FFN know no more than you or me. Just another football site as far as I am concerned.

They just regurgitate tweets

That is what he does in the main but I know he's linked in with Jack Kelly and others in the journalist circles. They all struggle to get much info out of the club but any tip bits he gets on the grapevine he mentions. Sure he is at least a little more connected than 99% of us.

 :slap:

I have no connections at the club and I'm not sure they have either. Of the stuff they post how much if any of it ever actually becomes reality? And a huge amount gets posted. They have not got a clue. Much like me.

Jack Kelly is the only who has actual connections in the club.

There is NO Fulham supporter including Jack Kelly or Fulham Fan News that has a clue what's going on with regards to transfers ,
Prove me wrong if you like and point me in the direction of any post in the past where they've broken any transfer storey before it's been in the public domain,
It's never happened and it never will,
Ask them about the new shirt or the new sponsor they won't have a clue ,
Sorry.

He called Fig Rolls on here about 7 hours before Jack Kelly did which as far as I could see was the first thing in the public domain on it. That was when I started believing he was getting some info from somewhere. If anyone can explain that go for it but seemed pretty conclusive to me that he was getting some info from someone and in that case it panned out. Who knows for sure but it was a pretty impressive call.

ITk believe it no way.don take this seriously.

I'm sorry but as Block C has stated JK is a lovely chap but he has not a scooby do about what is happening at the club. He has pretty much said so himself. None of these Twitter lot have. FFC keep all their transfer business very tight. You may as well be asking the tooth fairy who she thinks we are going to sign.

He posts every rumour whether BS or not. It is a site to just collate everything into one place which people find useful. He has a medal system for journalist reliability and most are bronze with only really the likes of Rutzler and Romano gold so doesn't pretend it's all reliable info.

He then posts little bits he has heard directly on a separate chat im logged onto. Where he gets those bits of info I don't know but it's just bits he's heard directly on the grapevine by the sounds of and imagine some is more reliable than others. Cant see any reason gir him to make up what he's heard as no benefit to him at all. I've been posting them on here as thought folk may be interested on a silly season rumour thread but don't think I'll bother anymore considering the reaction as doesn't look like anyone is!

Agree very little is leaked so why are we even on this thread?! May as well just wait for the notification on the Fulham app when someone gets signed.

 :slap:

They do get tiny bits but not much. Jack has broken a couple of stories recently that then got backed up by bigger journos. He has said he gets told little bits here and there which does make sense...he is actually in the club every week interviewing Marco so sure he must have some connections there and hears the odd bit. Agree not much however.

Quote from: JimmyConway on July 18, 2025, 09:51:47 PMCommon thread re Nelson ?
" if he stays fit"
Everyone to a man has doubts and quite right to. If he was signing for any other team we would be laughing but for some reason he is going to be injury free at Fulham next season!
I really hope he gets an injury free run but not sure he is as good as some make out?
Agree with all of the above JC
Some on here have a very small reality filter.

Honestly this thread is the highlight of the summer on here, the arguements etc etc etc.

Just not true in anyway.

Has broken almost all of the contract extensions this summer before anyone, including Ridgeon yesterday.

Broke that Fulham were interested in Rocco Reitz, confirmed by Plettenberg who is the number one in Germany.

And funny you mention the shirt as he was the one who broke it was delayed because of an issue with the sleeve sponsor.

Love Walberswick, beautiful village in a lovely part of the world. Mind you it must be a first for Walberswick to feature on a transfer thread!

As to ITKs, I've always regarded them with a very, very healthy dose of scepticism. But all that nonsense helps make the thread entertaining I guess.

Quote from: DM on July 18, 2025, 05:10:40 AMFulham hoping to have an agreement for Nelson in the next 48hrs ⏳

Without trying to be rude, is this not a given seeing as Arsenal fly out to Singapore tomorrow? Sami Mokbel's piece said all parties were working towards concluding the deal as quickly as possible, ideally before Saturday. It's a shame there have been no further updates in the press since the story broke on Wednesday afternoon. I don't understand how a deal like this is dragging on in all honesty, especially when the player wants the move.

If we hear nothing before this evening, the biggest sign will surely be if Nelson travels with them or not. Fingers crossed he doesn't!

He's not on the plane.

Goalkeepers: David Raya, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Tommy Setford, Alexei Rojas-Fedorushchenko.

Defenders: William Saliba, Ben White, Gabriel Magalhaes, Jurrien Timber, Jakub Kiwior, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Riccardo Calafiori, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Josh Nichols, Marli Salmon.

Midfielders: Martin Odegaard, Christian Norgaard, Mikel Merino, Sambi Lokonga, Martin Zubimendi, Declan Rice, Louie Copley.

Forwards: Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard, Ethan Nwaneri, Reiss Nelson, Kai Havertz, Ismeal Kabia, Max Dowman, Andre Harriman-Annous.

I said hoping... The negotiations are still ongoing. I'd rather we get the price we want instead of paying the obligation they want.

You said he's not on the plane.

At the time of posting the info I had was he wasn't on the plane. 🤷🏻�♂️

Im not for slating anyone, nor do I have any opinion on DM, but the phrase "things change" is the unlimited "get out of jail free card" for all the Twitter ITKs. Very handy.

That and "im just passing on what Ive been told". Bulletproof

(Apologies if this has already featured.) Not transfer news but not worthy of starting a new topic either so I'll post it here:

NEW: 🇩🇪 Fulham goalkeeper Bernd Leno is reportedly being investigated by German state security after allegedly liking a viral AI video on Instagram showing a vehicle being driven into a crowd of people.
The caption says:
"There will be Pride parades in GTA 6."
 "Me, as soon as I enter the game:"
A bisexual influencer filed a complaint against the former Bayer Leverkusen and Arsenal keeper for inciting hatred against the LGBT community.
Cologne police confirmed Leno is under investigation.
His representatives told Bild, "He distances himself from the video, which he never knowingly liked. He will hire a lawyer."

Do you think they should know everything about every transfer at all times? On the off-chance DM actually has a source at the club, I doubt that source knows everything either unless that source is Marco himself.
