It's weird. I do get some ITK stuff but seldom share it on the transfer thread as any decent info is asked to be kept pretty private. Yet there's a load of lids not on the wind up genuinely staking a claim to transfer info.
The club locked up shop in terms of info a few years ago, since Moyes left. How many times do you hear about the starting line up the night before the game anymore?
I was with a couple of Everton staff in prominent positions this week for a pint and neither of them knew anything about transfers. Nor would I expect them to, if they did then the club are doing it wrong, there's no more competitive market in sport than the Premier League and player recruitment is vital to the margins which deliver success. If it was getting leaked from the club (agents are another story) then you would be stamping that out. They do read the forums you know.
It doesn't make any difference if you know before we sign anyone so why not save yourself the obsessing and wait until they're in front of the Finch Farm tiles all confirmed? The transfer rumour thing was something started by Rupert Murdoch, you're helping perpetuate it.
