Fez of Mahrez Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 We've had a couple of Hibs fans on here saying we're signing Steven Fletcher. Just thought I'd do my public duty and inform everyone it's part of some I'm A Celebrity spoof they've got on their forums and they've got to create a rumour out of nothing and wind up another clubs fans. Good effort I must say. HibeesBounce.com CONTESTANTS - here is your first task, to be completed by midnight on Wednesday. Start a 'wind-up' thread on another football fans' website and post a report on how it went, preferably with links, on this thread. --- I was guilty of supporting a wind-up elsewhere the night by backing up ZH's daft plan for a swap deal for Fletch with Leicester city. All I'd say is beware of winding up fellow Hibees in pursuit of your aims, might bite back on your votes after all ---

Let's do it to someone else - preferably that Swansea lot who keep coming on here asking about Fryatt.
Bryn Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 That's quite clever.... was just TOO far fetched though, don't think it really got any of us.
Babylon Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 That's quite clever.... was just TOO far fetched though, don't think it really got any of us. I'd never even heard of him!!! As soon as I search for his name and read figures of £4m I put it down to complete horse cack.
DB11 Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 I'd never even heard of him!!! As soon as I search for his name and read figures of £4m I put it down to complete horse cack. Me neither

A certain pharse springs to mind, but I wont say it as I wouldn't wish to insult any door knobs that might be reading.
Fox You Forest Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Someone start a Leeds matchday thread on there forum.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 I must admit, a part of me really, really wanted to believe this.

dandannieldanok Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 I must admit, a part of me really, really wanted to believe this. Same here, Fletcher is a quality player and would score plenty of goals in this league.

Dan Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Same here, Fletcher is a quality player and would score plenty of goals in this league. yes, and Real Madrid also think he would get goals for them in La Liga, i've heard they're linked as well.
Head Honcho Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 Same here, Fletcher is a quality player and would score plenty of goals in this league. I agree he would but that doesn't mean he's quality! He's an above average to good striker at best just now in the SPL so don't let the paper talk cloud your judgement. The only people bigging him up just now are Hibs and his agent looking for the big money move.
beemeroo Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 yes, and Real Madrid also think he would get goals for them in La Liga, i've heard they're linked as well. This is one move I absolutely refuse to believe. The sheer amount of better options that exist out there is simply staggering. This is meaning absolutely no offense to the guy but this is just a non starter as far as rumours go.

It started because a few RM scouts were watching a match he was playing in, which is not to say that they were there to watch him!
beemeroo Posted 23 December 2008 Posted 23 December 2008 It started because a few RM scouts were watching a match he was playing in, which is not to say that they were there to watch him! As far as I'm aware scouts get around everywhere though. I'm not saying they couldn't have watched him but I would be hugely surprised if this was their replacement for Raul When you have the spending power to wave 75mil under Alex Fergusons nose what is there about Stephen Fletcher that would tempt you? I can understand Mark Hughes looking at him because he seems to have adopted an 'I don't care if I have unlimited funds - I still want to be a wheeler-dealer' attitude. Odd.
