Kel is better than Everton. 

Seriously - he could literally beat them 1v11.

Tough one whether to cash in given his contract situation, but again for the fee being mentioned I question whether it’s worth selling him. It also leaves us really light up front, and we’ll probably have to spend most of his fee to replace him with someone half as good. I say keep.

 

Also he was supposed to start in the Spurs match that never happened. What we doing playing him in this new system everyone is getting used to only to sell him days later?

Why do you think we’re selling him?

I’m going mad.  Just shared a Percy tweet saying fee agreed with Everton, which disappeared, and now so did the tweet.  Still embargoed I guess.

Thanks to Elon Musk trashing verification (and his whole platform in general) you need to pay attention to the handle. 

 

Actually learn the usernames of the people you're follow. Think the proper one is @jpercytelegrah? 

[Finnegan]

As an aside, I know it's been said before, but how much of an absolute melt do you have to be to make a fake John Percy account and post make believe rumours? 

 

If they posted Onion style silly stuff with it that's obvious parody then I'd see some point. 

 

But this shit? Like... Why? How starved for attention to you need to be?

Well yeah I mean a whole bunch of people are going to think it's real. 

 

My old man is legally blind and in his 70s, he falls for this stuff all the time and texts me have I heard X, Y or Z silly rumour.

Since Musk has done away with verification and made it so that anyone can pay £8 for a blue checkmark, it's gotten needlessly harder to spot bots/fakes, but generally if you have a look at the profile picture it's pretty obvious - biggest giveaway is general the '@' handle, there will always be a spelling mistake, or it will be diff than the real handle. In this case, @jpercytelegrah vs @jpercytelegraph

 

But there are also a few useful things you can check to see if you're dealing with a fake:

This might just be the most impressive and informative post to ever exist on this forum! Well played 👏🏻

Already blocked this Eejit but Twitter folks still repost him, it’s all liars and adverts (oh and slappers) on Twitter now, now matter how many you block or mute they still appear every 3/4 posts…

One of the better Parody accounts, the satire is very close to truth.

Probably the same bellend(s) that we’re spreading the rumours Bournemouth had scored on the final day of the season. Need to find porn and stop being annoying sad little helmets

Easiest way is to check followers, if they have less than my 124 then they're a nobody.
