All journos will nurture a few sources within clubs. Mostly a mutual relationship. Never any money changing hands.

It you’re right though - these days it’s guess work. Stopped clock and all that

Playing in Leicester’s pre season friendly tonight...

Guess he hasn’t signed for us then

Possibly a farewell to the fans - RvP did similar IIRC?

Clearly had his head turned.


Which is no mean feat.

Can just see them walking into the editor’s office.

“Hey boss, radio el Bullshit say they have a great transfer tip they can share if we can bung them a couple of grand”

“P45 over there mate”

If anything, it’s the other way around. Clubs and agents taking journos out for lunch and giving them freebies to get their PR angles out there.

£#%&!ing clueless.

Why I said it depends on what you mean by tip is to avoid the shite you’ve just posted. It’s probably more like a couple of hundred rather than a couple of grand, for a well sourced bit of info that checks out and is of interest.

He’s £#%&!ing loopy.

I’m imagining a scene from Dickinson’s Real Deal played out in a smoky backstreet boozer.

“Right, you’ve got a bit of info on Harry Maguire’s next move. I’m now going to lay out 7 crisp £20 notes on the table, and you have a little think if that’s close to the figure you had in your head.

No? £180 final offer, take it or leave it”

“You’ve got until midnight. Then the presses start to roll.”

Mate this isn't Chicago PD, giving local crackheads a few bucks for the word on the street.

You're suggesting Henry Winter Paypals the Leicester pure a few hundred for insider gossip? Stand down on this one imo.
