I think the real shame is that a single twitter account

chose to raise this story at all, because there is probably little in it.

It also showed up Archant for the hacks they are; updates on the health of Forsyth and Myles are as frequent as Haley's Comet, yet first sniff of a 'national' story there's Paddy, putting Clement on the spot about Tavares.

        I would assume it’s because they don’t think there’s enough interest (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 22, 12:56:20
