I just wish Mum and Dad would stop fighting about who was right and who was wrong. Let’s get back to being one big happy family and hating that dinosaur.. Or has 7 from 9 points meant some now go back to bashing Cowley?
Who cares if he’s right or wrong. A clock is right twice a day and Mystic Meg predicts the person who holds the winning lottery ticket made the effort to buy a ticket. Rumours are rumours until they are proven right. Although, I wonder if we would jazz it all up with some gamification..
Share your rumour and you get 1 point if it’s right. Get something wrong, get deducted 3 points. No points if it appears in a local rag to National publication before you submit the rumour.
Sound fair? Any other rules to add?

Plus, you know how many people within the club get told about team selections, disciplinary issues and take over saga’s anyway?
I mean who is likely to be privy to all that information?

He also got the 3 in trouble wrong too.
You need to have words with your sources Cowley, because they are feeding you garbage. *awaits toys out of pram*
Was I wrong with the 3? |

I can take rumours it's the "ohhh I know something you don't know" that bothers me. Especially when it's wrong 99% of the time. You can be fine with it, it has just always got to me.

Only thing on par with the ‘I know something you don’t know’ is the ‘I knew that was going to happen’ after the event, with no previous mentioned of it what so ever. Like that time I posted about a heinous act of disrespect a player did at the Christmas party and another poster reiterated that he’d also heard about said (completely fictional) incident. |

Doesn’t bother me in the least. I know someone who has a lad in the youth team and he told me snippets - some were right, most were not. Nature of the beast.
Keep ‘em coming!

Fucking hell ladies, you either want rumours or you don't want rumours, make your minds up. I didn't realise that there was a set of rules akin to the Brexit deal as to what constitutes a rumour and what doesn't.
Of course there are rumours of shit going on, the mistake Cowley has made is dipping his toe in and getting it chomped off. Like Twitter, these days on here you have to either go all in, or stay quiet, the majority stay quiet and don't even intimate anything is going on because it's not worth it. The ones that get bitten are those that dip the toe or talk in riddles and emojis but don't give all info.
Those that stay quiet have learnt their lesson, but as far as rumours go everyone should stick to Tansmedia

There's a difference between rumours and presenting false information as facts but I suppose we are in the fake news era so whatever floats your boat. If I see obvious bullshit I will point it out and if that's an issue then there is an ignore button to the left. Writing utter garbage as if it was true is facebook group level shit IMO. **note - unless you're Tans in which case it's just generally accepted without question  |
