who cares who is right, as long as the boys go out there and win!

Full credit to RB for actually citing a source and not sounding like he's on the sauce like a few other do. What gives me the Brad Pitts (and I'm sure for other people as well) is with every second person claiming to have a source on this and that it gets impossible to tell the very useful info (a la Ron here) and the speculative stuff that someone heard from the bloke who does the catering at Concord Oval on Thursdays. What also is annoying is the "told you so!" mentality some have. Knowing someone who works at the club doesn't mean you are some sort of oracle who must be revered (I'm not talking about you here Ron). If your mail is good, people will see that over time. You don't need to advertise.
And if the info is wrong, or should I say doesn't turn out as suggested, it's not Ron's fault. He's just passing on some good info.

but my source is bigger than your source
@Yossarian said:
also, have you ever considered that other people here have just as good, or perhaps better sources than Ron (or others), but they just don't want to reveal their source?
Now I know SFA about the ayshford thing and like you said this thread is becoming a bit of a joke, but Ron is setting himself up when he posts "i spoke with my best pal at concord twice this week".
I mean that's the equivalent of someone else saying "I was hanging with my best-bro Benji at his house playing PS3 on Tuesday arvo and he said…"
seriously, that's just asking to have stuff thrown at you :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
and a few people are guilty of it.
but don't let that stop them! I love reading posts like that regardless of how true or far-fetched they may be
it makes this place fun
@Kul said:
Yeah I have considered that and I'm sure some people have good sources but it gets harder every week to sort out the rubbish from the good. Maybe Ron gets a bit excited but at least he's put up a name. Some people maybe know someone employed part time at the club and then as you suggest imply they were out to dinner with Tim Sheens or Robbie Farah.
Sure some people may not want to reveal there sources but the forum could become a joke the way things are going. Maybe we need Registered Informants :smiley:

This is an embarrassing thread. You're all grown men right? :laughing: You're all tools. I feel for you Kul. I couldn't help but laugh raucously as Yossarian takes aim at everyone (except good ol' Ron here) telling them how stupid they all are (not you Ron, take a back seat mate I've got this).
Hahahahaha.
Hahahahaha.

ill forever remain mute from now on.
i hope ayshford plays, but from what ive been told he wont be, that is all, like i said i hope he plays, my only concern is for the people on here wanting a punt on the boys or against them. i dont care if ive been given the bum steer on this one but from my own eyes ayshford could barely walk on wednesday, leeds told me friday morn that he wont be fit to play.
im just passing on what ive seen and been told, this is the last ill post on this topic

kul, maybe you should follow rons lead yourself. its getting a bit boring
me???
i havn't posted anything about weather or not ayshford will play. As I said before, the only thing I have heard in regards to this topic is what's been posted here by various people.
but you are probably right AHX, this thread is getting a tad tedious.
:righton:

Kul, you are pretty big on the forum, you set the examples and we will follow. but i expect better from you. I enjoy your posts by and large. keep up the great work.

Except that's not what I said was it? I was just making the point that the forum becomes a joke if everyone is pumping out their rumour of the day. I'm sure some people have great sources and I'm equally sure others talk out their backsides.
My point (and do try to actually read what I'm writing) is it's not often easier to tell the difference between the two and at least Ron cites a reference. Nothing wrong with praising some evidence based practice…
And don't put words in my mouth that I didn't say...

Oh calm down buddy I wasn't calling you a villain I was just calling you a soft touch. Ron can take the punishment as much as everyone else. But LOOK OUT I BETTER NOT put words in your mouth 🙂DWTFDOESTHISEVENMEAN) [and here comes the ironic part] or I'LL HUNT YOU DOWN AND GET YOU BOYYYYYYEEEEEE.
Ron, I appreciate that your information has been correct 9 times out of 10, and it HAS, but you certainly have no qualms letting us know how awesome you are, and for that you get a big X. :smiley:
Have a nice day.

Older than you probably. You're obviously incapable of having a discussion without resorting to insults. Seriously if you don't like what I'm saying, tell me what it is or move on.
I'm perfectly calm and willing to wait and see who plays tonight. All I was suggesting was having a 1000 unsourced "hot tips" doesn't really help matters. You disagree?
