The mind boggles at what the club's back-up plan is, if this is true.
I honestly don't understand why anyone would believe that ITK posts on a message board (whichever one) have anything to do with truth. There was a time long, long ago when the club had a Deep Throat and an association with ice-cream lickers, but that is no longer the case.

From what I can see most of these posts (and the fee or salary figures that are also sprayed around) come from pure sad-kid-in-a-bedroom wind ups on the net, from people like Abbandonato or Witcoop who need to appear relevant and connected (even when the quality of their so-called information is often shit) and from home grown posters who need attention and think they are bound to get it right one day!
