Jeez you guys need to put your handbags down and hug it out. Quite silly.
And it never ends well insulting a mod, whether you agree with them or not.

Now guys in order to get this thread back on track, if you have an issue with me or the rules pm me.
I wonder how many bans Fridge Chutney has contributed to during this summer window
I say that if the mods are split, let's have a referendum. Let's call it the League 2 and below exit from the transfer tweets thread referendum, or Lexit for short.
What could possibly go wrong?
Will do mate.
@fridgechutney right now

Feck me you children need to grow up. It takes a second to scroll past tweets you don't care about. I don't give a shit Gueye is signing for PSG, but that tweet is fine? Well yeah it is fine., but I can scroll right past it.
Let's get a @ForestGreen transfer tweet in here to cool things down.
Interesting move, fills an important need for them.But...but...but... Fridge is allowed to post contract extensions
Sorry mate here is a transfer tweet for you

Maxime Dupé joins Clermont Foot 63 on loan from Nantes.
How is this guy Italian? Surely he's British?Dove was responding to Fridge. He/she was making a point about how Fridge was posting things people don't care about to get a reaction. Anyway, I'm starting to prefer this nonsense to our actual window and transfers.
Back on to transfer news for the Prem:

Surely nantes need a player of that calibre this season if they want to challenge...

Doesn't seem to be any interesting news about United what so ever, it's all just smoke and (the) mirror.
Hope we sign Maguire at least. Wouldn't be overly happy about this window, but content.

An Italian bloke called Patrick. Not something you see everyday!
Nah Fridge has balls of steel. Hasn’t seemed bothered by people moaning about him for the last month or so and rightly so. Really not an issue to scroll through it.
The League One and Two transfer window closes on 2nd Sept. Let's see if Fridge is still posting as often when our window is closed and nobody cares about this thread.
He's a good talent. Thought he was one of the best players in Greenwood & Garners England age group.
Literally wasting his own time and others.
How are DoubleRevv and dove not banned?
Geebs you've gone soft mate!

His scoring record is abysmal.
Zidane will not be at Madrid by Christmas.

Goal against us incoming.
I’m not going to get into an argument about it but unfortunately some people do follow football outside of the premier league. I personally don’t go much further down than the championship but each to their own.
Threads. I think there was about 3 at one point. Having threads about you only encourages attention seekers like that though.

Well I like the lower league tweets. Keep them coming
What you actually need are 2 threads.
One for official announcements (often from clubs themselves) about a signing. This would cover Fridge's type of posts and ones from the third tier of the french league in French which many can't understand.
Then you have one to discuss the twitter transfer rumours which I thought this was meant to be and what the majority of posters enjoyed.
I get you can scroll through but the two things are fundamently different in what people want this to he hence the arguments.

Yeah some people do no doubt, some people also follow the Ghana Premier League but thats not allowed for obvious reasons. This thread has been a farce all summer.
Do you ever think people just like a good moan?
Chutney's doing us all a big favour expanding our understanding of the little leagues. I see him as not just a hero, but a man of honour and conviction: a rarity in today's world.

The modmins have clarified the rules of this thread about a thousand times. It's time for people moaning about it to be threadbanned.
I for one would much rather read transfer tweets of any kind than read another whiny post from some 12 year old weird kid about how big a joke we are because we've not.been linked with any player who's moved to any club...
If people want to see only the tweets they can click on the tweets via the top menu bar. They won’t see discussion
This thread is allowed limited discussion. If there’s tweets about players united are after then there is normally a seperate thread created for discussion. Likewise if someone doesn’t like the way zidane is operating in the transfer market they can always discuss it in the football forum
We will discuss it before the next window and make it much clearer what the system is
Time for the moaners moaning about people moaning about a clear wum to be threadbanned.
I do not like reading obscure tweets as well, but just scroll them down if you don’t like it like what i do instead of moaning for goodness sake especially when you know the mods are going to do nothing about it
Sorry for the off topic-post, but I think I agree. Not sure your solution is the right one, but there do appear to be demand for some sort of change.
RedCafe is very «push-supply driven»
with quite strict rules. I’ve been a bit annoyed by this, but it has obviously worked very well, as RedCafe is among the best football forums there is. Kudos to the moderator for that. The challenge is that to attract and keep members the rule needs to be aligned with the demand of the potential users. That will always be difficult since peoples opinion and preferences differs. All the debate this summer might indicate a need for an update or change relating to the twitter transfer thread.
I dont know what would be the best solution. In an ideal world, maybe you would have to tag the league related to the tweet before posting? Then each user could tag what tweets were of interest and only these would show up in the thread. But sounds technically difficult.
The tweets only bit has become dual use too though. I used to use it to check for rumours but now its mainly official announcements especially lower league ones. You still have a need for two separate areas because what people are looking for.
Just an idea though. And I appreciate you trying to get on top of things this morning and the time you guys put in in general.

Suning, the electrical retailer who have owned the club since late 2015, are also majority shareholders in Serie A giants Inter Milan and the prospect remains that Bale could move to the 18-time Italian champions on loan.
