Anti Reddit ITKs v2 | Conveniently Receiving The Day Before

[adam118]

These ITK's were first to find out about Brooks so they say and heard about it yesterday! They just took 24 hours to get the news out via Reddit and unfortunately were beaten to it I bet these ITK's give out fake interviews to themselves in the mirror too.

 

[tenpoless]

They don’t mean the same thing.

Using basic probability as an example, say there are 5 options. Option Grealish has 1/5 chance and option VDB has 1/5 chance. The probability then of either Grealish or VDB happening is 2/5, not 1/5.

I mean, their numbers are just pulled out of their ass on no basis. But still, they aren’t the same thing.

Thanks

 

[BenitoSTARR]

Absolute joke now.

G5 has lost his source (probably Heinz Ketchup)

Miraculously the day after reports of interest in David Brooks ITK1 and ITK3 now are talking about him but don’t worry lads they knew about the price and him not being a Sancho alternative so it still counts.

They will be dead and buried as a sub soon because they won’t listen to what the community wants. They don’t want pretend legitimacy they want a full on fantasy novel and that’s fine if it’s what they want give it to them.

When you consider that G5 & ITK4 were meant to be more reliable and now one of them has been fired and the other has disappeared off the face of the earth it doesn't look good for the future of ITK's at all

They’ve been “fired”.

Croadymeister my friend please tell me you don’t believe this. I’m genuinely worried for you mate.

They realised they’re failing at what they wanted to do. Too many people have cottoned onto it being BS but they’ve made a bit of money out of naive young men and realise they’ve put too much into Sancho arriving.

Nah certainly not buying into it after all this Sancho saga, so are you still confident that my favourite transfer target is still leaving Villa by the end of this window or are you starting to waiver a little bit now

 

[The Man Himself]

Also the ITK that said there was a brief the past weekend has “lost his source”

Lost his source? Was it Gomes?

Oh no, they definitely received the information about it before it was published by newspapers, they've got proof....they'll just post it later. prepare for the wrath of the ban if you ask for proof of this though, for unrelated reasons.

it's exceeding comical levels at this point. surely they know they're putting themselves out for ridicule by reprinting stories not even a full 24 hours after someone else already says them

That G5 was probably led a merry dance after his apparent 'source' found out about that reddit page. He was probably told false info that only his 'source' knew and soon as they saw it on there, they stopped giving him info.

They know they have made a right mess with their "Exclusives" recently so I think they are playing safe. They tend to wait to a deal is being reported as close and then strike with story that the deal is done hoping it actually gets done in that timeframe and look like heroes.

As I said that fateful evening I have no reason to believe he won’t leave and barring a monumental change of heart or a ludicrous contract offer from Villa I do not see him there at the end of the window.

If it ends up being wrong then I’ll be having words with that special someone

Cheers mate,certainly wouldn't rule out them making a ludicrous contract offer though seeing as he is their main man

 

[Sparky Rhiwabon]

Still waiting for my ITK whisper of Maddison to United, from two months ago! Starting to think I’ve been given a bum steer! Smokescreen?

 

[Rozay]

Took it upon myself to lay into these morons on Twitter. They have replied claiming they get 90% of info correct. Fecking morons.

 

[LawCharltonBest]

They meant 90% of their spelling. Which is good for them

 

[Rozay]

They said I need to be ‘prepared for some slagging off when all this is done’. Fecking cretins.

Oh god not the slagging anything but the slagging!

Jokers on there. If Sancho ends up signing they’ll probably combust into roars of “OMFG ITK 4 called this one #prophet” or some other horseshite.

[ubergorp]

I knew Muppet Tiers was meant to be a joke when they put 70% confidence on one of Grealish or vdB signing for United but 50% confidence on Grealish signing for United and 50% confidence on vdB signing for United.

Both mean the same thing and had different percentages. 70% and 50%. Ubergorp, just what kind of people did you employ to maintain the website?

Let's do some maths shall we?

p(G) = probability of Grealish joining = 50%
p(D) = probability of Donny joining = 50%

p(G and D) = probability of BOTH joining = p(G) * p(D) = 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25 or 25%
p(G or D) = probability of EITHER joining = p(G) + p(D) - p(G and D) = 0.5 + 0.5 - 0.25 = 0.75 or 75%

We don't employ anyone to maintain the website, we do it ourselves, and evidently we're actually familiar with how basic mathematics works unlike yourself.

[Joseunited]

Just do one you bellend. Don’t be coming on here lecturing anyone. You’re an embarrassment with your silly wee scam.

Probability of anyone on Reddit being ITK = 0%.

Probability of ITK's on reddit to be bellends = 100%.

 

[Igor Drefljak]

Probability of anyone on Reddit being ITK = 0%.

That statement right there, is 100% more accurate than anything Uber and his agents all over Europe have gotten so far.

I'm surprised none have come out and said. I can 100% confidently say we won't be signing Salah. At least it gives them something to be right about

Still wrong then? you put it as 70%. And also it wasn't even about probability since we all knew you plucked the numbers out of your arse.

You maintained the website yourselves? no wonder why it's a shit website, it still has a menu about Wan Bissaka. Did you not know how to take off an item from your navbar? I might have forgotten about statistics since I am not actively using it in my daily life. But I can build a better website in one night than you in 2 years.

Feck off you imaginary number crunching, Reddit posting, lecturing prick. Ubergorbage.

Call it lecturing if you will, all I’m saying is that in an ‘inclusive or’ scenario, two 50%’s do not equal 50%.

The irony of you lot having a go at me for spreading misinformation whilst simultaneously having a go at me for correcting basic maths

That’s incredibly uncalled for. All I did was point out that the person who called us out for not understanding mathematics does not understand mathematics themselves. Why be so mean?

 

[nainaisson]

p(G) = probability of Grealish joining = 50%
p(D) = probability of Donny joining = 50%

These are multi-million pound transfers, not coin tosses.

 

[BenitoSTARR]

This is quite ironic because simplifying something like a transfer to a 50/50 scenario is so unmathematically sound it was very amusing watching you justify it.

 

[ubergorp]

The transfer confidence rating is a personal confidence. It’s not pretending to be the result of a complex algorithm, so stop pretending it is.

All I’m saying is if you’re going to criticise us for being bad at maths, you better damn make sure your own maths are sound.

“look at this idiot, he thinks that 1+1=2 when it’s obviously 3, hahaha let’s all laugh at the moron who can’t maths good”

Also it’s rather crass to call me names for stepping in and correcting the aforementioned mathematical mistake

So perhaps stop pretending that it’s mathematically sound by teasing other members?

Personal confidence = made up

I completely agree the name calling isn’t needed at all.

Almost as bad as lying en masse and getting money in for said lies. Almost.

 

[Adam-Utd]

@ubergorp

Now that G5 is out of action and his source has been fired, can you state who/what role the source played inside the club? Obviously you don't need to be too specific to get somebody into trouble.

 

[Wibble]

Let's do some maths shall we?

p(G) = probability of Grealish joining = 50%
p(D) = probability of Donny joining = 50%

p(G and D) = probability of BOTH joining = p(G) * p(D) = 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25 or 25%
p(G or D) = probability of EITHER joining = p(G) + p(D) - p(G and D) = 0.5 + 0.5 - 0.25 = 0.75 or 75%

Except the a) you have plucked the .5 probability out of thin air and b) the probability of either of those signings depends to some degree or another on in we sign Sancho, and are thus meaningless.

The irony of you thinking these two things are the same is unsurprising.

You’re in no position to be coming in here and chucking insults like this around:

Forget all the crappy maths, the fact that it says 50% is pretty much saying "He may sign, he may also not sign"! Well done Sherlock

 

[acrebo]

I’d like to know what the likelihood is of us signing one of the following:

Sancho
Koulibali
Grealish
Kane
Magalhaes
Donny
Messi
Upamecano

I mean, even with a very low confidence for each, the percentages add up to an almost-certainty...

 

[Tiber]

I resent the idea that the fools who buy into that Reddit/twitter IDK guff are muppets.

 

[BenitoSTARR]

I’d like to know what the likelihood is of us signing one of the following:

Sancho 50%
Koulibali 25%
Grealish 30%
Kane 10%
Magalhaes 10%
Donny 30%
Messi 5%
Upamecano 30%

I mean, even with a very low confidence for each, the percentages add up to an almost-certainty...

I spoke to my insider and added in the probabilities suggested.

ITK 7 told me that we’ll 100% be signing someone but we can’t disclose who yet because we don’t want another person losing their job

 

[Irrational.]

That subreddit has gone awfully quiet - no new 'mupdates' (vomit) for the past few days.

With them being so bullish over the Sancho transfer and spouting generic nonsense that anyone with access to a UK newspaper could spew, they've lost even the tiniest semblance of credibility that they may well once have had.

Their USP is “ITK” info which they’ve been completely unable to offer.

Honestly they offer no actual content.

Sorry I just keep coming back to this. It’s so good. I want it on my tombstone. “Ubergorbage” is brilliant, how do you come up with this stuff?

I never pretended it was mathematically sound, the other member did. I was simply using the framing they provided.

Yeah that is bad, I agree. It's why I don't like papers like the Daily Mail, and it's why we don't lie ourselves.

So the info about a briefing on Monday wasn’t a lie?

The Sancho date being confirmed for his signing wasn’t a lie?

There have been numerous lies in the past month and if we go back further more of the “information” has been false than correct.

The last time something like this was attempted it broke down due to people being lied to. And so far this season can you actually point out one thing your “ITKs” got absolutely spot on correct that wasn’t just reported in the papers that same day?
