Clickbait

Would be a fantastic signing.

Proper statement signing that 64, hopefully we are speaking to him behind the scenes, he's now back in the England fold so a comeback to the PL will be on the cards I reckon, just hope it's with us.

I suspect Conor McGilligan is behind much of this lot.

Almost all of the current rumour content, appearing every day, can reasonably described as clickbait and is exasperating.

The content of the youtubers (eg Just Joe and Conor) is currently unwatchable, when compared to their very decent group discussions during the season when there was actually something to talk about.

I hope it gets better very soon. My memory of the last few transfer windows is that that a very small number of tweeters were posting reliable information about deals that were nearly done and deals that are done. (Some of you will probably know who these guys are). I hope they are talking to us soon because the current results in a Leeds United search might as well be AI generated.

Indeed, Wes, their group discussions were constructive & enjoyable. Now I can't bear to watch the rubbish they are churning out.

Get a bet on !!

I enjoy a good transfer rumour.
Makes you think.
Keeps us all “engaged” in the off-season.

We all know it comes with a major health warning.

Lots of sports that don’t have a transfer market go very quiet when the games stop.

Ivan Toney - bring it on

A coup for him, I suspect.

I posted Ramazani's name here based on click bait... a couple of days before he signed out of the blue. Something about the way it was written made me look for other connections and turned out to be correct

I'm happy to post names of players I'd like to see arrive, top of this list is Noah Fernandez and Samu Aghehowa currently but there's no link with the club just wishful thinking

I suppose during the period until the transfer season opens there will be lot of clickbait articles. I suppose it peeks your interest when there is no real football to talk about.

It would be fun to collate the most outrageous headlines and see how many of them come to fruition... not many I suspect

So if you are astounded be any claim that you think is bogus, post it here.

It's sorting wheat from chaff and there's a lot more of the latter .... but there is wheat

Best one at the moment sees us signing Thomas Muller. It even has Marcelo back as manager!

Would take him in a heartbeat MC.

What a great bloke Stuart is!

Great ambassador for the club 64’ and is well liked & respected by everyone. Seems to have found his niche after that horrendous injury.

Whilst from my perspective it is welcome to see the vast majority of voters on this site ignore click bait, there are many whose expectations live and breath every scrap of news. This feeds unreasonable expectation, and there are a few posters on this site IMO with just that.

This transfer window will be difficult, attracting high level players to a club, who on paper are one of the favourites to be relegated is a very hard sell, particularly if there is no easy contractual release clauses. Which is a contractual issue the club have stated previously they will not offer. We shall see….

I am a facts only person, speculation and flights of fancy hold no interest for me. However, I accept that everyone is different and some will vent their frustration at any developments that do not meet their expectations.

There is no shortage of content creators and posters on social media who target the moth to a flame fan base.

A coup for him, I suspect.

Connor is one of those content creators who feast on certain elements of the fan base. He is a clever manipulator, he has to be in truth as he makes a living from it.

Just Joe football show and Connor were once together on All Leeds TV, but then they branched out on their own when they realised there was some dosh in it for them.

I wouldn't be surprised if Stuart goes into coaching one day.
