Dahnsouff Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Now I realise the The Times is subscription, but wouldn't you still expect to put the link to the article in this tweet?

VIKTOR-LE5 Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Sky Sports are desperate for this to go through, basta rds.
shailen Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Think United have been trying to play the let's unsettle the player early and try to get him for a lower fee as the window closes and Maguire pleads to leave. Well that hasn't worked and credit to Maguire who has remained professional throughout. £80m for Maguire is fair for both parties.

Staffs Fox Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 This is such a win-win for us, If he stays great but if we get a world record transfer fee for a defender (let me repeat, a World Record fee) and that defender being Harry Maguire who was bang average for us last season then we’ve played a blinder

Dahnsouff Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Well them there Turfites think Tarkowski is going to Leicester.

Dahnsouff Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Just now, TommyK said: What the **** is this. Boils my blood. Must admit, I am quite indifferent to Sky Sports. Utd have the most "worldwide" fans, therefore they generate the must clicks (Believe I heard they were called Page Impressions in the trade..), therefore most stories focus around those clubs. Tedious but expected.

stripeyfox Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Sky's coverage of sport is generally very good, but the rolling sports news channel struggles I think, especially in the close season like this one when all is said and done, not a lot is happening. So they just have to churn out endless streams of bollocks to fill the time when there is not actually a lot happening. But, if this transfer happens, or if it doesn't it will be still big news and as evidenced by the 340+ pages of equally endless bollocks (mostly) here people do enjoy speculating about it!

They haven’t even made a bid yet let alone one be accepted. This on top of them photoshopping him into a Utd kit and all the rest of the made up bollocks they’ve been spouting out on a daily basis just shows how biased and non creditable this bunch of cronies really are.
yorkie1999 Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 One thing that has become apparent. There was a time when Man Utd fans wouldn’t stoop to the depths of ridiculing Leicester fans, now Twitter is full of it. I reckon they really are fearful of losing out to a few clubs, like us, next season.

RowlattsFox Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Sky sports news is a 24 hour news channel and they've got **** all else to talk about. People don't have to watch it, they are basically a gossip page now and there is no need for the channel anymore. They should just have a sky sports news show once a day to show any updates.

He chatted shit, got banged. It IS relevant. I see your point but in actual fact I think differently. If you had read every post (and I do not expect anyone to wade through so much drivel in this thread) you'd have noticed I also suspected trolling on his part, and I also cited The Bear to him as a way to behave. I'm as keen as anyone to root out weird accounts (and goodness knows, I've seen some oddities lately - new accounts with strange names, for example), but I also know what it's like to be accused of being something I'm not, which has also happened on here. I took the trouble to write to thecarrickfan, and the response I got was not one of a troll - more likely a misguided youngster who'd made a series of mistakes , and don't get me wrong, I made it clear I was no fan of his 'contributions'. However, let's hypothesise that you're right, and I'm wrong, as it is entirely possible. Even if his 'succession of one-liner posts' were entirely tedious and adding nothing (and on that we agree), there is STILL no justification for people 'martyring' themselves in the cause, as if making personal attacks are some kind of heroism. Once one starts justifying that sort of thing, it's a very slippery slope.
