Incorrect about what? I suggested you worked as a contributor to a Twitter page with a large following and guessed it might be @fact. I haven't seen anything to suggest that you run/own/manage a 3M Twitter account or that you started this account from scratch.

I know someone who works on the social media team for British Airways and sends out Tweets for them. That doesn't mean they have 1.4m Twitter followers and BA could bin them off and stop them tweeting whenever they wanted.

You tell me what this Twitter account is and you share a Tweet on in about Mark Poole on there and I will be very impressed and give you a big well done but unfortunately it wont stop me posting on here :D

I've been straight up about not believing and unlike some others i've not tried to have a go at you about it and been quite positive. Bottom line is until I see the evidence I dont believe you
Far too many paragraphs. Just admit you were talking crap and been proven wrong, and we can all move on.

What stream are you watching? There is one hell of a delay. We'll be scoring against Wolves soon.

Fretters has already backed it. And I'm not "doing a Wellsy" either.

Sigh. Not sure why this has become the focus of the thread, but I suppose it keeps the thread near the top of the board. I'm not having somebody called a liar when I know they aren't, though. I've watched 'Frank' grow his @Fact Twitter account for years now and he's brilliant at it. I've seen him share stuff on there that he's told me about beforehand, and he's given me help with my own business's social media pages.

He's made a generous offer to help a fellow claret so let's stop with the pathetic need to see proof.

This is pretty much what I suggested and the only difference I have is that I believe he will be one of many paid contributors to the site (which I also said if true is a good thing to be a part of) rather than the owner.

If he is the owner and he has spent the last 14 years building this up on his own (or even in a small group of people) then I think he's done fantastic. He did however indicate he could get your message across to his 3M twitter followers and if thats through @fact then I dont see how because all the site posts is articles about fun facts and has no other content.

Anyway good look to you in getting the support you need for Mark and I hope he's ok. I was very polite and pleasant to Frank yesterday and it was him who came back on here today poking the stick at me that has continued this discussion on.

I don't want to be Mr Negative here but they surely have no chance of procuring three separate medics with the right qualifications and taking them off the front line for a minimum of two weeks, in the middle of a global pandemic. The situation is awful but I guess this is one of the pitfalls of moving to a country with no free at the point of access healthcare. Would it not be easier to cover the costs in China in the short term then look at visiting once things (hopefully) calm down here (as China looks to have stabilised)?

All the best to them anyway, and I will contribute this eve.

I've no idea of the ins and outs to be honest, his daughter just asked me to share the charity page on here. I imagine they're confident of getting it done if they've been given a full cost to it all.

Of course you do.

And I resent the fact you think I spend all day in my undercrackers. I've since invested in a mankini and I take selfies. Check out my website.
