Heard but won’t go into detail. May be a rumour but not sure.
Why even mention it if you don’t want to go into details? |

I realise it's frustrating but I can see there are times when it's best not to go into details. It could lead back to someone or in some circumstances jeopardise a potential deal. Personally I'd rather hear something might be happening without details, than hear nothing at all.

Because without the detail then anything that does happen can be met with the smug ‘told you so’ ‘I knew it’ so on and so forth. |

Not quite the same as transfer rumours though is it, like pre-season when it's clear we need to sign about a dozen players and you can follow clues in the press. Could just be a punt on someone having been waiting for the planning consent though, so you could be right.

tbf the Duke isn't an ITK Chang-alike, he has a good track record of actually knowing what's going on. If he can't say any more it will be for a very good reason |

No, he isn’t but if he can’t say anything concrete (and I can fully understand why he can’t) then why say anything at all. It amounts to nothing more than a playground style ‘I know something you don’t know’ |

I know the guy and if he's dropping hints take note as he's definitely in the know and a very reliable scourge of information |
