Saint Fan CaM Posted 11 May, 2009 Share Posted 11 May, 2009 OK - there's a few battles being waged against ITK types on here, so I thought it would be a good idea to come up with a key that ITK's could use without revealing any sensitive info as follows. The ITK-er can just use the relevant keys to indicate what they know by making a code...(example code - starting with source... A:C:B:A:B:E). The rules are simple - use the code or do not post an ITK statement atall. Nobody is allowed to question a code - its there for info only. Failure to observe the rules means ban from the forum until such time Fry makes an announcement or SFC is no-more (gulp). A new takeover thread could be started to under here as a sticky for all new ITK rumours. SOURCE A = From the horses mouth B = From someone the horse knows C = From someone not connected, but highly trusted to know D = From a complete no-mark who is probably guessing AVAILABLE WEDGE A = Obscenely wealthy (>£1b) B = Healthy wealthy (>£500m) C = OK wealthy (>£100m) D = Piddling wealthy (£30-£100m) E = Wilde wealthy (oh dear) PLANS A = Prem in 4 years B = Prem in 5 years C = Prem in 6 years D = CCC in 5 years E = L1 for forseeable BIDDER NAME A = Household name to all B = Household name to few C = Person known within football world D = Person known to few E = Complete unknown or left-field LIKELY FAN APPRECIATION A = Will be ecstatic about this bidder B = Will probably love this bidder C = Will be happy but ambivilent D = Will be happy SFC is saved, but not overjoyed E = This is going to be worse than Lowe and Wilde combined TIMESCALE FOR REVEALING ALL A = Next 12 hours B = Next 24 hours C = This week sometime D = Any given Friday E = I do not have a clue - Fry is the man with the plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Charlie Posted 11 May, 2009 Share Posted 11 May, 2009 How about a scoring system for ITK's so they can actually be judged on accuracy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB Fry Posted 11 May, 2009 Share Posted 11 May, 2009 I think the quality of the rumour should be judged on fruit. And the quality/wealth of the bidder should be judged on the animal kingdom. So Paul Allen would be a Fig Wilderbeest. Matt Le Tissier would be a Watermelon Lemur. Dave Merrington would be the dreaded Double Kiwi. No hope and no money either.

Mole Posted 11 May, 2009 Share Posted 11 May, 2009 I'm all for a league table. Perhaps the mods could make a sticky and as and when the ITK's make a declaration they record it so all the ITK predictions are on one thread. If they're right they get 3 points, if they almost right 1 point, if theyre wrong they get deducted 10 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 11 May, 2009 Share Posted 11 May, 2009 if theyre wrong they get deducted 10 points. Is there an appeal process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draino76 Posted 11 May, 2009 Share Posted 11 May, 2009 I just keep getting,B,A,D,B,A,D B,A,D,B,A,D using the key above would be something like what QPR have got by my reckoning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponty Posted 11 May, 2009 Share Posted 11 May, 2009 B,A,D,B,A,D using the key above would be something like what QPR have got by my reckoning. I'd take what QPR have got. Say what you like about Flav, he's an honorable guy who wears his heart on his sleeve and who also happens to have the money to back up his mouth. Something we've never had at SMS.

SaintBobby Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 Great coding system :-) No reason why any suppsoed ITK can't use it! Top job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowballs2 Posted 12 May, 2009 Share Posted 12 May, 2009 Lets ban all ITKers , all they do is publish inacurate crap that demotivates many fans. Work on the basis of when its done its over, we can't influence any bidder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
