Over the years we've had a lot of persons coming in here and their first post is in the style of:
"My mate who knows a person that work in Everton told me that (insert name of player here) will sign for us within a few days. He hasn't been wrong yet" And, of course, he had it wrong. And we haven't heard from that poster again.
So based on that many regular posters here are very sceptic when a person come here and says those things, since 99.5% of the time it's just lies, speculation or just taken from newpapers and putten a personal twist on it.
We have had posters here that have been right and gotten a couple of tidbits out before the papers did, and that later have been proven correctly. But it takes time to build a reputation, and there aren't many here I would believe in if they came out and said these things.
It's nothing personal, if I would post something like that I'm 100% certain that almost all here wouldn't believe me either.
