That's the sky sports website. SSN is a TV channel which would be about on par with the BBC website in terms of accuracy. ie. very accurate.Quote:

That's about all from the above article that can be associated with Sky Sports News.
looks like we are replacing Bobby and Stan with Giovanni and Liam.
well you dont expect me to tape ssn, throw it up to youtube, and link it?Quote:

How do you know they're "unsubstantiated rumours with no grain of truth or respectability"? When SSN say that Trapattoni is having talks about the Ireland job then you can be sure he is having talks about the Ireland job.Quote:

Just their past recording for making things up and saying them on air. for constantly being the only source for stories.Quote:

The difference is of course sometimes you can spot the fabricated bull**** and sometimes, like with trapattoni, its sounds semi realistic.
I just can't agree with that. It's on in my house regularly in the mornings and early afternoons so I've seen more than enough of it.Quote:

One man team my arse btw. He'd probably be gone from Barca if it wouldn't get Rijkaard the sack. I don't understand the reputation the channel has. I've never known it to get anything wrong that they claim as fact. The Houllier thing last week being the closest but they obviously got that from the FFF.
Maybe you're right and they're not as reliable as before though. I'm just overly biased towards the channel because of the reputation it has for being linked with the website and the rumour mill.
Thank you betfair mugs :DQuote:

And what did Paul Jewell ever win?? :confused:Quote:

The job has bi-passed Venables.
Totally bizzare betting on Trap on Betfair, a frenzied leap up to £155k in a couple of hours this afternoon then a deafening silence after 6pm.
promotion to the premier league twice. why?Quote:

One thing going for him is that formation. :) Keane would be the lone striker. Hunt the Camoranesi/Pereira. 2 or Duff/McGeady/Ireland would fill the other attacking spots. Carsley and Steven Reid in central midfield. Hunt would be required to get back when possession is lost but the other 3 attackers would usually stay up and wait for the break.
It wouldn't be the most beautiful football and would probably spend most matches sitting back for large portions but I'd say he'd give us as good a chance as anyone of getting to the world cup.
Maybe he'll get the assistant manager job.Quote:

I blush.
