If he goes to Bournemouth then yes, hands up I was wrong and I’ll be disappointed in him and also the club for messing up the transfer window and best opportunity to get our act together in years.
If he stays, as happened after the Burnley nonsense, then I can absolutely guarantee that those who’ve been pushing this rumour will not be on here saying ‘sorry, got it wrong. I shouldn’t have ran with a baseless internet rumour and kept pushing it like it was fact or based on some tangible evidence’.
In fact they’ll use it in the same way they’ve used the Burnley nonsense for the last 6 months…. Zero lessons learned.
The point is people take internet rumour and treat it like its gospel and anybody who says ‘hold on a minute, is there any evidence for this?’ are somehow the bad guys? Okkaaaayyyyy.
