Quote: Cruncher "I think there is a certain kind of fan who feels so honoured to be told anything by a player or a player's spokesmen that it never enters his head it may only be half the truth or even less than that, or that he might have been 'recruited' to put out a rumour in order to save the player's face.
FW's assertion is a case in point. It hinges entirely on his unquestioning belief that IL doesn't know what is going on under his nose in the club he rebuilt from top to bottom and packed with his own people, even though everyone else in the club apparently does. And FW's response when this position is queried - "IL doesn't know, that's all there is to it, you'll just have to accept it, etc" - is equally typical of that mindset; in other words, he can't face the possibility that he might have been duped.
The phrase 'don't believe everything you're told' is never more appropriate than when fans are hanging around players.'"
The problem is though when people make a statement that they feel they know what has gone on with a situation its far too easy for people to just dismiss a posters comments. Many people on these forums know each other personally but many don't know each other at all and can't possibly know anything about them, Who they are, what they do, the circles of people they know and who they mix with.
I know what I know from several different people form all sides of this situation and not just heard a rumour from a player as is assumed. I have heard what I believe to be the full story from what somebody described on here as a "Category A Source" and that information has been backed up and confirmed by various people connected directly to the situation (even people of a legal persuasion). That is why I have no intention of divulging any incriminating information. I agree slightly with Fylde Warrior that from my understanding it doesn't add up to IL knowing the facts as if he did I can't see how a certain senior member of staff could still be employed by the club.
I also know and can say quite confidently as others have that some of the parties involved have been involved in unsavoury incidents with the club before so their involvement in this instance and their avenue to the club still being present doesn't surprise me in the slightest.
