Kirk is an official rumour, it's been about since early in the window, but was not suggested by any lifers before media types - Therefore it never made it onto my list.
It was reported that Kirk was a player we wanted to sign last January window. Messed up by a greedy agent apparently, some people have said.
As a previous poster suggested, define an "official" rumour, @Dazzler21 ......?
I think we have to treat rumours as one of four categories.
1. Lifer's ITK Rumours - Rumours shared by lifers, that were previously unheard of with previously unheard of updates. - VFR4life's Dobson signing is the easy example 2. Unofficial Rumours - Random rumours from Teenagers & Nixon on twitter. 3. Official Rumours - Rumours announced by the media types. - Sean Clare is the most recent example. 4. Colin Rumours - Regurgitated or made up rumours, usually an hour or so after someone has already announced a rumour.
Only Cat 1 rumours make it to my spready - though I am certain some Cat 4's have.
That's a good explanation of your categories, @Dazzler21
But (just playing here) surely all rumours, by definition, are unofficial ..... ? Otherwise they'd be fact.
Wow, went from a pub chat, to a rumour, to a named player...sure he ain't signing as we speak... plays CB/LB for Villa currently, so fits the position required 21 yrs old, lets see..@Dazzler21 unofficial ?
