here but... I'm a bit premature at posting this, but just recieved a text of a mate, whos been at the ground just and he said that a midfielder who we've been linked with is at the ground now (I know who the midfielder is) but I don't wnat say anything defo, cus' it coulf be confusion on his part. I've been confident of his signature all window, and if my mate is talking sense....Has no reason what so ever to send me a duff text, I'll be saying a great big I told you so, to one poster in particular. Now the deal might not go through, or my mate (unlikley as it is) might have saw a delivery guy who looked like this player and got confused, I don't know...But I'm very excited and will be joining him down the ground in the enxt hour or so I didnt say hew as defo down the ground, and I a couple of times have said that he could have got confused with some else. That might well ahve been the case, he mistook Ledley for some random bloke...which I stated in my first post. He still now 'swears it was him' but theres no reason for Stoke to lie. 3 different people told me throught the window thta we were after Leldey, and it wasn't just me saying it... I was told late last night that Cardiff did pull the plug on the deal, and wouldnt let anything go any further than it had done already! I don't know what else to say!

Aaahh, how nice of Merciful to make a special thread!
Whats your point by the way?
We all know ledley hasn't signed so why make such a big deal, are you Mr Hackett?

Glad you see the funny side A-teen, it was just a piss take and your name seemed most appropriate as you were posting most of the 'updates'. I was bored and thought it was time i got over the 100 posts mark. No slur on your insider knowledge was intended but you did have a large number baying on your every post so you do deserve a bit of stick.

He shouldn't post next time if he hears anything should he really, you're right merciful! A teen i never want to see your name on here again and fuller was right to wait to get his stitches

Good guess if you ask me To tell you the truth I've always thought that Hackett does nothing but recycle info as his own and makes a lot of guesses, however on this occasion he has been absolutely adamant we weren't in for him since before the window even opened. Early in the month when the tide was against him from Homzy, Monkeycat and A Teen, he totally stuck to his guns. Two or three weeks back he said 'I like Monkeycat but he is going to fall on his sword on this one' and when Homzy challenged him to demonstrate how he knew as fact that we were no longer after Ledley, he said 'Pulis has told agents that he isn't interested in players without top flight experience'. Which to be fair could be what Pulis is alluding to in his quotes above. It does seem that Hackett was better informed than some people give him credit for, at least on this one especially.

Personally I think its been unfair on A Teen, you're not the first to single him out for 'special attention' with regards to what he's posted. You say no point or no malice so why point out his name in the title and then link to something that is not actually directed him - If you ask me there is no point in that!

No idea...honestly. One of the guys I was getting Leldley information from early in the window, I ahvent spoke to in about 2 weeks now. So I'm just relying on other people hearing things etc

I wish someone knew... It's doing my nut in now.. I think Stoke should just come out and say whether he has signed or not now.. It's getting boring.. Personally don't think he has... Anyways I thank you A-teen for ll your information.. Tis what the transfer window is all about I love it all.. Whether the deals happen or not... The anticipation is geat ;D

I can change it to your name if you prefer, pottering?
I had the idea when i saw the headline and looked back a page or 2 for a name (any name) and his came up first, no idea he's had stick, personally don't care, a message board is for rumours and discussion so i applaud that he posted what he heard but this defensive shit is way over the top.

Post by PotteringThrough on Feb 4, 2009 0:26:35 GMT
Explain to me why it is? No Point, no malice you said so why are you so concerned when someone sticks up for him? I made a joke when you quoted me, I was being sarcastic about him not posting again and for some reason you made a big deal about that - Do you not feel that was over the top? No you probably don't, infact there was absolutely no point in asking that question. Keep the title fella, its your thread after all

No worries manc I'm exactly the same, As much as I'm wanting it to happen. I was told no more signings but then this got pulled out of the bag...the longer it goes on, the less confident I get of him signing I'm not an all knowing, this is deffo happening twat. And if thats the way I come across then I apologies too. I have plenty of people who can vouch for me on here. I'm not that way at all

One thing we should all learn from this. I accept much of this stuff is posted in good faith. Those posting who have been proved wrong need to have a long hard look at their sources (sauces) cos some of them are not reliable. The much maligned Mr.Hackett was the one person saying Ledley would not happen!! Others, totally wrongly were telling us it was a "done deal". Some posters described as "in the know" have lost a lot of credibility

Post by Merciful on Feb 4, 2009 0:38:04 GMT
Because there's nothing to stick up for with me, like i said, i was more than happy that he posted what he'd heard, more the merrier for me from anyone, truth or not, it's what makes the board a laugh for me.
Some people obviously take it more seriously than me.
A-teen's was a random name, could of been any from 10, again thought people would just see the funny side not get touchy.
If A-teen wants me to remove his name he only has to say.
Ps - pottering, i never quoted you, that was your man.

Good point on the quote ;D
Also why would you change it too my name, would my name be one of the ten mentioned before - or am i no. 11?
|

Post by Merciful on Feb 4, 2009 0:48:43 GMT
You weren't in the first 10 i don't think, maybe 11.
Anyway, all done now.
Better?

Not really, means nothing to me ;D
However i would like a PM as to who the mystery oatcake poster is!
I think i was 11th because of my Robinho thread. I was right about him and the rape charges but i also said that Santa Cruz ould sign for man city - I'd be surprised if that was the case though.

Ahh, can't reveal that just yet as my sources at Oatie HQ could/would be in a lot of trouble if it came out just yet but trust me on this one, it could rock the city.
