Had you heard of and read Hexus.net before word of this got round to you? This would probably not have been posted had it not come from a reliable source. As Bob has stated
"We've been unable to get Watford to confirm or deny these rumours - but have been told that the Financial Director Ricki Raqeeb will call us back."
Which to me would suggest that hexus has done their bit to verify this. Its been a day since this was posted and the longer it goes on without Watford E saying anything the worse it looks. I'm sorry but thats just a fact. If nothings wrong why hasn't anything been said? I for one would want to quell rumors like this straight away if I was running a company and nothing was wrong.
Maybe this rumor is true, maybe it isn't but if theres a chance that savastore goes under soon, us readers who spend the money should be informed; and thats all hexus has done. They've informed us, you can't knock them for that.
