All right now. Here we go. The fourth reply was the straw that has broken the camel’s back. I dislike doing this, but sometimes enough is enough. For the past year I have been biting my tongue on this matter. I enjoy this community. I love engaging in it’s coffee house atmosphere opposed to the ether of a nightclub. Given my freshman status, I preferred to mostly defer to the seniors of the Forum. To usually go along to get along. Still, when I choose to, I can still critically think. These reactions to my post are feral. Of mob rule mentality. Unbecoming. And most important, undeserving. Posturing shaped by presumption and consensus unchecked is fallible and elitist in thinking.
In comparison, predominantly, relatively, on a reasonable scale of more or less, Niccola Schira does not make stuff up. He is as much a Fake News transfer journalist as all of them are; the entire lot that make such reporting the primary focus of their brand. He has as much and as little sources as most of them. He makes things up as much and as little as most of them. Some are just smarter at managing it than others. To believe otherwise is foolish. It is today accepted nature of being a so called Transfer Specialist. Pandering to the lowest common denominator; a by-product of the social and media environment. His reporting is as credible and reliable as the best or worse of them. Why? Because Nicolo Schira at best is an opportunist and at worst a fraud. I presume on the occasions not from a cultivated source or not attributed to one, ahem, made up, he then appropriates, that is plagiarizes, the reports of others as his own. The content is as correct or wrong as those source journalists would have reported. This is the essential assertion that Colin Millar confirms in his expose. He is not wrong, He is the News Editor of Football Espana, he does seem to be motivated by a personal peeve, yet contributes as a football opinionist/analyst regularly to that pillar of scholarly publication, The Daily Mirror, a tabloid filled with sensational stories targeting the blue-collar class.

However for anyone to judge Nicola Schira in such a manner, by such measures, must understand the inherent nature of the pool those pundits choose to swim in every day. Hopefully you may be enlightened by this background read from the FourFourTwo staff…

And then… now… be subject to the same standards. This cry that Fabrizio Romano is better than Nicolo Schira in my opinion is a distinction without a difference. Nonsensical. Because those who rabidly advocate Colin Millar’s position must then accept those that subscribe to the exposes of…
