Luxo Jr. Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 I agree that it seems a hack, no sign of a photo with a shirt, the article photo looks a little photoshopped. Sure it's done, but this doesn't seem the official announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked in IT for years and something is a miss. Bcfctweets is still silent and we know we control that. Even Tomlin is silent still! Or someone jumped the gun in posting it? Especially considering he's been photographed. Hope you don't work in IT anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't say that but easier to spoof a website than hack our Twitter account. Both our Twitter and a certain prolific poster haven't said one word. Seems legit?!?!

Ivorguy Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 I have said before the club needs to up its game and in the 21st century tell fans what is going on OK no one expects them to be 100% transparent but the Tomlin business urgently needs a proper Press Release. Come on City get a grip!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadredfred Posted July 5, 2016 Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 Couldn't give a monkeys how it's been announced. At last there is some actual news! I'd much rather be welcoming a new player with a hashed web leak, then reading how we're "shocked at championship wages" seamlessly across all media platforms. Welcome Tomlin! Happy, happy days.

Been quite a sunny day today. I wonder why they don't want to release it yet? I don't doubt it's a legit article but it was dodgy from the time it came out.

Fair enough, I was looking at the Screenshot of the article. Now I saw a full picture it looks more genuine. Still weird though, completely different to Brownhill and O Neil. I also agree that it's shameful that the U21 players don't get their own article, whoever is to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
