SSN are now reporting there has been no Arsenal bid and that Keith Lamb has said only 2 clubs have made an offer for the player. Sky now looking to 'sweep this under the carpet' faster than they can say 'egg on face'.
They first take a slice of news from their 'rival' station (Setanta News) that Arsenal have bid for Woodgate. Yellow ticker follows and then we are treated to the usual trash they churn out when they claim to have an exclusive.
All based on unconfirmed reports, we get to listen to emails sent in by fans and bookie odds (making Arsenal the odds on favs to sign the player). Then the yellow ticker disappears and not too soon after we are told there has been no 3rd club and that Boro have confirmed this and that now, Woodgate is odds on to sign for Spurs.
All damning evidence of the previous exclusive gone and not to be mentioned again.
It's cheap tv at its very best. Like an interactive copy of The Sun.

They have to make a story stretch for hours at a time. Its humorous to watch them get all giddy with excitement about an exclusive only to then backtrack and get all giddy with excitement on the complete opposite of the story they were getting giddy about.
Now i'm confused.
