i don’t normally plug channels or anything like that but I’m bringing to your attention this current episode.

There’s what I think is a really excellent summary as to where we are at.

Dave starts talking at just before the two minute mark.



Found it really eloquent and interesting.

Let me know what you think.

Do we have to pay a tenner?

I know Jimmy's not everybody's cup of tea, but I find his channel generally excellent. For content and frequency is about the best blades related channel out there currently.
 
I watch him and subscribe. Not for the paid stuff mind. I like most Blades related opinions. This might go down like a cup of cold sick on here though with the old 'cess pit" shabarcile.
 
The content with his two pals was always alright. I see above Man Mountain left, thought the three mardy blades was OK so shame that’s happened.
 
You don't even need to subscribe.
A few on here have it in for Jimmy and his pay walls.

I like Dave, he's incredibly level headed.
They don’t have it in for him because of his paywalls, they have it in for him because he’s constantly making stuff up for clicks.

Whoooo remembers Souttar and Clarke being done deals?

He’s symptomatic of this new world of ‘content creators’ and was he the one who live streams his reaction to George Baldock.

I really liked Blades Pod when they was going, deep analysis, offered up some interesting insights, especially tactically and with the data analysis when Jay used to do it as well and informed and educated.

It was like finding a diamond in a cess pool of turds.

I don’t mind the channel at all, but the rumour side of things is a delicate one. Most of the time his information isn’t particularly accurate, so he probably needs to rethink how he handles that part.

That said, channels like this are almost essential now. In a strange way they actually help build a club’s profile. More people tune into watchalongs with the likes of Mark Goldbridge than some clubs get through the turnstiles. His streams pull in 40–50k viewers.

Yes I watched it and Dave the nose was on the money.
Hopefully it gets back to Wilder

But it’s the nature of the transfer market.
I know someone at director level, don’t see them often…maybe 2 times a year.

But they’ve told me some right stories about players signing “done deal”, 99% certain.
Then on the day they are about to sign they receive a better offer from another club and go there instead.
Transfer business in the final week is absolute madness…hence you need target A, back up target B and even further backup target C.
But every club does this….so weird stuff can happen days before the deadline or even on deadline day.

So was this made up? No…it was real….that player had agreed to come.
Another common situation is deals are agreed “done deal” but clubs say they are hoping to buy player X….then when that happens they’ll allow our deal to go through. Basically we’re in chain….stuff can go wrong….so “done deals” are often 80 to 90% certain…best to never take them as fact.

You can’t win on transfer rumours. Probably for every one deal that comes off there were a other 4 or 5 we were in for that didn't take place.

Fact is people want to know things before they happen. But then when it doesn’t go to plan, they moan.

Can’t have it both ways.
 
This...
He can stick it up his arse and blow it outta his gob.

And this...
I preferred it when tha went to match , waited outside local newsagents for a greenun
Then if tha wa lucky enough to have a wireless......listened to praise & grumble
This constant stream of content creators gets right on my ......tits .
They just wanna be relevant...in reality no one cares .

Gossip monger wankers making shit up in a desperate attempt to become relevant and popular. How sad that grown men have this desire and how sad that people need this kind of inane crap.

UTBFTP 👊👊👊

Could you just summarise the summary for the ‘cesspit’? 🤔
