Maybe you simply shouldn't worry about what ratings, good, bad or otherwise, are assigned your posts, and simply post just because we are so wonderful people to interact with. (y)

I don't care at all about the ratings bud, just the fact people can't differentiate between opinion and ITK.

I genuinely think those with a modicum of intelligence can especially when you state it clearly as you do. It would be sad if you felt you couldn't continue to be both a fan who comments and one who at certain times shares info.

And that is nice if so. Problem is though as A&C says too many people lately are failing to understand the difference between the two, and that is causing problems Even more so when it's made clear in black and white what is opinion and what is ITK.

Perhaps it's simply the case that I can't post on here as a fan as well as posting the stuff I hear, and perhaps that is why I'm probably the last person that does still do both. :(
If you prefer just being a fan & posting on here then maybe you're itk stuff could go through the Goat, but given your status as in-house ITK the stoopid one's in here will still misinterpret everything you post during the TW. Shame it's getting you down though coz I appreciate your postings on this site

I get your point. I have heard you. And I agree. But most SC users really just actually desire to take the opportunity to thank you for your participation, and I don't see anything wrong with that. There is always somebody who will read too too much into what the ITKs are posting, but that's their fault/responsibility, not yours. We all should be able to make balanced verdict on what's useful as discussion points, and what's useful as inside information. That's up to each and every poster to make that rational judgement. You ITKs can't bear the full responsibility for whether or not we read too much into a post. What I would say is, keep posting, keep participating, keep tagging along, and assume that most users will be able to make a rational call on the nature of each post.

Trix appreciate all your posts, both ITK and intelligent football fan musings. Don't let stupid people worry you.

With our club a step or so away from winning things, then how come its Aug 10th and we have signed no-one. We have been here before with 'arry. Three weeks to go and expecting to sign 3 or 4 guys! I just can't believe it or the bullshit coming out of the club.

I believe a few who got fed up with everyone falling over every word they write ended up using the goat only as their itk outlet. Its an option if you want to use the rest of the site like a normo (I.e the rest of us!)

That ITK should be pinned to the top in its own thread just so everyone on here can see how much they look like fools for bashing it when, completely unsurprisingly, it was spot on.

TBF, all other ITK's disagreed with it at the time. That info given also said that barkley was done for 20m, IF we don't sign barkley or sign him for 25-30m what would you say then? Because I would be less inclined to believe the rest of it.

I always take everything with a bucket of salt but A&C (and a lot of others) have been quick to rub that piece of info in since the Rose story broke, would they be as quick to back track if barkley is signed for more that stated?

Your understanding regarding the nature ITK isn't up to much at all is it? :D

Effectively suggesting that unless all of it is spot on none of it carries any weight.

And yes, i've mentioned it once or twice (and so have quite a few others), not because of some perverse "I told you so" agenda, but because of the ridicule and vitriol it attracted, not to mention in light of recent events, its worth mentioning.

The reason people ridiculed it was because every other itk didn't agree, and honestly the only person (in my view) that would know how poch feels would be poch or his wife, so unless it's one of them I still say it reads as an outsider looking in. I'm not saying that all info has to be spot on, but an ITK reputation is built by getting information correct, if we don't get barkley for 20m then the rest has to be questioned

Pretty much my view. I've been around too long & lost count of the number of times we've had a half decent team to build on, only for the Board decisions to mess it up & set us back to square one & it seems to be happening again.

On the transfer side of things....a young blonde at work, who usually wears outfits that appear to be painted onto her body, has recently transferred from French panties to either a tiny thong or commando. Confirmation of the exact transfer details is still underway
