It is quite funny that spoof and his disciples managed to chase off the only one on that subreddit who actually did have insider information.Tweet

In fairness to him he doesn't say anything else.He obviously knows someone who either works in marketing or web design or something. Which means he'll get announcements right, but everything else he says is likely pish.
Well that of course is not true. Do you think Manchester United contact their marketing department only after they have announced a signing?He obviously knows someone who either works in marketing or web design or something.

Well they obviously don't inform the lower level employees about our summer transfer window plans and I doubt any higher up would let a muppet share that information on reddit.Well that of course is not true.

Probably somebody in the web or app departments. They have to know in advance who they're writing articles about / uploading videos etc.Well that of course is not true. Do you think Manchester United contact their marketing department only after they have announced a signing?
He got quite a few things right before - Dalot, Fred, GrantAt least we know for sure now that /u/xisimon is legit.
Yep.Simon is basically the anti-Spoofex. He rarely posts. When he does it's just about a couple of things. He's posts things that make sense and he sticks to them. When he says something will happen it happens.
Spoofex posts all the time. Pretends to know every detail, conversation and thought of everyone involved in our transfers. Comes up with narratives that make no sense and constantly change. Often says things will happen and they don't and never seems to know anything that actually happens until after others have said it will.
Didn't he say we were getting De Ligt?Simon has always been legit.

He hasn't said much so far. He wrote this 4 weeks ago:So what else has Simon said?

Summer 2019 - Update 1: Lingard on thin ice.
Sanchez hard to shift because of his wages.
Big summer upcoming. Mostly signings with potential, with a few senior heads.
Next season is a transition season.
Daniel James. Close.
Koulibaly. Making progress.
A marketing team would have to construct a marketing campaign. All of the graphics, slogans, videos of piano playing in Old Trafford etc all have to be conceived, filmed, edited and uploaded by the time of the official announcement. I would suspect the construction and completion of a campaign for a signing like Pogba or Sanchez could theoretically take a couple of weeks at least. They would obviously need to have a deadline to finish the campaign too, as it would need to be ready for signing - so someone in marketing could theoretically project a potential completion date for a deal, as they would have been given a deadline to complete their own work.Probably somebody in the web or app departments. They have to know in advance who they're writing articles about / uploading videos etc.
It was a very small window for him to post that, so he's been given a quick heads up.
Who knows. It is perfectly reasonable for ‘low level’ employees who could be working on design for a campaign to know what player it is for. It is also likely they have confidentiality agreements and are expected to shut the feck up.Well they obviously don't inform the lower level employees about our summer transfer window plans and I doubt any higher up would let a muppet share that information on reddit.
He said that De Ligt was a 'possibility' and that we were trying for him but that was all. When all the other ITKs on reddit were insisting De Ligt was a done deal or we had agreed things with the player/Ajax he said they were lying and misleading people. This resulted in him getting a ton of abuse and he quit their forum in a bit of a flounce. Although he has posted a few times on their since.Didn't he say we were getting De Ligt?
Did he not say we definitely weren’t in for him, or certainly nowhere near close to signing him, then got chased off Reddit?Didn't he say we were getting De Ligt?
I believe he just accused that Fred lad of being a liar when talking about De Ligt, insinuating either of what you said.Did he not say we definitely weren’t in for him, or certainly nowhere near close to signing him, then got chased off Reddit?
I doubt it would take weeks to make something like that piano playing video. Probably a day to shoot, and another 2-3 for editing.A marketing team would have to construct a marketing campaign.

And 0 days to decide and plan to do it in the first place?I doubt it would take weeks to make something like that piano playing video. Probably a day to shoot, and another 2-3 for editing.
