Maybe I've just been unlucky in terms of the games I've seen him play in and he's better than I give him credit for, but every time I've seen Luke Thomas play (not just against Forest) he's been shite.

I’m the same. I just don’t see it with Thomas. I think he must just have an inflated reputation because he plays for England u21s.

A modern day Joe Mattock.

This is the best post I've ever read :ROFLMAO: I didn't expect to ever hear the name Joe Mattock again!

Saw him play for someone against Mansfield (Harrogate I think?) earlier this season. I had forgotten he had existed up until that point!

Was reading that earlier. Only signed fro Spezia last year having been shopped about.

Out of interest, to get the Twitter posts to show like yours do you just copy the URL into the post?

Is Pete O'rourke reliable? I don't know why but I have some prejudice that's telling me he's a bullshitter. I think Percy is only in that second category because of Moreno, who had all but joined, only to renege at the last minute.

Pete O'Rourke was reliable when he worked for Sky Sports, but became less so when he joined "Football Insider" and got infected by their bullshit.

He does get a lot right and does get loads of genuine exclusives.

I guarantee your prejudice is due to the branding on his account, it just looks like a fan account set up to be an ITK with a grainy picture from 2006. But he’s worked 20 years for Sky & ESPN - now he’s freelance & publishes on a rumour site which does host complete BSers, another reason he comes off as unreliable.

He did get one very wrong the other day - posting an exclusive that Derby were in advanced talks with a player, only for that player to be announced by Charlton 4 hours later.

Though obviously Derby aren't on many peoples radar.

Trolling Derby though, funny 🤣

Maybe the info he got was league one / championship yo yo club, their manager is a bit of a bellend and he forgot Warne wasn’t still there.

I think he’s definitely still got links in the Midlands though. If he said we were signing a Brazilian player from Santos I wouldn’t pay attention, but if he said we were trying to sign a sixteen year old from Burton, it’s probably true.
