You got it, Goal.com
I seriously don't understand how people are paid to write this bile. If in one the extremely rare case that this piece of fiction is in fact true, then you heard it here first.

Why get so upset about it? It's all just a bit of fun and part of the summer transfer Merry go round. This forum and places like it would be pretty boring without silly transfer rumours. Arab world cease to exist without rubbish like this.
Anyway, at least the rumours are free. Back in my day people had to pay money to call 'Club call' from teletext to see if we really were getting David Hirst or Batistuta.
As long as you have a bit of common sense then don't let these rumours and sites bother you. I guarantee if you ran a site like this and had the opportunity to make a bit of advertising money from it you'd do the same.

Yes! I remember they always had teasers in the teletext advert: United considering bid for prolific Brazilian.
And you knew if you rang they would give you a long intro, speaking slowly, before they got to the story, which was unfounded.
Ah, the magic of those days when live information meant watching the teletext screens rotate. I remember 'watching' the Liverpool-United game where O'Shea scored the last minute winner in this medium.

Teletext was awesome. I always preferred it to Alan Green's 5Live commentary.

Indeed, bloodred, teletext had a more discreet commentary style.

My word! That's really him! Being in Halford's must mean he is buying a bicycle or an air freshener for his car, so he must be living in Manchester

I asked him why he was in Halfords, and he declined to comment.
