[MODPOST] Transfer Posts (self.reddevils)

spoofexKing Cantona[M] が 投稿 - stickied post

Hi all,

Every player under the sun will be linked with us as league seasons begin to wrap up. At this time we're asking people stick to the principle of only posting very concrete sources for transfer rumours to avoid clogging the sub up with opinion pieces and unreliable rumours.

Once the Cup final is past and the Euro's start, we'll start the rumour threads again so people can discuss their thoughts and opinions again.

Cheers all, not long to go!

Do keep in mind only rumours and news from Tiers 0, 1 and maybe 2 can be submitted individually as a link or as a text post, everything else belongs in this thread. For the ease of our members, I've included the tier and reliabilty guide below.

The reliability of the transfer rumours can be assessed using our very own reliability hierarchy for transfer news. I've included it below.

Tiers -
Tier 0 Can vary. It used to be for undisputed sources like manutd.com but it's also sort of an inside joke these days.
Tier 1 Very reliable journalists who have sources at the club
Tier 2 Good journalists who generally print realistic things.
Tier 3 Rumours or clickbait, usually average reliablity.
Tier 4 Low reliability stuff like "Ander Herrera and Mata have a fallout".
Tier 5 Banned sources like the Metro, Express and Sun.
Tier IndyKaila Utter shite.

Can I just say that bloodgate was fucking hilarious, and I hope we find another Tier -1 this transfer window.

Can the SportWitness brigade also stop getting around the above with their "it's a reliable local [whatever] paper". It's never a reliable paper. It's usually Portugal's Daily Star equivalent.

[–]spoofexKing Cantona[S] 4ポイント5ポイント  (3子コメント)

Agreed. We've added a lot of foreign papers to the reliability chart. My aim this weekend is to head through it again and add a load of Portuguese, French and German sources where I can.

At that point we might consider banning sport witness as it's an aggregator and those shouldn't be posted as links.

Sport Witness is useful though for rough translations of articles as they have people writing for them from different countries. Most people can't speak Portuguese. It might be an aggregator but I personally don't see what's bad about that, as long as we understand that they're not a source.

I disagree about banning sportwitness, they actually delve into the source of the rumour and the context around it. It's normally pretty informative and interesting if only to see a rumour is complete crap or whether it actually has some legs.

Its going to be hard to judge last summer nearly everything came from the foreign press.

Great il have an eye out for this Indy Kaila guy sounds like someone to watch

It will be interesting to see if any stories are actually accurate this transfer window. So much shit that gets reported.

Are we getting a re shuffling for some of the journalists with regards to there tier status? I feel like there should be some demotions and maybe the odd promotion.

[–]spoofexKing Cantona[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

We did that just after the last transfer window. A lot got pushed down and several pushed up.

[–]essjay2009 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Out of interest, does this also cover manager speculation, as that's likely to be the most discussed thing over the next couple of months (unless the club do something quickly)?

Alright then, I'll start:

Daily Star: We are signing Varane.

For the uninformed, I have approved your comment so they can see why it was removed in the first place.

[–]CalimariaeSolskjaer 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Big mistake. Now you'll end up having to remove Varane threads all over the place.

The thought of losing to Crystal Palace in the FA cup final is the stuff of nightmares.
