Paid hacks on football forums

[Mark Tobias]

Okay so I just have to know how many people think this is a thing. I don't deny it is possible. I think paid hacks have certainly become a major part of every topic which draws people in. We see this in the political sphere of things quite often.

Maybe the best way to do this is to see how many of you think this is going on and if you have any evidence of such.

Guys, let's not turn this thread into a mud slinging contest. I'm not sure the mods or posters on here would appreciate singling people out so none of that please.

This is what happens when you enter the Squad Cost thread.

I hear Soros is behind this entire conspiracy.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

There are some with very forthright opinions, but I'm not sure if anyone is being paid. If they are, they're not doing a particularly good job.

It would explain a lot

There definitely aren't paid hacks ffs, don't be silly.

Btw, have you guys tried the newest Tide Laundry Detergent™? It keeps my shirts super shiny and clean! I heard it's cheap, and available at your local supermarket. Go out and get some now!

Who exactly would pay these people? Wenger himself?
By the way, I think you all should appreciate how much Kronke has done for this club. Wenger tries his best to f things up, thank god we have Kronke to steer the ship.

Been thinking for a while that maybe Piers Morgan has been paying DT and a few on here. Guys constantly trawling Twitter threads to post stats that Arsenal are sh*t away in March and April, especially when it's raining.

When you don't understand how modern football works can see how you could think that

Under enhanced interrogation in the Squad Cost thread, I admitted to "KROENKE SUCKS" that I receive £10 per anti-Wenger comment I make. Because that's the only reason that anyone would post anything like that, right?

Why would anyone pay for something that's free?

You could just as easily charge the haters, people clearly manifesting their own personal self-loathing into displacement towards a sports team and its personnel. Hating the team they love is free therapy!

It doesn't help their parent-anger issues, but it still has some cathartic effects.

It's Russian bots, not paid hacks. Allegedly.

 

[BBF]

By paid hacks do you mean John Cross?

 

[Gegen Pressing]

David Smith bankrolled by Piers Morgan? Conspiracy theories ... fascinating.

Once you've glued your fingernails back on,you should demand more money

Not sure about Hacks but I would imagine some players have a peek every now and then. Its human instinct to want to know what people/fans say about you, it's no different to twitter or any other social media, they are interested!

With that in mind I hope the Chilean midget has a nightmare career at Old Toilet and falls out with Mourinho, erm, lets say sometime this month. Oh and while I am it, Welbeck, you're rubbish!

 

[Jury]

Ok, I'll come clean. I'm not a hack, but I was contacted and ended up agreeing a 12 month contract to mercilessly bash Özil. Amazingly, the contract expired at the exact moment Mesut hit amazing form! I've heard via PM that others have had offers to bash Xhaka, Elneny and even... even (and this hurts me deeply) Wenger

 

[Tir Na Nog]

No comment.

Sorry guys, this belongs in the dump. Had a good laugh seeing the replies though.
