Silly season has been a bit special this summer, with the supposed transfers getting more column inches than completed ones.
I know what Bale had for breakfast, what side of the bed Fabregas sleeps on, and how much Suarez spends in the dentist..
The latest one is injuries, and even more spurious - twitter pictures changing (or not). Is that a limp or is he just happy to see me? Does the fact he's looking away in this picture mean he's off? Where's the picture??
It's got to the point where no-one believes what the hacks write.. confusion reigns. I don't even bother reading most of the rumours now, they're sure to be contradicted in an article or tweet a few hours later. 24 hour news has brought us to the point where no source is trustworthy.. even the BBC have been suckered into reporting what other news outlets "understand" to be true.
Surely there will come a time when they don't even know what's going on, they've made up so much crap they wouldn't know integrity if it smacked them in the face.
So hack journos, give us something decent to read or just pack it in and make up a cricket story. <howzat>
Bit of a rant there, got carried away

I remember when you only heard about a player signing when you checked it on Ceefax

To be honest I hope that at the end of this window:
Bale is at Spurs
Suarez is at Liverpool
Fabregas is at Barcelona
Rooney is at Utd
And then the football fan community will throw a giant at the lot of them.

Bamboozle was great fun
Very hard though? Did you used to cheat by knowing when it was gonna take you to the 'incorrect' page? Then change your option to red or another colour?

Philspurs.. can see it happening actually, would be amazing to see them backtrack.. "he's waiting for a move in January.."

Bales left Chad
The press and paricularly radio programmes like Talkshitee have practically run their entire shows for the past 3 months on total bollllox. Serves the keeeents right for making complete fools of themselves when absolutely SFA happens.
