Dont shoot the messenger.

Simple.

Or just dont read the messageboard. Carl doesnt sign his updates in
blood or offer up his first born in sacrifice if he's wrong.

Chill the f**k out folks

As all football fans know transfers can change in a second Carl is just giving us info that we all want if it does not come off does it really matter if you dont't like it don't read it .

Aye but the problem is that whenever something he 'has just received a phone call' on, or 'has been told', turns out to have some truth then you get people saying 'spot on Carl' etc.

Also you get certain posters who insist he is right 99% of the time which in fairness, is ludicrous.

From the outside looking in, there seems to be a split on here. There are this who hang on his every word and refuse to accept he is ever wrong and those who believe its all done purely to generate more hits for the site.

Personally I think that even a blind man would hit the dartboard every now and again if he threw enough darts.

No, your site owner states all opinions are welcome. If you have an issue with that I suggest you take it up with him.

Ludicrous ; Laughable or hilarious because of the absolute absurdity or incongruity.

On Tuesday afternoon Carl posted an update saying he had been told Cardiff had made a £1.5m bid for Jamie Mackie and a loan moe for Tommy Smith both from QPR. It has now been established that both those statements were true and only the comment that Swansea were interested in Smith is open for conjecture. However Carl only ever said it was what he had been told which when related to our club was "Spot On". Not laughable, hilarious, absurd or ludicrous.

Carl also stated that Cardiff we still hopeful of completing a deal for Craig Noone which again we now know to be the case as the club only abandoned their pursuit of this player at 4.00pm that day.

At that time the club having been turned back by QPR and Brighton the club moved for Marvin Sordell at Watford, and at 4.30pm Watford accepted a £3m bid. Sordells agent discussed personal terms with the club and no further contact was made until 7.30pm when Cardiff contacted Watford for the paperwork only to be told they had accepted a better offer from Bolton. Cardiff refused to improve their bed and the rest is history. All of this took place after Carl posted his update but it does nothing to discredit the information he posted earlier.

In fairness it disrespectful to describe believing what Carl posts as ludicrous for the simple reason that so much of what he says turns out to be accurate.

The thing is so many people accused Carl of posting nonsense when he said that Craig Bellamy would be signing for Cardiff City, that was apparently a laughable, hilarious, absurd and utterly ludicrous update.

Still happened though didn't it.

No, the point is you pulled up my comment on the 99% accuracy and then avoided a direct question.

In fairness to Carl, and others who post on Deadline Day, it is probably reasonable to say that not even the players themselves know where they are going to end up - never mind the likes of Malky and Carl.

Sordell is the perfect example of this. It sounds like a deal was in place and that he was already to come to SWales yet. Who knows he may already have been on Rightmove looking at properties to buy. Yet, in the space of half an hour, he is suddenly plying his trade at Bolton.

In these circumstances I dont think anyone could be criticised for getting it wrong.

Aye but the problem is that whenever something he 'has just received a phone call' on, or 'has been told', turns out to have some truth then you get people saying 'spot on Carl' etc.

Still happened though didn't it.

By the way, can you please show me where it has been established that Carl's post have been proved to be correct.

I think you got the scatter gun out with that statement please try and be specific at least that we give me a chance to reply.

Is it actually a matter of him being right or wrong though? Surely if he is only passing on what he has been told by someone who is looking from the inside out, can we really give him any grief about it if it turns out circumstances change? We all know how quickly something in football can take a sudden turn! Many people slag Carl off for passing on info, even worse if it turns out something he says changes, but these are usually the very people who always want to know the ins and out of everything.

Well actually you have now avoided the direct question twice and preferred to try and be a clever c**t. Try being the operative word there.

It is ludicrous for anyone to suggest that 99% of Carl's posts are accurate.

My My foul personal insults how unfortunate that you have decided to reduce a perfectly reasonable discussion to that level

Tut Tut.

How unfortunate that you feel unable to answer a straight question but would rather avoid it.

Aye but the problem is that whenever something he 'has just received a phone call' on, or 'has been told', turns out to have some truth then you get people saying 'spot on Carl' etc.

Also you get certain posters who insist he is right 99% of the time which in fairness, is ludicrous.

From the outside looking in, there seems to be a split on here. There are this who hang on his every word and refuse to accept he is ever wrong and those who believe its all done purely to generate more hits for the site.

Personally I think that even a blind man would hit the dartboard every now and again if he threw enough darts.

Ludicrous ; Laughable or hilarious because of the absolute absurdity or incongruity.

On Tuesday afternoon Carl posted an update saying he had been told Cardiff had made a £1.5m bid for Jamie Mackie and a loan moe for Tommy Smith both from QPR. It has now been established that both those statements were true and only the comment that Swansea were interested in Smith is open for conjecture. However Carl only ever said it was what he had been told which when related to our club was "Spot On". Not laughable, hilarious, absurd or ludicrous.

Carl also stated that Cardiff we still hopeful of completing a deal for Craig Noone which again we now know to be the case as the club only abandoned their pursuit of this player at 4.00pm that day.

At that time the club having been turned back by QPR and Brighton the club moved for Marvin Sordell at Watford, and at 4.30pm Watford accepted a £3m bid. Sordells agent discussed personal terms with the club and no further contact was made until 7.30pm when Cardiff contacted Watford for the paperwork only to be told they had accepted a better offer from Bolton. Cardiff refused to improve their bed and the rest is history. All of this took place after Carl posted his update but it does nothing to discredit the information he posted earlier.

In fairness it disrespectful to describe believing what Carl posts as ludicrous for the simple reason that so much of what he says turns out to be accurate.

The thing is so many people accused Carl of posting nonsense when he said that Craig Bellamy would be signing for Cardiff City, that was apparently a laughable, hilarious, absurd and utterly ludicrous update.

Read back your original post and please explain where it has been established that Carl was correct with the names and deals you referred to.

I've avoided nothing I will say again the answer is in my original post it's not my fault that you appear to lack the capacity to see it.

Thank you for refraining from the foul personal insults we really don't like it on this board you know.
