chris182 6,366 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Sunday Post having a punt now. Is on £90k p/w at Bournemouth, we're picking up £35k p/w. Closer to the truth for me. What's Alfie on, maybe £25k? https://www.sundaypost.com/fp/Rangers-35000-per-week-gamble-on-striker-jermain-defoe/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you just pull a story out your arse and publish it in a paper then it leaves you liable to censure by the press watchdog. If the original author of the Times story didn't have any source for his claims then it's something that could see them pulled up on it. Depending of on the severity of any sanctions it could well see someone binned if they just make any old shite up without it being properly sourced.

That's a fair leap ignoring the fact a complaint would have to be made, investigated, an apology or retraction would likely resolve it all. This allegation of 65k isn't a job at risk, scandalous libellous comment ffs which is why it could easily have been provided with no valid source. And my main point was that press folk just regurgitate shite with no indication of any source / truth from the outset. That's wrong. Press print any shite they want then 6 months later there's an apology for it being inaccurate on page 52 beside obituaries.

Shower of pricks, the whole profession 👍 He would have to have a source for it to be published at all. Stuff is regurgitated because there's an assumption that everyone meets the same bar for publishing a story and does so within the IPSO guidelines. There's good reason why there's often no indication of who the source is. Journos have an obligation to protect the identity of any sources they have. Legally, they can't be compelled to identify a source. If you simply name your sources then there's no future info off them. It doesn't need to be scandalous or libellous to require a source. The very first clause of the editors code is about the accuracy of a story. There was one upheld just last week involving a flute band becuase their picture was used beside a story and they felt the implication was that it meant they were directly involved. Neither libellous not scandalous but still an upheld complaint by IPSO. I can safely say that NOBODY wants to have an IPSO ruling against there name because it fucks you over if/when you look to move to another outlet. Any retraction/clarification/apology should generally be published with the same prominence as the original story. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's never articles printed where there's no credible source providing the author with inside info? That's your view? 2. Hardly ever the case in reality.

The problem I see if we were paying that would be how much it would unsettle the other players that we have smashed our wage structure to smithereens. I don’t believe it either but I don’t know how else it’s possible to find out exactly what we are paying him, but even if we are paying that, it’s still a good deal costing us 1m per transfer window, if it works out and he stays 18 month then imo, it’s 3m well spent if it doesn’t work then we terminate his loan and we get rid risk free as for unsettling players already in the squad, some of them probably never good enough to be on the same park as a player with Defoe’s quality but if they aspire to get to his level and dedicate themselves to their football then that’s the salary you get when you reach the top i actually hope he is on that dosh, it surely keeps him motivated, playing in scotland on a premiership wage instead of him thinking, fs they are paying me the salary I got when I first started out paying £65,000 pw in Scotland is a sure way to bankruptcy but when you look at the figures and facts of the deal it’s not as bad as first thoughts, the fact we can terminate it if we feel we need to is the main bonus Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
