thelaticsfan Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Is everybody in the know here apart from me, with all the rumours going around at transfer time it seems everyone knows someone involved in every proffessional club, IE when we are linked with someone from southport someone on here will say about their uncle whos groundstaff there or whatever and has some info on the rumour, when we are linked with someone at leeds theres someone whos mate's brother is a cleaner at the club etc. am i the only bloody one with no friends or family involved with a football club? Im resorted to actually checking sky sports football for the transfer talk! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc0000 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) I don't know anyone at the club so I leave it to some of our more informed (bulls*******) users to keep me up to date with the views and thoughts of TTA and co...

Roger Ritchie Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I know a couple of the players but I never ask them anything about the club, occasionally they will tell me if something exciting is happening or something funny happened. I’m not one to quiz them constantly because I never used to when we were younger before they started playing so I don’t see the point in starting now. Plus I hate talking shop about myself.

ghostofcecere Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 The parents of my mate at school sold their house in Shaw to Andy Ritchie..... so everything I say is 100% true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shefflatic Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 (edited) right, for the record: - my dad knows an 'important' person at the club (emphasis on the ' ') but hardly has any real contact with them - my hairdresser (home service freelancer) cuts chris taylor's girlfriends hair - a mate of mine lives next door but one to AR in shaw - i was almost taught to drive by Kenny C as live near him, but was put off by reports of his 'aggressive behaviour' with new drivers lol thats about it, nothing special as you can see, but thought id add in my share given the way this thread is going Edited January 15, 2010 by shefflatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Ritchie Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 David Beresford took our football training at school once. He was too quick for me and I mistimed a challenge and caught him pretty heavily. He limped off but still signed my Latics shirt. Top bloke.
