I'm not claiming anything because frankly i don't know and nor do you . My reading of it , is that they reported it in good faith and it was true at the time. (its ambiguous anyway - its a single tweet saying "no" to stories (unspecified) about Maupay that particular day. You think it was an...

Actually the Argus afaik reported that Dunk was 95% likely to stay, and at one point Brian Owen reported via a Midlands source that they were interested in Tarkowski as a replacement not Dunk. They've also reported the figure that Bloom slapped on Dunk to ward off (presumably Leicester and...

Fine. you don't treat their work as gospel. And you think they "often get it wrong" about transfer rumours . Fine. Not sure even the harsher critics on here think that. (CMS ? Zamora ? any others). But fair enough.

I've just engaged in a lengthy thread with you quoting articles, links and tweets and answering your questions. Hardly "ignoring the facts". Also saying i trust their reporting is not the same as claiming "Whatever they say goes" .

I've no idea. I trust their reporting and you don't. I think thats extremely undeserved but clearly you don't. Fair enough.

https://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/17807665.albion-play-waiting-game-morocco-striker/ They also said the club were targeting Maupay on July 24th https://www.theargus.co.uk/sport/17789972.two-go-albion-quest-signings-continues/ and in tweets from their reporters before that post the knock back...

If this ambiguous tweet out of 100s in the past 10 years knocking back rumour after rumour , all correct, is the one you want to cite as a reason to ignore the good work of Naylor and now Owen for Albion fans during this blizzard of nonsense, clickbait and agent speculation then fair enough. I...

The tweet where Naylor knocks back stories / rumours about him was on June 10th. Nearly 2 months ago.

The Argus with Naylor in previous season and Owen this season have knocked back, correctly, probably hundreds of transfer speculation stories written by others (from the mail, the Sun to irksome fake transfer twitter accounts) . week after week . And you think the Argus are the embarrassment...

Naylor was actually asked specifically "any truth in" [presumably rumours about Maupay - not whether the club was "interested" - it wasn't that specific] . How do you know if it was incorrect ? It was 7 weeks ago. If they said there was no truth in Maupay rumours at the time then they would...

So the Argus reporting that 7 or 8 weeks ago that we’d not bid for Maupay - Even though it subsequently confirmed interest weeks before the signing yesterday also ...invalidates their, as it turns out, likely correct reporting on Dunk. (Even when it was also backed up by non Argus reporters)...

The Argus reported all summer their line, as shared with them by a good source, that Dunk was “95%” likely to stay. They also reported all summer that we were interested in Maupay. “What was wrong (again) “ about that ?

Owen has scoffed at this one already ... Always sounded unlikely.

Drinkwater ?

How’s the window shaping up now B.W/B.W2 ?

If even our manager saying just a few hours ago that he would be staying “Absolutely, yes” doesn’t convince you I’m not sure anything else would. B.W/B.W 2

Potter - “he’s staying “ https://twitter.com/brian__owen/status/1157390263465250818?s=21

Nope. Still not... https://twitter.com/lauriewhitwell/status/1157262380184821760?s=21

Which bit ? Bloom doesn’t want to sell, doesn’t have to sell, has priced Dunk to make suitors think twice ? That Leicester have other options if Maguire left. ? That Albion want Webster...and Dunk given inexperience of Clarke ?

I think Tony via reporting “close to the club” has made the Dunk position pretty clear. He doesn’t want to sell, doesn’t need to sell and he’s unusually put a figure out there to scare off suitors - £45m+ Anyway here we are - a week to go and Maguire isn’t sold, and reporting suggests that...
