Dream dream dream – Dunk and his “family”

(Warning: This is a long post).

Half an hour browsing around Koptalk yesterday afternoon gave me such a laugh. This was before I saw Dunk post his letter from the Irish businessman. As you probably know, unless you’re a new reader, this blog was set up to poke fun at a morbidly obese liar who took money from unsuspecting Reds in return for stories he made up about goings on at Anfield.

In no time at all it soon became clear that Oldham had no inside information whatsoever, he had not one single contact at the club. But it also became clear that Oldham’s “sins” were much more serious than pretending he had regular tea and cake with Rick Parry.

We also found his love of The S*n stretched further than him wearing a hat advertising the hated rag in France during the 1998 World Cup.

All of this is on the blog, accessible either by using the search button or using the quick links at the top of the page.

My half-hour had started off like days of old. Dunk lies to his members, telling them (or hinting) that he knows what’s happening inside the club. But he makes it all up as he goes along, and forgets most of it. In the old days this wasn’t much of a problem – if anyone questioned him about one of his old “exclusives” he’d just delete the question. Or on a generous day he’d give a quick fob-off for an answer, deleting the thread soon after, before too many got suspicious. And there’d be little evidence of his “exclusive” from those prior months. He’d make sure the posts didn’t stick around too long.

Yesterday one of his members remembered what Dunk had promised him. At the moment it’s impossible to tell who is a trusting member of Koptalk and who is a member fully-versed in Dunk’s scams and asking questions in mock innocence. I’ve no idea which of those “Dave100” counts as, or if he’s one those members who have started to wonder what the hell is going on inside the site they pay £30 for. Dunk had promised more information would be forthcoming in the second week of May about West Ham’s Tevez. But Dunk forgot, because Dunk’s a rather thick bungling idiot.

If he had a brain there’d be less material for the blog…

…option on Tevez?

We are into that 2nd week now.

Any news?

Or will it be after Sunday’s game do you think?

Cheers

(Cut to Wallsend and Steve has to use the wrong end of the broom handle to wake the gross liar from his slumbers. Removing his ear-plugs now that fatty has finally ceased snoring, the young apprentice points at the computer screen. Dunk has to think fast. And for someone who has trouble thinking, that’s a big ask…)

My thoughts were that we’d hear something around the 15th which a key date for us. However with us now reaching the final this changes things (in my opinion) so we may have to wait until after the final for these things to be addressed by the management.
- – - – - – - – - – - – - – - – -
(Even by your standards that’s poor Dunk. First of all, the 15th is actually in the third week of May, not the second, but the rest of it is absolute shite. We know you make things up, and this proves it. So Liverpool are going to turn round to the clubs of potential targets and say, “Oh, would you mind awfully if we didn’t talk about signings until after Athens? Could you tell other interested clubs to hang back as well? What’s that? Yes, I know we were discussing it right in the middle of the season, but this one extra match, big as it is, means we’ve got to stop chatting about transfers.” I’ve heard Rick Parry getting some stick today, and in the absence of answers to some of the questions asked it might turn out to be justified, but even Mr Parry’s not that inept. Poor show Dunk, poor show. “Dave100” pretends (I assume) to agree…)

Ok, thanks

I thought as much. Don’t want to unsettle the squad before the CL final i guess.

Stay focused and all that.

im due to fly out on sunday morning from ireland to go see liverpool play charlton on sunday. but i cant find my passport. i have searched high and low in the house and cant find it anywhere. had it for sure in march when we went to rome. any tips?????

I don’t want to comment much further than to say that this person has been mentioned on the blog before. He’s a victim who knows he’s a victim of Dunk’s scams. Think “ticket tout” and “FA Cup Final” and “£1600” plus “For Lauren”. And yet he goes back for more. I think anyone asking a forum for help on where he might have put his passport is probably beyond help, and proof of why Dunk’s found it so easy to rip so many people off…

Then I found this. What was Dunk doing, offering CL tickets for £1? Or to be more accurate, my thought process was more along the lines of, “What does the fat liar really mean by this?” It soon became clear…

I don’t have any tickets to sell – sorry.

We did receive a lovely email yesterday from a member of our ‘fan club’ pretending to be a businessman after flights and tickets… you can take the member out of KopTalk but you can’t take KopTalk out of the member
- – ———————-

I’ve just read that last comment again and can’t quite work out what Dunk meant. He’s saying that one of those many people that can’t stand him or his scams had emailed him pretending to be someone else. Using an alias perhaps? Claiming things that weren’t true, maybe? So why is Dunk saying “you can take the member out of KopTalk but you can’t take KopTalk out of the member”? I read that this way: If you become a Koptalk member, you learn about telling mistruths, or lies, and even when you leave, you’ll still be telling lies and so on. Is that what he meant? Is he admitting that Koptalk is run on a bed of lies? Or did he mean something else, but his thickness tripped him up? Who knows? Dunk doesn’t.

Shortly afterwards he posted the email from the businessman. Probably a bit of a backfire to do so, but Dunk rarely gets anything right.

Then again, he’s not the only one. Here’s another exciting post from the £30 members’ only website that nobody wants to join…

Just heard this from the next room to me…

“**** me! It’s printing 1173 pages, how do I stop it?!”

KopTalk… no. 1 for getting things right

So, after composing myself again at such a mirth-bringing post I started to wonder what the 1173 pages might have been from. Stolen credit card details from those trying to book flights through his scammy offer? Personal details taken illegally last summer by the anti-Red site from members who would not be allowed to use the product they’d paid for until they’d complied with these new rules (including the “post once a month or you’re out” rule)? Or was it the affiliate terms and conditions for the Virgin Games website fatty was using for his offer of tickets for £1? You see generous fatty was actually asking his members to sign up to Virgin Games’ Poker website, depositing whatever minimum they require. As part of this, Virgin Games have a game where you can win CL tickets. So you download the software (after clicking on the link that includes Fatty’s affiliate code) and fatty pockets a load of commission.

With any other site we’d not have a problem. But this is fatty, and he tries to sell this whole idea as if he’s got the tickets to start with, then gradually admits he hasn’t. But he never admits that he’ll get commission for everyone who signs up and deposits money. Or that it’s likely to cost each member much more than £1 to be able to enter the competition, after they’ve made minimum deposits.

But I don’t think he actually read the Terms and Conditions of the agreement he has with Virgin Games.

If you look at the Virgin Games website you can see those Ts&Cs, at http://www.virgingames.com/affiliates/Terms.aspx. Notably these sections (I’ve added my own emphasis for what I consider applies most to Oldham…)

You should not apply to our Affiliate Program if you do not agree with the following terms and conditions. If you have any queries about the content of this Agreement, please email us at affiliates@virgingames.com.

5. any unlawful behaviour or conduct.

7.4. We shall reject your application if:

4. your website is under construction;
5. your website is hosted in a jurisdiction where online gaming advertising is prohibited by law; or

In other words, Duncan Oldham should not have applied to this affiliate programme. So if you’ve time, please email the address above and warn Mr Branson’s lot that they’ve a fat copyright stealing liar promoting their product in a fairly misleading way, on his porn-ridden site full of threats towards anyone who disagrees with him. You get the idea. The more people who get in touch with them the quicker they’ll deal with him.

Richard Branson doing business with the charity thief that is Duncan Oldham? I somehow don’t think he’d like that.

This next one was funny too….

Posts: 18789 Now it’s funny you should say that

I’ve been asked to help with loads of football club websites in the past including Newcastle. Sadly when I told people this a few members of my ‘fan club’ on other sites tried to make a big deal out of this. I’ve tested the water and have an interest in a few live projects but it’s a big secret so don’t tell anyone

I’d love to see Ged back though but not at Newcastle as he deserves better.
– — — — — — — — —

So the story changes again. Dunk alternates constantly between admitting he had set up a Newcastle website and a Spurs website, and saying he only offered advice after “being approached for help”. He sometimes claims he had a site planned for, of all teams, Nottingham Forest! The truth is that he set up site for Spurs, and a site for Newcastle. Neither got many hits, and one of them was based on software he hadn’t paid for. He closed both down a year ago.

It was some time later that he applied for a licence from the Premier League to use photographs of Premier League football games on his site. He lied on his application. If you’ve time, can you ring the Premier League and tell them he doesn’t have numerous sites covering numerous football clubs? He only has the LFC site, and that means he should have got permission from LFC, not the Premier League. It’s LFC’s decision how much he should pay for the licence, not the Premier League’s, if his site only features LFC! He lied to the Premier League to get his licence.

Give them a call, tell them the truth, and mention to them that he also thinks the licence includes the actual fees for the use of each photo too. It doesn’t, and he uses those photos without paying for them. Copyright theft.

Shortly afterwards I noticed he had changed the page talking about the flights to Athens. This was a little after I’d had an email from Trading Standards saying they were looking into this offer. Perhaps he’d been warned about the credit card stuff.

Looks like one member doesn’t want to pay £30 for a complete pile of crap…

Just catching up on my email since my long holiday and have noticed i’m about 2 days away from my subscription ending. I am having second thoughts as whether to renew only because I am a little concerned at the value for money aspect. £30 is a alot of money (especially to a newly graduated unemployed lazy cnut like me).

Any new plans for this summer or up-coming seasons? I do like the fact that there’s loads of videos on here and I can easily catch up with stuff if I’m out the country etc.

Are other members having second thoughts whether to renew? No hidden agendas here Dunk, been around for a while here now just thought i’d weigh up my options if thats cool. If i am going i’ll just take an opportunity to thank everyone at Koptalk plus the excellent contributors for making this a top site

Posts: 18806 If you’re genuinely unemployed and a bit skint then we can help you. The site isn’t about squeezing money out of our members, it’s about ticking over.(My arse!) For less than 9p-a-day I know it’s worth it because of the amount of time we put in but I guess i’m going to say that \:\) (And we’re off again, starry-eyed Dunk actually believing people still fall for this crap)

There are plenty of other LFC sites on the web that are supported by donations or advertising, or they have a team (group of friends) that chip in to pay the bills. Sadly I’m on my own with the help of family and friends and I’ve chosen to have an optional membership and the site was free to all from 1998/99 until we switched to subs.(Was this during the dot com boom that made you those millions you turned down, or whatever it is you normally drone on about?)

Contrary to popular belief, that means we take less revenue than when we were open to all.(Are you still unwaged, or have you stopped claiming that now? It’s hard to say you’re unwaged when you spend so much on cars and gadgets, without drawing attention to the lack of proof Lauren ever got the money you’d collected for her.) If it was about money I would make the site open to all and rake it in on the ad revenue.(You normally claim there is no money in net ads any more. Like the S*n ones you ran, but not just those. So why’s that story changed again?) The reason I prefer it this way is that it helps keep out rival fans and other idiots. (You mean it makes it harder for anyone to spread the word about you. You prefer to keep them in your little concentration camp instead, where they can’t speak to each other without being watched!) Since we’ve gone members only we’re also online every minute of every day overseeing things.(He means he has NY drop-out Smoove logged on overnight, and 17-year-old UK college drop-out Katrina on during the day, with him and his dopey step-bro doing the rest of the shifts. Why? Because they need to swoop on suicide posts as quickly as possible, they can’t afford many more people to see the anger they’ve caused.)

Since going members only we have stepped up to the best hosting available in the country (but at a price). (Yes – we checked. After reading your claims of £600 per month I actually found out the true price. £97 per month. That’s over £500 less than you claimed. Mr Bullshit. £97 isn’t too bad, for a managed service aimed at those who don’t know what they’re doing.) It’s an invisible feature I guess because you guys won’t think about that kind of stuff. I like the security of a 5 minute response time when the site goes down and regular updates rather than waiting hours and hours for a support request to be answered, never mind dealt with, when the site is down.(As long as you put the support request in though Dunk – when you were away on your “jolly” to Barca with your members money, your site was down for a good few hours. Nobody told UKFast it was down. You’ve only got the most basic service they do. £97).

We’ve registered with the Premier League since going members only have and stumped up our licence fees and spent thousands of pounds getting you guys the best match photos without having to lift them for you.(See above – again, try and give the Premier League a call. Tell them Dunk’s licence was obtained by deception. And ask them if Dunk’s actually been paying the agencies for each photo.)

Maybe these things mean little but the point I’m trying to make I guess is that we don’t pocket revenue. (Ah – off we go again)We invest every single penny back into the site.(So how do you pay for food then fatty? You eat a lot of it. And your car? Don’t pretend it’s property, we know it’s not. How do you live? Benefits? You contradict yourself too much.) It would be easy to save on hosting, we could ditch the photos and open up the forums to non members but I like the way things are now. It generally attracts more sensible people.(Like wezo23?)

We’ve also given away loads of match tickets and have made many Reds happy as a result. Maybe we need to fix a comp so you win (You can’t get match tickets you said earlier? Another contradiction. You started to give them away as soon as you realised we were watching. And you do fix the competitions. Don’t you?)

(He’s still not finished…)I see it more of people supporting us if they like what we do rather than buying into something for the sake of it. Because at the end of the day I like to think of it as a family and I think that’s why thousands of members renew every year. But we can’t meet the needs of everyone.(THOUSANDS! I think not. In fact I know not. But “thousands” means at least two thousand, which would be sixty grand in membership fees. Where does it all go? Is it declared? Well for starters I would be surprised if he’d even had 100 new members in the last 12 months. And whatever he does get in doesn’t get declared anywhere. It’s all hidden away in PayPal accounts. (For now).)

At the end of the day we’re just ordinary fans, we’re not a big player, we don’t have the resources of the big boys but we give 110% and if that’s not good enough or if that doesn’t warrant support, there’s not much more we can do \:\) (Oh dear, dear me. Violin please.)

I’ve just paid for a site upgrade here which should happen soon. I also hope to have some new skins developed for people at work so the forums don’t stand out too much for them and fit in more with their work environment! (Paid for it? I should hope so, because you didn’t pay for it when you used it on your porn site. And you’ve also been looking at changing to the Exponent content management system, which is free open-source software. So don’t be trying to claim you paid for that if you do ever work out how to install it.)

We pay for a chat room, the podcast, the radio service, the SMS alerts (which cost us thousands of pounds every month or so), the match photos, the licences, the best hosting (bnest business host 3 years running I believe), 24/7 moderation, the best prizes… I don’t really know what else I could give. (He’s not mentioned the SMS alerts for a while. Those alerts that people get for a very short time before they all dry up. The ones that keep being reduced all the time. And if you’re now saying you pay for the moderation does that mean that you are all now getting a wage? Contradictions again.)

If people go on holiday they can let us know and we’ll call them at the hotel to let them know what’s happening at LFC or we can text them or fax them. If someone’s stuck on the tube and they need to know what’s happening at Anfield they can text Steve to ask and he’ll text back. If someone can’t get an LFC kit we’ll go to the club shop and buy what they want and send to them wherever they are in the world at cost, no profit…. it’s the small things that cost nothing that are probably welcomed the most. Oh yeh and our transfer deadline day updates are priceless (Has anyone ever had regular personalised updates on holiday? Can you get text messages out from the tube, considering it’s underground? Kits at cost? Do you add petrol money onto those costs for the journey from your Wallsend bunker to the club shop four hours’ drive away? And how about those special shirts you supply – you know the ones that you and Steve write on with black marker and claim Reds players signed them? How come you charge an extra 200 quid for those? Cost only? Bullshit.)

I hope you choose to stay but if you don’t, I wish you well(If he pays, great, if not – get stuffed. As many other members of “the family” found.)

And if you do go, and you don’t need to earn your “I’ve been banned by KopTalk badge” to parade on other sites after acting like a 2-year-old, I’ll even let you have one of my finest steak pies ;\) (That pie joke’s wearing thin as fast as you’re growing fat. And I thought you didn’t ban anyone anyway)

So half an hour in the afternoon, perhaps 15 minutes in the evening, and Dunk made that many mistakes. Dunk drew attention to the fact that there are sites outside the commune. Sites that attack him. And some members will now be using Google to find those sites. And more members will leave as they learn the truth about the Newcastle-season-ticket holder who has spent the last eight years conning Liverpool fans.

Well done Dunk – you market this site better than anyone these days!

Frequently Told Lies

A new gem!

I’ve not been around much of late for various reasons, but I’ve kept a brief eye on things. I’ve glanced at Koptalk from time-to-time and also glanced on here. Thanks for all the kind words I’ve had on here and in the emails I’ve actually managed to read. The offers of pints I hope I can take up one day, although I’d have to buy you one back of course!

I’ve not actually done much reading of my email. I’ve popped my head around the door of the gmail account two or three times this week but with something like 600 unread emails it’s a little daunting!

Thanks to everyone who’s helped to keep the blog going in recent weeks and months, most of all of course Rupert who’s done some excellent work and really kept the heat on.

Today I thought I’d have a little nosy at Koptalk. I went to the main site first, with the intention of clicking one of those misleading “members only” headlines so I could have a good nosy at that too.

But something caught my eye first. Dunk’s added an FAQ! FAQ, for those who didn’t know, stands for “Frequently Asked Questions”. In Dunk’s case you just know each FAQ will be answered with a FTL (Frequently Told Lie).

I had to have a read. I had to see if, for once, he’s told the truth. You never know, maybe he’s finally turned over a new leaf. He’s just been to the USA for a month (How did he pay for that? After all, he is unwaged or so he keeps telling us). Perhaps he saw how bad some of those US religious cults look and realised it was time to stop trying to convert people to his own version of a cult. Then again, maybe he picked up some new techniques from those cults.

So what did he say? Read on…

In the summer of 2006 we cleaned up our member’s community and cancelled the memberships of a small group of people. (First sentence, first untruth! Anyone who was a member of Koptalk on the basis of a previous promise of being allowed a lifetime membership, was kicked out. Pay up or piss off was the basic message.) New members were starting to feel intimidated by a small group of members who had been with the site for several years. (But that wasn’t the problem. If you paid you stayed. Plenty of those left behind were and are capable of intimidation, but the truth is that Dunk only wanted paying members on his site. Those who’d paid various amounts for lifetime membership, or had done various deeds in return for honorary membership were dumped. There was also a distinct possibility that Dunk thought he would get rid of us if he got rid of all his free members. He didn’t manage that – I still have access to the site and I’ve not paid a penny to him for many, many years.) It has always been our policy that a member who has been with the site for years is no more important than a member who joins today.(As long as you pay you are important. Sorry, as long as you pay and don’t ask difficult questions you are important.) We like everyone to be equal with no kind of favouritism. As a result of our decision to clean up our community a campaign was launched against KopTalk by those we ejected.(Another re-invention of history. When this blog started, just over a year ago, Dunk had both a free site and a pay site. It was a good few months after this blog was launched before he started his “clean up”. I suppose he had tried a bit of a clean-up early on, but that was done by banning people at random in an angry way because he couldn’t work out who we were. Time after time he thought he’d worked out who we were, only to find us posting away on here as ever. I started this blog, and was never banned from Koptalk. I started it to have a laugh at Dunk’s made-up-insider-information. He over-reacted and plotted his own downfall. Dunk “cleaned up” his community as a reaction to this blog!) On this page we want to try and answer some of their claims that you may have seen posted around the internet on the websites they set-up to target us. (We’ve set up this web-site, so why “websites” plural? To make it sound worse than it is? This one blog is all there is. For the first couple of weeks of its life the blog was hosted elsewhere, and I’ve experimented with other free hosting services, but this is the only website purely devoted to outing Duncan Oldham, the conman, liar and thief. Other than this site, we’ve been mentioned on just about every UK-based LFC website, INCLUDING THE OFFICIAL SITE! We are linked to from many LFC sites. Very few people disagree with what we are trying to achieve with this blog. We want everyone who is considering using Koptalk to know the truth about it before parting with money. We want everyone who’s already parted with their cash to know what they are helping to support. Most people who know the truth, or at least read this blog with an open mind, leave Koptalk on the spot, or at least make the decision that they’ll leave once they’ve used up their sub. Remember – read it with an open mind. When one of Oldham’s lies is pointed out, no matter how trivial, it’s usually easy enough to see there and then that it’s a lie, or untrue. In this intro to his FAQ he’s told a few lies already. He is incapable of honesty. He has to lie. And when he does, he trips himself up every time).

KOPTALK.COM

Q. Is it true that the owner of KopTalk is a fat Geordie who supports Newcastle?

A. It is true that the owner is fat but he like all of us here are Liverpool through and through. Dunk has supported the Reds since he was a young lad. The first game he attended was the Liverpool Everton FA Cup Final in 1986 when he was 11. He has a Liverbird tattoo on his chunky arm and he was married at the Anfield stadium in 1999. Scouse he is not, he’s a proud Yorkshireman and out-of-towner – maybe some Reds don’t like the fact that he’s an OOT and that he runs a Liverpool website? (Does this answer include any lies? He’s fat, and he’s proud that he’s fat, so that’s not a lie. Liverpool through and through? Well we’ve had it on good authority that he was a Leeds United fan as a child. He turned to Liverpool later. And later still he turned to Newcastle. More on that later. He’s not a Geordie, as many Geordies have been desperate for us to point out. He’s from Scarborough, where he’s well known for his scams, some of which started when he was working part-time in a chippy in the seaside town. And it’s probably because of that notoriety that he had to move to Wallsend near Newcastle, along with his mother who is also notorious in the town. The claim that he attended the FA Cup Final in 1986, at the age of 11, actually messes him up on one of his other lies. To justify himself when questioned in late 2005 about why he wore a S*n hat (as in the boycotted newspaper) in 1998 he claimed he wore it because he didn’t know about the boycott. He knew enough about us in 1986 to be able to get tickets for and go to the FA Cup Final. Three years later and that newspaper printed those lies, and that boycott began. He would have been 14 if what he says above is true. Yet he claimed that in 1998 he didn’t know about the boycott! (Even though we’ve shown proof on here that he knew full-well about the boycott in 1998 – because he spoke about it online). He’s a liar and his lies about The S*n are probably his most despicable ones. He buys the S*n (he admitted as much on his own “free” site last summer, before he closed it down. Tattoo on his arm? The only proof we’ve had of that was on his “Video Podcast” some time ago when he dressed with a tea-towel on his head, hiding himself from the camera before his recent bout of bravery. He flashed, very briefly, what looked like a hand-drawn (with marker pen) drawing of a squashed spider to the camera. But not until he’d started to roll up the wrong sleeve! He was married at Anfield in 1999. And again that event resulted later on in him tripping himself up with another lie. Last summer he claimed his real name wasn’t Duncan Oldham! He said it was a name he made up for the internet! But he’d published his wedding menu from Anfield on his site some years ago, which clearly showed his name as Duncan Oldham, getting married to Maria (Hartley). Dunk’s lies always trip him up. Why would he lie about his real name not being Duncan Oldham? He told his trusting customers that Duncan Oldham wasn’t his real name – why? Then there’s the statement on here: “maybe some Reds don’t like the fact that he’s an OOT and that he runs a Liverpool website”. It’s an attempt by Duncan Oldham to try and convince OOTers that this blog is just here to attack an OOTer. But nobody knows whether I’m an OOTer or not! (Well I do, and those who know me do, but I don’t think I’ve ever said where I’m from on here). I’ve got LFC-supporting friends who are scouse, LFC-supporting friends who are from elsewhere in England, or elsewhere in the world. I’m quite strongly minded that LFC should be a club that welcomes fans from any part of the world, scouse or not, English or not, and I’ve had a couple of arguments on other forums about this in the past (not as “Insider” though). I’m not comfortable with some of the hijacking that’s been done on the RTK campaign by some anti-OOTers, because RTK is not an anti-OOT campaign. And I think that point of view is reflected throughout this blog, because one thing Duncan Oldham likes to take advantage of is that any members who live outside of the UK are hard-pressed to take action against him when they’ve been scammed. Most of his fake merchandise is sold to overseas Reds who just can’t easily take action against him. And an OOTer running an LFC website? Not a problem at all, although those websites run from outside Liverpool that I enjoy using don’t actually try and claim that they are run from Liverpool. Duncan Oldham has lied many times about living in Liverpool, about his site being based in Liverpool. Last summer he claimed he had done a deal to buy a house overlooking Melwood, and was using it free-of-charge until the sale went through. He claimed that he was negotiating with Chris Waddle to buy his house overlooking Melwood! That was a lie, and very odd one too.)

Q. I read he has a Newcastle United ticket season?

A. Dunk has been a Liverpool FC season ticket holder for around 10 years. The only connection he has with Newcastle is that he has family (who moved there) and property investments in that region. When KopTalk HQ moved to the north east Dunk bought a couple of season tickets to Newcastle for his son who would have been around 5 at the time. This enabled someone to take the lad to see some footy. Usually Steve was dragged into doing this or Dunk’s daughter but guess who took Robbie when the Reds were playing there? Dunk posted in one of his editorials about taking his lad to see a few games, it was no secret but those with a grudge like to try and make a big deal about it. Robbie is 7 today and he’s a big Red. He loves his football but now he’s a little older he’s happy to travel to Anfield to see the Reds play. His Newcastle ticket won’t be renewed for the 2007-08 season – thank God! (Dunk does have a season ticket for Anfield. In fact he has two. One’s in his (estranged) wife’s name. He renewed them for this season. They are in the Lower Centenary, I have the full details of which row they are in and which seats they are. Without giving too much away, the seats are a number between 190 and 210. The row number is between 3 and 7. If you sit anywhere near that and want to know Dunk’s actual season ticket numbers let me know by email and I’ll send you the details. Because Dunk doesn’t go to league games at Anfield any more. He obviously sells his tickets, like he sold his FA Cup final tickets last season for £1600. He’s a tout basically, because I doubt very much he has sold his season tickets at face value. I feel like publishing the full details of his seat numbers on here, but that might hurt the person he’s touted the tickets to. Perhaps I will forward the details on during the close season, so the tickets will be invalid for next season. Dunk doesn’t go to the game any more, but he makes a profit on his season tickets. That’s what LFC is to Dunk – a money-making machine and nothing more. His Newcastle season tickets were probably bought for similar reasons. Newcastle often sell out their fixtures, so he can no doubt make a bit of a profit on his tickets from time to time. When Liverpool play there, or at least for the past two seasons, Dunk is there along with his son and his daughter. So has he got THREE season tickets at St James’s? His son, who he’s named above, was pictured on Dunk’s site wearing a Newcastle shirt at the start of this season. Maybe he’s as fickle as his father when it comes to choosing his favourite team if he’s already changed his allegiances. And has his son been to Anfield? It seems doubtful, given that Dunk sells his season ticket and either sells (at tout prices) or gives away (in illegal competitions) any cup tickets he gets for Anfield. No renewal on the season ticket for 2007-08? Last summer Dunk claimed he’d had to lend money off his mam to pay for his season ticket for Anfield (the one he doesn’t actually use). If that’s the case, then he’d have surely had to borrow off her to buy the Newcastle one too. The recent spending spree they’ve had (even though they are unwaged) has surely made sure he can’t afford the Newcastle ticket this time around.)

Q. But doesn’t he run other club football sites?

A. KopTalk started as a hobby and grew into a huge site. During the years Dunk was approached many times by companies keen to tap into that success and help them establish other websites. He refused to sell KopTalk in 2000 and even rejected an offer of £1.3million for a 10% stake at the time. Again Dunk has always been open about his connection to such projects and revealed he had provided advice for other projects but wouldn’t be directly involved as KopTalk was his baby. Today Dunk has advised with the creation of half a dozen successful websites of various sporting themes. Not one of these sites is associated to any other football clubs here in England. Several years ago two club sites catering for Spurs and Newcastle fans were created purely to test the water. They were closed, rebranded and relaunched in 2006 but nobody from KopTalk is involved with such projects including Dunk himself. To clarify, Dunk has no inpurt or ownership of any other football sites other than KopTalk (and the forthcoming kopfootball.com) but only because he doesn’t have the time, interest or effort, not because he should keep anyone else happy. (Do a whois lookup on spursarmy.com, upthetoon.com, chavgames.com, caboodlenetwork.com and the other variations such as .co.uk and so on. You’ll find those sites were all registered by Duncan Oldham either in his own name, in Steve’s name or in his schoolgirl daughter’s name. Koptalk got off the ground thanks to the hard work of Dunk’s co-owner at the beginning. He soon left Koptalk. Dunk kept it going with his lies and scams, his broken promises and betrayals. He never rejected an offer of £1.3million for a 10% stake. He did hand over control of the domain name for a much, much smaller amount at one point, but in return for some easy money he spent all of his time promoting another domain he’d set up, an early version of his “insider” site. The victims that time were “Footy Mad”. In fact if you search around on “Footy Mad” you can see many of Dunk’s lies and made-up or stolen stories. And his begging-for-sympathy stories after he’d had to put one of his greyhounds down for not being fast enough. He was the sole person responsible for the Spurs and the Newcastle sites I’ve just mentioned. He even claimed last summer that Spurs Army was going to get back off the ground soon, but first of all he had arranged for Steve to go down to London to interview some people to work on it! So if he’s done nothing more than advise, what the hell is Steve doing interviewing people to take over the running of those sites? The truth is, Dunk created those sites. Early readers of the blog will remember how Dunk had actually copied the template for his Koptalk.com site to use on his SpursArmy.com site, but had made errors in various places so that parts of the page on the Spurs site loaded in Liverpool red, and he even had a blue Liverbird as one of the logos on Spurs site! The site disappeared when FusionBB were tipped off that he’d used one licence for their software on at least three sites. Is Dunk ashamed that he ran sites for fans of other clubs? Why lies about it? And where is the proof that he’s “advised” on other sporting sites? This bit made me laugh out loud “Dunk has no inpurt or ownership of any other football sites other than KopTalk (and the forthcoming kopfootball.com) but only because he doesn’t have the time, interest or effort, not because he should keep anyone else happy.” Dunk – read that answer again and try and clear up your contradictions. I’m not bothered that you run sites for other clubs, or that you used to do so. That’s your choice. What does bother me was when Michael Owen was about to sign for Newcastle and you pretended to be “Barry” from UpTheToon.com and thanked yourself (Dunk) for being so kind as to share information with yourself. Why not be honest? Why not be straight?)

Q. Someone on another LFC forum said Dunk’s a control freak and everyone has to agree with his views?

A. Was this person a former member who had been given a size ten up his rear-end for abusing others on one of our formers? (Who’s this former member that abused others on one of your formers? What’s a former?) Numerous former members have commented on how things are at Koptalk, how threads are deleted and locked on the whim of the fat controller and his dribbling helpers.) We have a strict moderation policy called the AUP (Acceptable Use Policy). (And how we’ve laughed at that Gestapo-style directive in the past. If you’ve got time find it and laugh, it’s hilarious without meaning to be.) This can be found on our support site at www.koptalk. info Basically providing you are polite and non abusive to other members and the moderators you’re fine. (And don’t question, no matter how politely, anything that Dunk does or says. Seriously – do so and you’ll be banned). Alternative debates are fine and nobody on the internet likes to get a few biting about LFC topics than Dunk but it is nonsense to suggest that you can only say a certain thing about the club. (Saying things about the club aren’t the problem. Saying things about Koptalk are the problem). If anything KopTalk urges you to be an individual and support the Reds how you want to, not how others want you to. Our forums are moderated every minute of every day by KopTalk staff and Dunk rarely gets involved in the moderation.(That’s because Dunk spends most of his time pretending to be someone else. So you’ll see a comment, sounding exactly like Dunk, but attributed to Steve, Katie, Emma (who never actually joined herself after her true identity was revealed on here), Jordy (who doesn’t exist) or even Dunk’s daughter. Dunk moderates, but much of the time he’s pretending to be somewhere else because he’s in hiding from one person or other). If you are a mature Red and you don’t go around offending others, you have nothing to worry about.(As long as you enjoy innuendo-riddled conversations with 17-year-old girls like Katrina/Katie on this “mature” forum.) People ban themselves on KopTalk. (Dunk’s catchprase, apart from “Blog That!”) We enjoy banter and we like to see people getting stuck into each other about their different club views. But we expect our members to respect each other. From time to time people clash but they usually kiss and make up. If they don’t and they continue with some kind of vendetta against another member, we bin them, end of. (Anyone else hate the phrase “end of”? It usually comes from people who aren’t able to explain there reasons for doing or saying something. It’s a bit like “because it is”.)

Q. KopTalk doesn’t campaign enough for fan issues?

A. This is a tricky one because behind the scenes we assist many fans with various LFC issues. But we won’t force any of our members or casual visitors to do a certain thing. We believe it’s about the choice of the individual whether they do or don’t do a certain thing. How someone chooses to support the club is not our business. We want our members and casual visitors to enjoy what free time they have online with us and not to get pressurised into doing something just because in the eyes of someone else, they’re not worthy enough unless they do. We will support fan issues if those behind certain campaigns run certain things by us. There are plenty of outlets on the net were people can get involved with various campaigns and we’re happy to point you in the right directions.

(Ha ha! Behind the scenes you assist many fans with various LFC issues? What like? You’re a liar Dunk, you clearly do no such thing. You’ve no contacts at the club, you’ve no clout with any supporters groups (most know who you are and condemn you completely) – what can you do? What about the Michael Shields campaign? Did you ever pay up, in full, the money you claimed you were going to pay? Remember, the amount you kept boasting about. You did it to justify the fact that you took a domain name related to Michael and pointed it to a part of your own site that included those lucrative pop-up ads you’re so fond of. You bought a domain name and created a special section on your forum to point it at, to make money from Michael Shields. Only when you got some stick for it did you PLEDGE some money. Did you pay it all up? As for campaigns, you jumped quite heavily onto the RTK bandwagon. So another contradiction isn’t it? You suddenly support RTK when they produce such a memorable six minutes as they did at the Arsenal FA Cup game. So why publicise that, yet disregard the S*n boycott? In fact your next question covers the S*n boycott.

Q. Is it true that KopTalk supports The Sun newspaper?

A. This is a silly one. That’s how low some rivals have to swoop to try and earn brownie points. To use the innocent lives of 96 Reds to try and target us disgusts us but doesn’t surprise us. As stated above if people want to buy The Sun newspaper then that’s their right. We wouldn’t encourage them to do so for many reasons but we have no right to tell people what they will or won’t do. We’d prefer it if they didn’t buy the rag and we’d encourage them to boycott it but that’s as far as it goes.

(Silly? Despicable more like. Brownie Points? Disgust actually. The S*n is boycotted because they tried to turn the blame for Hillsborough back onto the Liverpool supporters. Worse than that, they made claims that our supports pissed on the dead bodies of those fans who lost their lives. They made claims they we pickpocketed from them. Do some research if you’ve never seen what the S*n wrote. They’ve never apologised, apart from a half-baked attempt after Wayne Rooney had sold his soul to them. The editor at the time, Kelvin MacKenzie admits he knew that they were lies that he allowed to be printed, but he really does not care. What The S*n and Kelvin MacKenzie did played a big part in our 96 lost ones not getting the justice they deserved. That’s why that Arsenal game in January started off with six minutes of singing for justice for the 96, and why the Kop held up a mosaic for those six minutes asking for “The Truth”. Not everyone knows about the boycott of The S*n, and it’s not unusual to see a naive forum member on one LFC forum or other quote from that rag. Usually the poster is told about the boycott (sometimes politely) and the poster apologises. Later on a moderator removes the offending quotes. Nobody questions the boycott. Nobody feels it needs to be debated, perhaps with the exception of a debate over what it would take for the boycott to be lifted. Everyone agrees though – the S*n is boycotted and it will stay boycotted until the families say otherwise.

Except on Koptalk. On Koptalk last summer I saw an exchange where Dunk’s moderators attacked someone who pointed out that quotes from the S*n weren’t welcome. Then Dunk came along and locked the thread, claiming his readers don’t want to be bothered with serious things like that. As the summer went on Dunk’s true feelings about The S*n became more and more apparent. He told more lies about why he wore a hat promoting The S*n at France ’98, even though he’d known about the boycott at the time he was wearing it. And then I spotted a pattern. Some of his news stories linking Liverpool with players from other clubs didn’t appear anywhere else on News Now. Love it or hate it, News Now have long since stopped including stories from The S*n on their LFC page. So how did Dunk get these stories, some of which included quotes from players or managers? Google News helped me to find the answer. Stick a player’s name and part of his quote onto Google News and you’d find the story’s source. The S*n. Google News don’t actually boycott The S*n, so a search on Google News will include their stories in the results. Often there would only be one result with those quotes. Usually if it appeared anywhere else in Google News other than the S*n it was on some newspaper from overseas many hours later. But Dunk had taken the story and used it as his own on Koptalk. And with Google News a relatively new service, most Reds hadn’t a clue that Dunk had got his story from The S*n. Soon Dunk’s story would be number one on News Now – well it was the only story on there linking us to player “X”. Dunk’s now banned from News Now. For the second and hopefully final time. Dunk tried hard to defend himself over this. He was asked questions by his members. One day he claimed that Liverpool players spoke to The S*n. (The BBC are notorious for taking comments given by a player to a press conference and following them with “told the Sun”.) LFC PLAYERS DO NOT TALK TO THE SUN. Dunk tried to make out this wasn’t true. “Rushian”, well known on many Liverpool websites, pointed out to Dunk that he was wrong to say Reds players spoke to the S*n. Dunk again had a go, claiming Rushian was wrong, “and you know it”. The thread was locked. Then Dunk claimed that Peter Crouch had been speaking to the S*n. And what’s more, Dunk said he had the tape to prove it. And, like any true Liverpool supporter would he claimed he was going to use that tape to end Crouch’s career whenever he felt like it! LFC Fan? Sure.

Shortly afterwards Dunk admitted to buying the S*n. In fact he claimed he had it delivered every day, along with some other papers, but he claimed he bribed or threatened the paper boy to give it to him free of charge. Then he filmed him and Steve burning that day’s edition. And then he said he had to buy another copy so that he could type out the story that he’d been so outraged over.

Using the 96 to have a go at Dunk? Days before the anniversary I think his claims are insensitive to say the least, but Dunk took advantage of that boycott to make himself some money. As for supporting the S*n, well he refused to allow any discussion on the matter on his sites and actually seemed to be trying to persuade his members to soften their stance towards the rag. It’s an ideal paper for him, he hates the fact that he can’t talk openly about something he read in there that morning. The other way he supports it is that he copies directly from the BBC their round-up of that morning’s newspaper football stories. He never removes the references to the S*n, claiming outrageously that he CAN’T remove those references (even though it’s a cut and paste job). By removing any threads that inform his members about the boycott and the reasons for it, then printing quotes from the BBC talking about stories in it, he is effectively encouraging his members to satisfy their curiosity by going out and buying a copy of it. If that sells one extra paper for the S*n, then I consider that to be supporting it. Koptalk supports The S*n. )

Q. Fair enough but what about running ads for The Sun newspaper on KopTalk?

A. KopTalk has never taken a single penny from The Sun for advertising. Our advertising is organised and displayed by advertising agencies with the exception of Blue Square and Amazon. Every month the agencies add new campaigns. None of the agencies we use now or we have used in the past notify you of what ads will be run. If an offending ad is displayed, once notified we can disable the particular ad but only once we are aware. With Google Ads you can block/ban certain websites (advertisements) before they appear so obviously we have banned the website of The Sun newspaper. From time to time offending ads can appear, not just from The Sun but also from other advertisers that are maybe not appropriate. Any LFC site signed up to the same advertising agencies would have the same problem. In the entire history of KopTalk we have had to disable adverts for The Sun newspaper twice. The minute we’re made aware of such ads we disable them for obvious reasons. If anyone out there thinks we’d actually knowingly run ads for The Sun they must either be very naive or very, very stupid.

The last time S*n ads appeared on Koptalk, Duncan Oldham played a game of pretending he didn’t know where they were. It’s well documented on here how he played this game, not taking any action until his members had got pretty irate. At the time there were only three possible sources for ads on his site to appear in such a way. Instead of going into the control panel for each one of those three he played his game. He did it to prove a point, to attract attention. As he admits himself above, he hates being told what to do, and he no doubt had a great thrill to see how he’d upset so many Reds. He made no apology for those ads appearing. He instead had a go at those who’d complained. Liverpool fan?)

Q. Loads of Liverpool sites are free, why isn’t KopTalk?

A. Our site was free for years but when Dunk wanted to scale it down to concentrate on his kids, he wanted to concentrate on a more limited readership base. A membership helps deter rival fans and internet trolls. Rather than have the site plastered in adverts, we chose to generate revenue by way of an optional membership fee. Many fans website accepts donations and give little back, we don’t ask for donations, we offer an optional membership to our website with no advertising, free worldwide LFC alerts by SMS and much more. We also ensure that a member of the KopTalk team is online every minute of every day to ensure the forums are kept safe and sensible for our members. All for less than 9p-a-day! And if you disagree with the option of joining, you don’t join. That way everyone’s happy!

(Dunk wanted to concentrate on his kids? He doesn’t see his kids except at weekends and school holidays, and he’s not seen them for a month if he’s actually been in the US for a month. His wife has custody of them. And she wasn’t in the states with him either, despite his tales that she was. He scrapped his free sites because he couldn’t keep on top of the hundreds of outraged Reds that were trying to spread the news about him. Especially when most of his moderators upped sticks and left in disgust. He scrapped his free site. Then he ditched his members on the paysite who’d paid for a lifetime membership. He figured if he restricted his membership to just those who were paying £30 a year he’d get rid of people wanting to spread the word about him. It didn’t work though, there are still many of his members who are fully aware of his scams and have stopped posting, just waiting for the day before their membership runs out so they can make one last, significant post. If Dunk could find a way of bringing back his free sites with the same levels of hits he used to get he would bring them back – as long as nobody could spread the word about him. That’s why his expensive site (£30 a year more than any other “fan” site) doesn’t have a Private Message facility. That’s why you can’t view a fellow member’s profile. He is frightened to death of his members reading this blog with an open mind, away from his control. The fear of a “suicide post” is the reason he has Smoove logging on overnight and Katrina logged on all day. )

Q. Is it true that Dunk has a disabled cousin and ‘scammed’ tens of thousands of pounds from her through fundraising?

A. If you’re a complete loon, yes! Not satisifed with using Hillsborough to try and discredit the site, our former (banned) members and the sites that choose to rival us, try to claim that Dunk would target a family member and profit from her paralysis. Complete nonsense as usual. At first they said she didn’t exist, then she wasn’t really disabled.. if it wasn’t so sad you’d laugh! Then when she came on the site’s podcast to silence these idiots they said she was an actress. Remember, if you ever see such claims, ask them to report them to the police. It’s one thing targeting Dunk and the site but to stoop so low to target a young Red is another thing.

(This one hit Dunk hard. His cousin, Lauren, genuinely is disabled. She’s very unlucky to say the least. I don’t fully remember the start of Dunk’s campaign to raise funds for her, but it all began with the news she’d been hit with the bad news that she was paralysed. Dunk started to raise money from his members to pay money to her parents to pay their mortgage and so on. People were donating big money, sometimes as standing orders. Later on Dunk started a website for Lauren. It consisted mainly of plugs for Koptalk, but included details of how members could donate to her. Cheques were to be made payable to Dunk’s mum, not Lauren’s mum. Dunk used his own PayPal address for online donations “for Lauren”. He sold footballs that were signed – he claimed falsely – by Liverpool players, “for Lauren”, at over £100 a time. He sold numerous fake shirts for at least £200 a time. He sold cup tickets (including FA Cup final tickets at £1600) “for Lauren”. He collected well over a thousand pounds in one day from Paddy Power, including a £300 donation “For Lauren”. In the early days of the appeal some people donated goods rather than money, so Lauren got a laptop for example. But later on it was always money. Dunk made a big fuss on his site about how he wanted to raise money for a special hand-powered bike for Lauren. The balls and the Cup final tickets alone would have paid for that. Except it never appeared. There was never a word from Lauren thanking everyone for the money. And how it must have added up. Except we never saw how it added up. Dunk’s very public appeal was never publicly accounted for. He never mentioned how much was raised and how it was used. If it was all used legitimately it would have been extremely easy for Dunk to show how it had been used. He didn’t though. I’ve not said Lauren doesn’t exist or that she wasn’t disabled – her plight was reported in the press at the time it happened. I’ve not heard the podcast she is supposed to have appeared on. If it was her, did Dunk get her to explain how she’d used the thousands of pounds she’d received from money collected by Dunk between March and May last year? I doubt she did, but I’m prepared to be corrected. And if I’ve time I’ll go back to the police and chase them up on this. I had to stop my communications with them for personal reasons a couple of months back, but perhaps I’ll have time to go back to it soon. Anyone else with time on their hands should contact North Yorks police and ask them to investigate. It’s what Dunk wants! If Lauren got the money off Dunk and spent it all on booze and fags then that’s her choice and I’d not condemn her for it. Targetting Lauren? No, we’re asking Dunk to prove that he handed over that substantial amount of money to his disabled cousin. And it’s not hard to prove it if he did.)

Q. I read that KopTalk sells dodgy goods?

A. We don’t sell anything. We have tried to run a shop in the past but we really didn’t have much success. We could make a lot of money if we wanted to but we simply don’t have the time as we found out. Out of every 1000 orders maybe 2 or 3 items go missing and a further 2 or 3 get damaged in transit. It just wasn’t worth upsetting a member who has been with us say for 4 years because a picture he wanted turned up smashed. It was either a shop or the site. Because of our visits to Melwood we can obtain signed balls, signed shirts etc but if a player’s in a rush a signature on one shirt could be so much different to that when the same player has time to stretch the shirt and sign it when he’s not under pressure and when half a dozen kids are not trying to get a bit of him. Then you’d get one doubter saying this doesn’t match my shirt from last year and so on. Basically we now just keep things for ourselves or our own competitions.

(Dunk had a shop until we started to shop him. All of a sudden his Champions League Balls and Signed Shirts disappeared. Search the blog for the photos of the ball he sent to an Irish member. Look at the signatures, very very poor fakes. He signed them himself, or got Steve to do it. Steve’s name appeared on the certificate of authenticity, at a time when he was 16, maybe just 15. He refused to offer a refund. One member complained repeatedly that he’d not been sent the promised certificate of authenticity. Dunk said he would only send it out if the member first of all sent the ball back at his own expense, from Ireland, so Dunk could check it! He’s a liar and a conman. And he knows he is. What he did in selling those fake balls is classed as fraud, and the poor signatures have nothing to do with a player being under pressure. Dunk won’t admit to this scam of course, but look at those pictures of that ball and you’ll see he’s got no grounds to deny he’s faked those balls. An LFC Fan? Selling fake goods to “fellow Reds”?)

Q. I also read that once a member has signed up, you can debit their card again without their permission?

A. That’s rubbish. At no time do we ever know your credit or debit card number. If you sign up via PayPal your membership runs for one year. At no time during that year could we ever bill you again. It’s impossible and PayPal can confirm this. At renewal time your sub will autorenew if that is set up on your own PayPal account. There’s much more about this on our support site at www.koptalk.info

(It’s not rubbish. When Koptalk take your money by Pay Pal they do it using an option which will take an identical amount out one year later. But 11 months later Koptalk will send you reminder that you need to renew your membership, and ask you to pay there and then by Pay Pal. One month later your auto-renewal also goes out. Koptalk know this happens, but don’t tell you. They just pocket the money. If you try and ask for it back you often have to send numerous “support tickets” in before they will pay up. In fact Pay Pal have started to act directly and just pay the subscribers back. They are starting to get wise to Duncan Oldham. Even members who were banned six months earlier find themselves being billed, and Dunk won’t refund their money. Is that the actions of somebody honest? No, it’s the actions of a conman.)

Q. KopTalk has no official sources?

A. That’s right we have no official sources at all but we do have sources throughout the club at various management levels. We have no official relationship with the club and would never want one. We work for our members, the fans, and are not puppets for the likes of Ian Cotton in the press office. KopTalk is rare in that we refuse to toe-the-line on club matters where as some LFC websites will do what they can to have some kind of relationship. We’re not bothered about receiving a club Christmas card, we report the positive and the negative stuff and that will never change. Past and present contributors to the site includes the likes of Barry Venison, Rob Jones, Tommy Smth MBE, Ian St John, Jan Molby, Peter Thompson, Danny Murphy, Steve McManaman and many, many more. We have numerous relationships throughout the club and are in regular contact with players from the past and the present.

(No, the question should be, “Koptalk have no sources at Anfield, Melwood or the Academy?” Careful wording of that question doesn’t excuse you from answering the real question Dunk. You have no offical access to the club, at least you finally admit that. But you don’t have any unofficial access either. You are lying by saying you have “sources throughout the club”. The club hate you, to be frank, because you’re a parasite who reflects badly on our club’s name. In fact it seems you’ve now admitted that your recent visits to the States were far from being at the invitation of our new owners. Surely if they’d invited you they’d be official contacts? So what does that tell us? Lie after lie after lie. You were in Tom Hicks’ office, for a couple of minutes, which in itself is quite an achievement. But it was only for a couple of minutes, not the hour you’ve claimed. And you were warned off. Your hatred of Ian Cotton is unhealthy. As is your hatred of Chris Bascombe. And in that list of “past and present” contributors, how many of those are actually “present” contributors? And why did they all stop contributing? And not all of them ever did contribute did they? Did the ones who left do so because you wouldn’t pay them what you’d promised you would? Or did they realise what they were unwittingly becoming a part of? And Danny Murphy – you used to claim he was your Anfield Mole and your mate. Then when he left Anfield you didn’t even know it had happened! In fact you tried to make out it wasn’t true if I’m not mistaken! Another LFC website broke the news, thanks to their genuine contacts at the club. And your “mate” didn’t even tell you.

Last summer Dunk also claimed to be having a meeting with Rick Parry which he’d have when he could fit Rick Parry in. Dunk claimed he had something Parry wanted! He later admitted he doesn’t actually meet Rick Parry on a regular basis and in fact had never actually met him. He also went quiet on his previous claims that he was mates with Steven Gerrard!)

Q. Dunk’s writing a book called ‘Anfield Exposed’ but it’s never appeared why is that?

A. Simple. Just a lack of time. Several years ago Dunk announced his intention to write a book about the site. Interested people could place a pre-order deposit of £5 if they wanted to grab a copy when published. The working title was ‘Anfield Exposed’ but a more appropriate name would be given at publication. It’s not about exposing LFC in anyway and there isn’t any kind of negativity towards the club. Why would one of the biggest Reds in the world attack the club he loves? A publication date was never set and it was hoped to be published this season but again, time has been an issue. Also because of the campaign against the site since last year, there are fears that the book could be too revealing about key matters at Anfield. Not only that but since last summer various members of Dunk’s family have been targeted in a not so nice way. People with no connection to the site have been targeted at work simpy because they are related to Dunk. All of this just because one or two saddos cannot accept the fact that KopTalk is a success. The fact that Dunks own kids and family members have been targeted is a concern and whether or not we’ll go ahead with the book we’ll have to wait and see. Anyone who has placed a pre-order deposit several years back can at any time request a refund in full. It’d be a shame not to share this book with so many people but family has to come first.

(So once again, a month from his latest deadline, Dunk finds an excuse not to publish the book that he claimed was already finished last year. He changes this story all the time, even blaming an exploding laptop one time for the delay. The book was due out for the start of this season, then for the end of last year, then for the end of this season. And they are just the moving dates for his book since this blog started. He says “there isn’t any kind of negativity towards the club”! Well have a look back in time to his website promoting his book: The archive of anfieldexposed.con shows him promising all those about to part with the £5 deposit for a book that doesn’t exist that they’ll be able to read about, “The VIP apology from Anfield when a certain individual was trapped by the editor following a planned attack on the site” or “The CCTV footage of one of Anfield’s biggest stars that is locked away in a vault in the city. The media know it exists and offers of £50,000 have so far been rejected!” Not negative towards the club? An LFC fan? And again those claims about his family and kids being “targetted”! Meanwhile over on his cyber-squatted kopfootball domain he pretends his teenage schoolgirl daughter is the figurehead for his awful-looking site on the new stadium! It’s time someone warned the child protection people about Mr Oldham and the way he exploits his kids.)

FINAL WORD

Every day of the week new Reds join our website. We consider them to be members of our family and we will do all we can to make them happy. You can’t keep everyone happy but we try to if they come to us. We will do everything possible to make someone happy. We listen and we care and that’s why every year thousands of our members renew.

(Every day? Not what I’ve heard, far from it. You listen? Well listen to this – answer us some questions with honesty for once. Own up, if you’ve got the guts to.)

The internet is a scary place and for some reason some people want to rival us. We’re no angels but in all the years the site has been online we’ve never had any major problems.

(Dunk is quite obsessed with this “rival” idea. Look at any LFC website and you’ll see complimentary words about other LFC websites. You won’t see a complimentary word about Koptalk though, quite the opposite. And you can’t mention other LFC websites on Koptalk. Dunk is frightened you’ll jump ship. He sees the other sites as rivals, yet all the other sites see each other as part of one big net community.)

Anyone that takes a pop is usually connected to another LFC website or they’ve been booted off either our former free forums or our existing members only forums. Sometimes it’s simply just a Red who has no connection to us but wants to be loyal to the particular site they use. (No Dunk, most people who’ve been banned by you have been banned for mentioning this blog. Nobody gets banned for any other reason other than mentioning this blog or the concerns of this blog. People who take a pop take one because they’ve been double-charged by you and couldn’t get a refund, or got banned for asking where their book was. People who have a pop at you know about you and they speak the truth. Face up to it, the vast majority of Reds who’ve heard of you hate you for what you’ve done to our club and our fans. Your mam must be proud of you.)

At the end of the day there’s a lot of childish nonsense around the web. We’re happy that thousands of members enjoy our site and come back year after year.
(Thousands? You’ve only got “hundreds” left now, and most of those are lurking until their memberships run out. The game’s all but over, no matter how hard you try.)

Our site is aimed at mature Reds, we try to be different than the others. We don’t care if you’re from Liverpool or Libya or whether you attend every game that involves the Reds or whether you’ve never been able to get to Anfield. If you’ve got Red in your heart that’s all that matters. (No – all that matters is that they have to be in possession of a credit or debit card and have to be willing to take all your lies as truth. If either of those isn’t there you don’t want them.)

If you can’t make your own mind up in life and are thinking of not joining because you’ve seen a site taking a pop at us, we kind of understand, but maybe you’re not the sort of member we’re looking for. We don’t want people who aren’t intelligent enough to differentiate between a genuine moan and a direct attempt to discredit our site simply because of our success and because we don’t have time for fools.
(Good move Dunk. “If you are so thick that you believe a site run on a completely voluntary basis over a site that makes enough money for its unwaged owner that he can travel around the states in a party of four for four weeks then you aren’t welcome! No we didn’t steal money from Lauren, but we’re spending a hell of a lot on this holiday, and this gadget-filled van (did that ever materialise?) even though we’ve not got only a couple of hundred members. Obviously it’s still a lot of money you can make from even a few members, but £30 each time 300 is only nine grand. And you claim your web hosting costs 1200 quid a month. And you claim you’ve got permission to use all of those photographs on your site from the Premier League, even though you’d have to get permission from Anfield as well as the Premier League and then you’d have to pay a huge sum for the licence. And quite a large sum for each photograph too. Your little attempt at psychology is only going to attract fools isn’t it? Which is what you need, because without fools you’ll struggle to keep your myths alive.)

We have members from all races, backgrounds and ages. Sign-up and if you don’t like our website, why not email the man himself via dunk2007koptalk.com and tell him.
(Email him then. Ask him some questions. See if he’ll reply. Because from what I can gather, he won’t reply to anyone who asks even a slightly difficult question. All you get is an auto-responder where he claims other people filter his emails before he sees them! As if he’d trust Katrina to read his mail first, especially if most of it contains stuff that might make her finally see that Dunk did rip her mate Lauren off after all.

Keep an eye on our existing member feedback, they’re the only people you should pay any attention to. Don’t listen to us, our rejects or our rivals, listen to what our existing members think.
(How many of those “existing members” a) are still existing and b) exist? )
KopTalk doesn’t rival anyone, they just want to rival us and we know why…
(Dunk, again, shows his obsession with the word “rival”. He’s not afraid of the competition at all is he? And one last point on this update that I admit is probably too long: This blog is not making money. This blog is not an LFC website. This blog is here purely to educate LFC fans and others about Duncan Oldham and his many scams. As soon as Dunk goes then so will this blog. As soon as Dunk finds another club or another sport to scam, the blog will be locked. As soon as Dunk gets what he deserves after his years of bullying, the blog will no longer be needed. )

Keep reading, keep spreading the word, keep on Dunk’s back. There can’t be too many left now that don’t know the truth about him.

Fake Red shows Reds ignorance, hints at Leeds love

Compared to the idiocy of a so-called Liverpool site (Koptalk) taking money – knowingly – from adverts for The S*n, this post will probably come across as quite trivial. It’s just a few snippets of recent days at Koptalk that I’ve been gathering.

Starting off we’ve got one of those brilliant unintended comedy moments that Duncan Oldham provides us with. Earlier this week someone who works for the Mirror mistakenly reported that Liverpool ‘keeper Jose Reina had only months left to run on his contract. Clearly a huge mistake from a journalist who’d heard half a story and tried to guess how to fill in the gaps. Liverpool’s reserve ‘keeper Jerzy Dudek is out of contract at the end of the season, and this is where the confusion came from.

The reason that we had some comedy on the back of this journalist’s error is because Duncan Oldham doesn’t know as much as he’d like to claim about LFC. Rather than admit he doesn’t know, he’s got to disguise this. But it was killing him not knowing if Reina was about to be let go. So, he dusted off one of his aliases, “NJRED”. This particular alias was the one Oldham used when posting links to football streams or clips of goals. It was the alias he used in his pathetic and funny attempts at pretending that he wasn’t actively posting the links to those breaches of copyright. We saw right through it, and after a brief time using the alias “Mohan” to post links to the streams he started using his own name. He’s not got any links on to today’s match by the way.

So here, pretending to be “NJRED”, is Dunk asking his members to tell him what they pay him to tell them…

Think he’s on a 4 year contract and he’s only done a year and a bit. He did say at the time that he intended to stay for 3 or 4 years tops. Whether that still holds up or not, dunno.

RAFA’S GAME OF LUDO
By Ann Gripper, The Mirror

RAFA Benitez is looking to his old club Valencia for a goalkeeper to replace Jose Reina – which should be good news for Charlton boss Iain Dowie.

Scott Carson, on loan from Anfield to The Valley, has been in stunning form recently, and the Addicks’ hopes would be dealt a serious blow if he was recalled to Liverpool.

But with the Reds’ first-choice keeper Reina out of contract in June, Benitez is targeting Valencia’s French 23-year-old reserve goalkeeper Ludovic Butelle, who he brought to Spain from Metz two years ago.

Never mind Dunk – some of your members don’t see through you. Not many, but some.
I wonder if Steve’s started to see through you yet? Why are you still using his login id? Like here, with what I am guessing is an attempt at pretending that you’ve had a call off some contact or other at Melwood…

Rafa this morning

Rafa was as happy as normal when he arrived at Melwood today. He said he had no intention of leaving Liverpool.

Not conclusive i know but i thought you might like to know.

Of course that was Thursday, before Rafa explained how Chinese whispers had resulted in his agent being misquoted about Rafa’s future plans. Minor details like that don’t bother the likes of Oldham. The closest Oldham got to seeing Rafa arrive at Melwood was probably by watching Sky Sports News.

Still logged on as “ST3″, Oldham carried on with more desperate attempts to spark some debate and get some hits. All this makes him look so sad, but he’s desperately trying to get his site back…

If Liverpool FC hadn’t been born
#1695132 – Thu Nov 09 2006 03:28 PM
Reply to this post Reply Reply to this post Quote

If Liverpool FC hadn’t been born who do you think you would have supported and how would it have effected your life?

Local Reds would probably have been Blues but people from further away would have been brought up focusing on other clubs because of friends and stuff. I wonder what would have happened to you?

See what I mean by desperate? How about asking why a sad overweight waster from Scarborough dumped his love of Leeds to become a fake Red? Would it also be worth asking why he then added Spurs and Newcastle to his list of teams he supported? An open debate on that issue would get some hits.

Open debate though, as we’ve often pointed out, is not welcome on Koptalk. The few remaining members who still don’t know how they’ve been deceived by Oldham since shelling out that thirty quid are all that Dunk has left to hang on to. He’s frightened to death of them being given a chance to read this blog with an open mind. He worries a lot about what might happen should these members find out about other sites like www.est1892.co.uk or www.sixcrazyminutes.com, the latest sites to be formed by Liverpool fans wanting to talk about their club without being ripped off by the conman. In recent weeks a few people have been posting their email addresses on Koptalk, and others have found ways of circumventing Oldham’s attempts to prevent them from displaying their email addresses in their profiles. This sends a shiver down Oldham’s spine. Or it would if he had one. Time for a warning…

If you post your email address in this forum you will be spammed by our rivals who lurk here. If you need to contact another member simply call Steve on 07962 475020 and explain why. He will then make contact with that member to put you both in touch.
——————–

Rivals? He still claims we are rivals! This blog is not here to make money out of Liverpool fans – we send traffic to other LFC sites as and when the opportunity arises, and although I may have my own preferences I don’t favour one site over another on here. Why should people who pay £30 each to join a so-called great “community” have to phone a teenager to be given permission to swap email addresses? For one reason – because Oldham is shit-scared that he’ll lose yet more members if he gives out their addresses. And the daft thing is, people have already got hold of email addresses to use to warn others about Koptalk by this method! It’s stopping nothing. And if you want to try it, there’s now a free number to get through to Dunk’s half-brother – 0800 5300 192.

Even this weekend Dunk’s scraping the barrel desperately trying to get some kind of activity on his site. How bad is this post?

How deep are you?

How deep of a person are you? The question might even only be understood by ‘deep’ people. What say you?
——————–

So Dunk now thinks he’s ‘deep’. My word Oldham, you do push things a little far in what you expect people to fall for. The only time we expect to see the word “deep” alongside your name is when we are discussing your preferences for how you like your Mars Bars fried. Oh and if we are talking about you being in deep shit of course.

Next he’s still promising us that new-look site. Maybe we’ll see it before Christmas. It’s a race – what comes first? The book or the new-look site? Will either of those actually happen?

We are currently building and testing our new website. Basically this is an upgrade of the existing site as you see it now. There will be minor changes in appearance once the work is complete but there will be more content that you should find useful.

We are applying pressure on the people who are doing the work to have it completed as quickly as possible.

Hopefully there won’t be much disruption. You should not need to re-register or change any of your log-in details when the upgrade is performed.

We will update you when we are ready to perform the upgrade. Hopefully it will be before this month is out.

Please monitor the site news forum on this site for regular updates. Click on MAIN INDEX above and scroll to the bottom of the site to locate that section.

Thanks for your continued support

Finally, Dunk’s been keeping an eye on goings on at Manchester United and Leeds. One club is what he pretended to have called himself for charity for a while (even though he never once showed anyone the actual paperwork confirming the change of name). The other is his first team supported. There’s also a mention of Cardiff, the city where he claims to have bumped into loads of Koptalkers in August, despite failing to show us a single photo of one, or to have even a short conversation on Koptalk with any Koptalkers about how they met up…

I think a loan move there for him would help his return. They’re a huge club and the fans would love him.

Leeds should go in for him

——————–

Perhaps Leeds would be a good home for Duncan Oldham too. Thanks to recent visits here by Newcastle fans there’s no chance of Oldham getting away with a Newcastle United site, he’ll not fare much better in resurrecting his Spurs site and he never got round to starting his Nottingham Forest site. It’s a shame that Leeds fans would have to endure Oldham after surviving Peter Risdale and having Ken Bates on their case now, but as long as he’s leaving Liverpool alone, most of us would be happy. Maybe another team who wear all-white would be better for him – if you recall one of his many fantasies in the summer, he’s been learning Spanish since Rafa joined Liverpool FC!

More of the same from the blog!

Emblazoned on the front of the Koptalk.coN website webpage, was the claim that you could watch the Carling Cup game online – just hand over that £30 (£20 cash if nobody’s looking) and get Inside. Inside was this -

And guess what? It wasn’t on there. I believe some people got to see the game on streams elsewhere, but not Koptalk members.  Well, not unless they paid somewhere else as well as paying that £30 to Koptalk. Another example of how Koptalk doesn’t do what it says on the tin.

Dunk’s renowned on here for talking to himself, and he seemed to get extremely confused with it all on Wednesday night. “Macers” from Belfast posted this -

This is a good point.

With regards Fowler tonight, he hasn’t looked lightning, fair comment Dunk, but he has looked above what we have seen in recent weeks. I don’t know how to explain it, he just looks ‘Liverpool FC’.
——————–

What is he on? Dunk that is, not Fowler. It must really wind him up though, watching Fowler playing for us. Regular readers know that Dunk tried to spread some dirt – false dirt too – about Fowler during the Houllier reign. He claimed Fowler was too pissed or hungover to train when in fact Fowler was pretty ill. He’d spread stories about Fowler being out on the ale all night when the reality was Fowler had been out for an hour or so for a couple of drinks. He wanted Fowler out, and he tried his best. When Fowler left he had a headline on his “editorial” with a headline along the lines of “Close the door on your way out”, delighted that he’d seen the back of a player he’d tried so hard to hurt.

Oldham’s an evil piece of work. He’d be an evil genius if he wasn’t as thick as he is. Instead of being the evil genius he’d love to be he’s just nasty thicko. He tries to be funny sometimes, and it really doesn’t work. He’s only funny when he’s not trying. Here’s him trying…

That post was probably for our benefit anyway – much of what he posts these days is. It was repeated on here earlier in the week that Oldham had complained in the summer about the lack of English people on his trip to London, and he had other hints later on about how he’s not keen on “foreigners”.

A few posts later, he claims to have friend. As if!

A mate of mine is from Doncaster. He said one of the funniest things he ever saw was outside a Mosque.

Apparently while everyone was worshipping inside the dustbinmen came along and removed every single pair of shoes from the footpath and outside the Mosque and put them in the back of the wagon.

He swears it’s a true story.

(Had this been a Christian related story, I’d have also posted it)

Why the need for the last bit? Feeling guilty? Or just playing to this audience?

Then he revealed what he’s doing with the remants of that PayPal money he got from pretending to be collecting for his disabled cousin…

I’ve been playing a few days now. I can’t believe I didn’t start earlier.

Anyone play for real money? I must admit I’ve tried the free stuff on XBOX LIVE with Smoove (took a couple of hundred $k off him tonight!) but I tried real money the other day on one of the UK bookies and did quite well on that also.

Very addictive at first but after an hour or so I get a bit bored!

That’s his only friend – Smooch his video-game partner.

He’s already asked, a long time ago, for information on Muslims. This was on the newsgroups pre-Koptalk.  Now he’s asking daft questions on his forums to see if he can drum up some interest -

If we banned religion and got rid of all faiths… what kind of an impact on the world would this have?

——————–

Sorry for the short update today.

We’ve had the point raised again in comments that the blog seems to be consisting these days of articles that would never have appeared in here at the height of summer when Dunk was losing it on a grand scale. Comments saying that we’re posting here just for the sake of posting. Also that we’re repeating ourselves.

In some ways we are posting for the sake of it – Oldham is not doing much at the moment. I’ve always just posted whatever I find on Koptalk, and different people like different things. I think it’s important we post something every couple of days just so you know we’re still around. I’ve still got that offer open to all readers that you are more than welcome to write something yourself too. You might have a different viewpoint from us and I think people would like to hear it.

I thought his talking to himself was funny so that’s why that went in above. It’s not something of any great importance, but nothing really is in this particular post. Koptalk is barely ticking over. His racist joke and questions about religion were really just odd and so I thought they might be of interest to some of you. One other thing we try to do here is give you what he charges you for free of charge. He steals, we steal it back for you. That’s why the feed info went in at the front. I’m just wary of posting those feeds in advance, but I can assure you, that’s the only site he refers to now. And “Mohan” has mysteriously disappeared – Dunk just posts that link himself now.

As for repeating ourselves, my mention of what Dunk tried to do to Fowler has been mentioned on a lot of occasions, but I think it’s worth mentioning it from time to time, along with some of the other stuff he’s done. If you’re new to the blog you probably didn’t know what Oldham had tried to do to Fowler. And you probably don’t know that he’s had less concerted efforts to hurt Bellamy and Crouch too. If you are new, have a search around the blog and see what you can find. Use the links at the top too. You might then work out why Michael Barrymore’s at the top too, along with those shirts that certainly aren’t Liverpool ones. And while you’re at it, have a search on here for Chris Waddle and the Koptalk Hotel.

One other criticism is that we’ve “had a go” at Koptalk members. I just want to briefly say why, although I’ve said it in the comments a few times too. Koptalk should either close down or clean up. It won’t clean up, it’s had plenty of chances. It won’t pay back the money it stole from Liverpool fans thinking they were helping Dunk’s cousin. It won’t pay back all the money it stole from members who left when they realised they’d been ripped off. It still won’t stop using and supporting The S*n. If Koptalk was a Liverpool board member it would be the treacherous bastard of a board member that went to the Mirror today! Except Koptalk would have gone to the S*n for more money. It’s claimed in the past to have moles inside Anfield, when in fact it’s just a cancerous mole trying to stay attached to our club. We’re trying to fight it, trying to get rid of it.

We’ve nearly done it, but not quite. And if everyone who knows the truth about Koptalk stops posting on there tomorrow we’ll be one step closer to doing it. If everyone stops visiting at all we’ll be one step closer. We need those who know to stop posting. We also need those who don’t know to find out all about the truth about Koptalk. Drawing attention to users might do the trick (it has before).

I still want to know something. Why would anyone who knows the full truth about Koptalk and considers themselves to be a Liverpool supporter continue to post on there? Please stop posting on there. If you’ve got a good reason to carry on then please let me know – otherwise, please stop. Now!

Is it worth thirty quid yet?

Last night when I logged onto the plummeting site for members only, the newly-named Koptalk Members, I noticed that it had just 76 people logged on in total. SEVENTY SIX! This was at what should be a fairly busy time – I know a lot of people log on during the daytime, and again a lot of people log on during the evening time. Either of those times should be busy. At the time I was logged on me and the other 75 visitors were missing the footy on the box.

Funnily enough there were just two games on the box in the UK at the time. Both of these were featuring Dunk’s “other” teams. His favourite London side Tottenham, subject of his now disappeared spursarmy.coN site – http://whois.domaintools.com/spursarmy.com – and of course his local team, the team he’s got a season ticket for, his current faves, those barcode-wearing Geordies, who used to be subject of another of his discarded websites, upthetoon.coN – http://whois.domaintools.com/upthetoon.com.

After someone (koptalksucks.com) reported his last lot of video clips to the site owners, he’s now taken to putting his illegal videos onto YouTube. See http://youtube.com/watch?v=9EkHTG2FEO4
for the Galatasary goals. He sells his thirty quid memberships to people so that they can see these illegal clips – but he hasn’t even got the sense to restrict them to his members only. Watch the clips for free for as long as he tries to get away with it by visiting us here. See also http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/143949/steven_gerrards_beauties.swf, http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/191821/djibril_cisse.swf and http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/142878/riise_goals.swf – clips of SG, Djibs and JAR, this time using the metacafe site to host them rather than get shut down by his own ISP.

As well as letting you see for free anything Dunk steals for sale on his site, one of the aims of this blog is to let you see just what you get for your money. If you aren’t sure whether to pay for Koptalk or not, look at this piece of so-called insider information…

SCOUTING REPORT: Player assignment
#1656945 – Wed Sep 27 2006 10:39 AM
Reply to this post Reply

SCOUTING ASSIGNMENT

Date:

Wednesday 27th September 2006

Fixture:

Werder Bremen v Barcelona

Competition:

Champions League

Venue:

Weserstadion (Germany)

Assignment Type:

Player

Player Details:

Diego Ribas (Bremen). Attacking midfielder/forward. D.O.B. 28-02-85. Brazilian with 2nd nationality (Italian). Has EU passport. Signs for Bremen in May 2006 for 6m Euro from Porto. Previously with Santos.

Speculation or Confirmed?:

Assignment details (fixture & venue) confirmed. Player identity confirmed.

Liverpool FC official or agent(s):

Club’s own scout(s).

Previously Scouted:

12-09-06: UEFA Champions League Group A match (Stamford Bridge) Chelsea v Bremen.

So what did you make of that? Something that anybody could make up? Of course it is, and a typical piece of bullshit from Oldham. The only scouts he knows are the ones that meet up at his local church hall every Thursday, and the less said about Oldham and such things the better.

I thought this was a funny little thread too. Seems to be rather heavy with sarcasm, but these people could actually like Oldham for real…

Ok Ok… now I don’t want to sound all gushy or anything but I can’t help but notice that since Ste took over as Ed that Dunk has been around on the forums more often.

As a result I’ve found that the quality of threads has dramatically improved over the last few weeks. To the extent that I (a lurker by nature) actually felt the need to write this post.

Just thought I’d voice my appreciation. I also like the revamp that I assume Steve has made to the site.

I’m off now to scrape this brown stuff off my tongue and find a breath mint.

3-0 tonight. Crouch will score.

This has got to be a wind up right? Everyone hates me

Since we’ve been making the changes we can concentrate more on our members which is only right. We’re not finished yet, we need to upgrade the software and make things easier to navigate for you.

The best thing I’ve ever done is scale down the free site because it was leaving me/us with little time. This has enabled us to get to Melwood more often and do other things.

Steve’s got a lot to learn yet but he’s a good lad.

We still need to improve. I get very unhappy when I hear someone has been kept waiting which is why I always tell people to bell his mobile and threaten him

Like a politician (Cyril Smith?) – only answer the questions you want to answer. What about some interviews via your mate Rick Parry? What’s that? You’ve never met Rick Parry? He doesn’t have something you want? You’ve not got something he wants?

Something you have got though is a rapidly shrinking pile of thirty quids that you’ve conned out of people over the years. Along with your other large wads of cash from ticket touting and selling fake so-called “signed” items. Now that you know we’re watching you it’s impossible for you to pull these cons. Some people think you’ll be doing a runner sooner or later with the cash you’ve collected over those years, and it’s been commented on here on this blog by some. Which is probably why you posted this…

http://www.skyscanner.co.uk is good Dunk. It basically searches all across Europe’s flight websites and collates the cheapest on offer for you by date, price or both.

I doubt you’ll be going anywhere too far myself though, because thanks to your greed you’ve even got your mam in trouble over her dodgy taking of money meant for Lauren. So she can’t lend you the cash for a flight, and you’ve no doubt spent most of what was left on cameras, scaffolding and hotel rooms.

Maybe he posted the flight thing for us as part of a two-part mini-series. Here’s part two, with special guest star Smooch the Noo Yoiker with no mates…

Roger.

——————–

Why on earth he needs to post such crap on his already crap site is beyond me, but seeing as he and Smoochy met up playing games on their xboxes against each other it may just be part of some fantasy they have. Maybe it’s a game where Dunk is using a radio and he has to say “Roger”. Or maybe rogering is part of the fantasy. Dunk used to have a hobby playing with radios at one time. He was into scanners and such like, way back in his Del Johnson days. Funnily enough, (and clearly a complete coincidence, nothing to do with any kind of insurance scam I am sure) someone on his own street in Scarborough recently reported some expensive radios of the type Dunk used to talk on Usenet about as having been stolen from their car! Purely a coincidence though I’m sure. Read about it here.

Next up, a quick plug for Dunk’s fave film, from “Katie” who may or may not actually post messages herself sometimes. It’s the one directed and written by Mr Jefferies of course, he who supposedly wanted to invest in LFC and supposedly posts on Koptalk.

——————–

I’ve not seen it myself to be honest, so I can’t really comment. Must be really crap judging by Dunk’s reply. The one where he uses his own name. We all now know that one of Dunk’s family members really is called Katie, and she gets paid a bit of cash-in-hand from Dunk to lock people out of his forums on his behalf. We also know that Dunk logs on as her from time-to-time. He also logs on as “ST3″ for example. That’s two examples of real people who Dunk pretends to be on occasion. There’s also the fictional ones too – remember “Wallet”? Here’s a lovely tale all about him…

He’s just emailed me. Says he’s locked out but has been busy. I’ve asked Steve to sort him out. (You can stop that drum roll now. I thought we’d had the “Wallet” locked out before?)

——————–

Dunk’s not got as much time to use his aliases now though – he’s far too busy starting topics off in the desperate hope that it will get some interest. And he really does sound desperate, and very replies are forthcoming from his remaining guests…

So – is it worth thirty quid yet? Not a chance. Especially when you can keep checking out if it’s worth it by looking here – for free.

Welcome to Koptalk.coN

Dunk’s probably in his element that two of his favourite teams have visited Anfield in the space of just days.

After deciding to hide most of his site from the onlooking eyes of those who are investigating him (as if a thirty quid fee would stop them) there’s little need to tell you what happens at Koptalk in many ways. However we don’t want anyone hoodwinked into joining, so let’s see what he’s saying on the ten-grand-a-year server that hosts about a dozen pages.

We want our club back

I touched on this to some extent at the weekend, but I’ve decided to touch on it a bit more in light of some pathetic attempts to backtrack from Koptalk.

Love Liverpool? Boycott Koptalk.

Why?

The list is long. However try this one…

Would a Liverpool fan site worth visiting make up a story about a Liverpool player which is not only false, but designed to cause problems for that player, and also the club?

Koptalk does, and does it regularly.

We’ve spoken on this blog a few times now about Koptalk’s attempts to paint Robbie Fowler as a player with an alcohol problem, who even missed training due to still being drunk from the night before. In fact Fowler had a throat infection, he could barely speak. He had still turned up at Melwood though, but he was clearly unwell. Koptalk at that time were in league with someone who can be best described as a shady bar owner. The shady bar owner would chat on the phone to the shady website owner, and together they’d cook up stories with occasional facts in them. The facts were rare though, and hard to find in the midst of lies and exaggeration. Fowler wasn’t suffering with alcohol problems – it was a lie, and the act of someone who deserves to be described as SCUM. Duncan Oldham is Koptalk, Duncan Oldham is Scum.

We also saw one of his lies unfold in the summer. This time Peter Crouch was the victim. On that occasion Koptalk’s owner tried to justify his own support of the despised “newspaper” The Sun by saying Peter Crouch gave an exclusive interview to that rag. Liverpool players don’t give exclusives to The S*n. Liverpool players avoid it. Oldham even tried to claim he had a tape of that interview, and that he would be using it to end Peter Crouch’s Liverpool career when he felt like it. A lie, again. Scum, again.

As if he’s got something against Liverpool strikers, now he picks on Craig Bellamy. The Koptalk owner doesn’t just own Koptalk – he owns a Newcastle season ticket. Perhaps he’s got his own reason to hate the former Newcastle player Bellamy then. As the owner of this so-called fan site, why the hell does he want to screw things up for our players? He’s not a fan, that’s why. No fan would go out of his way to try and discredit a Liverpool player with completely false and unfounded bullshit.

Koptalk would though, which is why they need to be avoided.

Last Friday Koptalk had a representative hanging around outside Melwood, Liverpool’s training ground. It was the day before the derby. The representative was Duncan Oldham’s relative, 17-year-old Steve. Back in Wallsend, Duncan Oldham was logged onto the Koptalk website using the “ST3” username. If the following stuff gets confusing, it’s because Duncan Oldham was pretending to be Steve, pretending he was logged in from his laptop outside Melwood.

We were treated to this post on Friday, and we still haven’t a clue what the “****” is supposed to represent. Probably some old Yorkshire saying for being angry, but I’ve no idea…

Bellamy
#1636687 – Fri Sep 08 2006 02:13 PM
He was full of **** when he left Melwood today and a member of staff commented as to why ‘off the record’. I won’t say any more because what I was told could just be a Blue winding me up before the derby

And so we had the first hints of bullshit. Oldham (pretending to be Steve) saying that he had some information on Bellamy; he had to tell us he had information, but he couldn’t tell us what it was. This tends to result in speculation increasing about what the dirt might be. And it gives Oldham time to make it up in more detail.

Later on in the thread someone asked if there was any point to giving out this rubbish. Oh yes, said Oldham, we’ll be using this to stir the shit up once we’ve got a situation to fit our bullshit. Of course he doesn’t say it quite like that…

So is there any point to this post at all?
Yes if something arises later. Nothing to see here people, move on.

Next day, with the derby due to kick off at 12.45pm BST, the teams are finally announced. Bellamy isn’t included in the starting line-up, and in fact he’s not even in the 16-man-squad for the match at all. Rafael Benítez is asked why by the Sky Sports PPV reporter – he says it’s because he’s only allowed to pick 16 players, and he hasn’t got room for two strikers on the bench. It was a pretty standard explanation and perfectly acceptable to any Liverpool fan. It’s not so acceptable to someone who wants to look for something not there in an attempt to stir shit.

This, of course, brings us to that odious thief from the North East. On Saturday, at 12.12pm, half-an-hour before kick off, he posts this…

What I was told about Bellamy
#1637474 – Sat Sep 09 2006 12:12 PM
Ok he wasn’t winding me up then! I didn’t want to post it yesterday incase it wasn’t true and because it’s a huge game. The reason I made the brief post yesterday about him was just incase something did come up today so you’d know I wasn’t winding you up.
Anyway one of the guys at Melwood said Bellamy had allegedly kicked off in the changing rooms after the morning training session. I was told he’d been left out of the squad but we thought that it was just Bluenose propaganda.
Bellamy was “furious” said our source. As I said yesterday when he left Melwood he was full of ****. He certainly wasn’t going to stop when he drove off where as nearly all the other players did.
I didn’t want to post this yesterday as it could have distracted our preparations. I hope you appreciate that.
*** Further: I need to add a correction/clarification. The source said because of something that allegedly happened in the changing rooms, that was why he would not figure today. He didn’t allegedly kick off because he wasn’t going to figure today. In other words, the source claimed he was dropped today because of an alleged incident. There were no signs of any problems during training when they were all together as a group.
Edited by ST3 (Sat Sep 09 2006 01:01 PM)

I only saw this bullshit after the edit, so I’ve no idea what caveats he’s added between the original post and this version, or what he’s added to make it sound more convincing.

To cut the bullshit short, Duncan Oldham wanted to tell anyone who would listen to him that Craig Bellamy was dropped from the Liverpool squad after he’d caused some kind of trouble in the changing rooms at Melwood.

Some people reading this, at this stage, may be thinking that I’m wrong and Oldham’s right. He’d heard something and told everyone about it, and that I’m just being too loyal to LFC to be able to hear the truth. Once upon a time I might have thought the same way myself, but then I saw the light. Once you’ve spotted one of Oldham’s lies you spot them all. A mile off.

He couldn’t leave it there either. After Liverpool had fallen to the defeat most Reds want to forget, we had to listen to this comment from Scarborough’s most famous conman. He put this on the remnants of his so-called “free” site, and it no doubt got him some extra hits and maybe even one-or-two poor Reds who unwittingly subscribed to the site that lies to survive. As is common practice with Oldham, he talks about a story and tries to get readers to think that if they’d been members they’d know about it all in advance. In this case it’s true, because he made the crap up in the first place. His story was a lie, so how could any other site hear it first?

COMMENT: ‘Bad Boy’ Bellamy left out as Reds stuffed at Goodison

The decision by Rafa Benitez to leave Craig Bellamy out of the squad may have come as a surprise to you today but as alluded to our members yesterday, something just didn’t seem right at Melwood yesterday.
We were told at Melwood yesterday by a member of the staff at the training complex about an alleged incident after the morning session. “Bellamy lost it in the changing rooms,” claimed the source and according to them, he hadn’t kicked off because he was to play no part in the derby, he was to play no part in the derby because of him kicking off. If he did, or what about, we don’t know (yet).
When Steve told me this yesterday I told him to keep it to himself and not to say much on the eve of a huge game against the enemy. I told him that it sounded like propaganda because of the derby and that the source was probably a Bluenose.
We even spoke about it on the podcast but until today, I was dismissive of the suggestions. Whether you choose to read into things any further or whether you actually believe something has gone off is up to you. Personally I expect to see Bellamy back in the squad for next week’s PSV game. I’m sure his absence will be played down although Rafa avoided questions about his omission before the match.
Losing to Everton today was hard to take. I thought the boss might start with Robbie Fowler as he was fresh and I guess Crouch was the in-form striker. I would have liked to have seen Bellamy involved though so I guess that adds to the frustration.
It certainly didn’t look like the Liverpool we know out there today. Bellamy may have been absent but many big names were AWOL today.
Ah well. It’s Saturday and I feel the need to go and drown my sorrows.

KOPTALK COMMENT

From start to finish that “comment” is designed to make Bellamy out to be a troublemaker who was punished for his actions in the dressing rooms. It’s bullshit, painful, despicable bullshit from the mouth of a conman who wants to make money at all costs, including ripping off Reds and trying to ruin Reds players.

Why do this? He does it to make money. Bullshit, especially exclusive bullshit, brings hits. Hits bring advertising revenue and potential subscribers. If you didn’t know about him and his track record you’d fall for his bullshit.

Remember, this comment was the first time in a week that he’d put his own name to anything on his sites. He’s still hiding from people who want to have a word with him about other, arguably more serious, bullshit.

By Tuesday he was feeling brave again, but wanted to try and deflect some of the criticism pointing his way, as he made these comments under his own name. Now it’s all because of Everton fans…

Bellamy back to silence the whispers
#1641057 – Tue Sep 12 2006 04:40 PM Reply

If you believe the Evertonians, Bellamy was dropped from squad that got turned over by them because he turned in at Melwood on Friday drunk. Others suggested he’d been out brawling the night before in Wales.. oh and he also levelled Mark Gonzalez in the changing rooms! What a nutta (say it in Welsh, sound much better)!

The truth of the matter is that the lad was clearly gutted not to be involved against the Bluenoses but the good news is he’ll be back to face to PSV this evening and how class will it be if he does play and he manages to bag himself a goal. Everyone will be watching his celebration if he does, even those who will tell you that he just strolled out of Melwood last Friday without a care in the world after hearing he was “rested”.

We were watching the lads train last night on the feed and he certainly looked as happy as Larry. Although we broke the news about him not taking his derby omission that well to our members we did stress that it was nothing to worry about and that he’d be back for the trip to PSV. Much Ado about nothing but you know what the internet drama queens are like. We did our best to play it down but the internet likes a good rumour… trust me, I’m caught up in half of them myself!

Having moved on from the Bellamy drama, I’m excited about Dirk Kuyt getting his first start this evening. I can’t wait to see him unleashed. He’s the man that can destroy PSV if given opportunity do so. Let’s hope that Alonso bucks his ideas up if selected otherwise my campaign to have Salif Diao recalled could gain some ground

So this headline about “‘Bad Boy’ Bellamy” was Koptalk doing “our best to play it down” was it? No Oldham, it was Koptalk doing its best to slur a Liverpool player, something it even tries to do with Rick Parry!

You are a liar Oldham, and more and more Liverpool fans want you to see that we want our club back. We want our Kop back.

We spotted a few references on other sites about how Oldham was wrong. They had to hold back really, something we don’t have to. Although I suppose we do hold back really.

For example there was this, on The Liverpool Way’s Blog.

No Bellamy Bust Up

Craig Bellamy was not dropped for the derby because of any bust-up with Rafa Benitez or any of his team-mates. Rumours have been doing the rounds all over Merseyside (and the internet) since Bellamy was omitted from the squad which lost at Woodison on Saturday, presumably spread by mischief making Evertonians or unscrupulous website owners. There were similar rumours around town about Robbie Fowler when he was left out of the squad for West Ham the other week, and it’s something we are going to have to get used to if Rafa is to persevere with his rotation of players.

Bellamy was left out with the game in Holland against PSV in mind, that’s all there was to it. Barring any late injury or dramatic change of heart by Benitez, Bellamy will almost certainly start the game in Eindhoven alongside Dirk Kuyt. Sadly it’s inevitable that the muck rakers will attempt to stir up trouble as Bellamy is a player with ‘previous’. The first time he was left out of a Liverpool squad, this was always going to happen. The fact it was a derby game must have had them rubbing their hands together with glee. There was no bust up though, no matter what some would have you believe.

From what I hear, Craig Bellamy has settled in very well at Anfield and is very popular with his team-mates, despite moaning as much in training sessions as he does during games!

The writer of that article, Dave U, does have contacts inside Melwood, inside Anfield, inside the Academy. He exchanges texts with Carra, but Carra isn’t his only contact at the club. If you want to find out the insider info from that site though you have to read it, because you’ll not get headlines screaming out at you about what’s been going on. And you certainly won’t be charged to be told anything either. Donations are optional, as with all other LFC fan-sites that accept money from fans.

Another site spoke about it; this time referring to the article Dave U had written, but no doubt wanting to ensure that the truth got as much coverage as Oldham’s lie. It’s easy to guess what he means by “Usual dodgy websites”…

Bellamy bust-up nonsense
By Adam Bryant

Tuesday 12th September 2006
Ignore the gossip on the usual dodgy websites – Craig Bellamy has not had a bust-up at the training ground as some have reported.
According to Dave Usher, editor of The Liverpool Way fanzine and a man with real sources at the club, the only reason Bellamy was left out of the Liverpool squad for Saturday’s derby was to rest him for Tuesday night’s game against PSV Eindhoven, which he will almost certainly start.

More significantly perhaps, and certainly in a much more high-profile setting, was the article from the Echo’s Chris Bascombe. Not for the first time he had to write an article pointing out one of Oldham’s lies. No publicity for the fat conman who owns the www.spursarmy.com domain this time though. He pointed out in this article about how Rafa had to address the false allegations about a bust-up created by Koptalk.

All change up front
Sep 12 2006
By Chris Bascombe, Liverpool Echo

DIRK KUYT and Craig Bellamy will be given the opportunity to unleash their derby frustration on PSV Eindhoven tonight.

The £15m strike duo will be paired in Holland, as the Reds seek an instant return to form in their opening Champions League group tie.

Neither player started at Goodison on Saturday, and Rafa Benitez was forced to shrug off ridiculous rumours of a bust-up with Bellamy following the Welshman’s absence from the squad.

A lot of people who read this blog support our stance that Koptalk needs stopping. We also get a lot of readers arriving for the first time after stumbling upon our site from elsewhere. However there is another type of reader that we get – Liverpool supporters who still, for reasons I really, genuinely, cannot fathom, STILL, support Koptalk.

Why? Why support the liar who will make any story up, no matter how hurtful, no matter how potentially damaging, just to make himself some money?

I’ve no idea what mood Bellamy was in on Friday when he left Melwood, nor have I any idea on what mood he was in when he first heard he was out of the 16-man match day squad. If he was upset then it shows passion, which we can’t grumble about in a day and age where so many footballers play just for money. If Bellamy had Oldham’s attitude he’d be happy to be getting paid for doing nothing that day. If Oldham had been a footballer he’d probably have still been as fat, because he’d be the type of player happy to earn a fortune for sitting in the reserves. He’d have broken club guidelines and sold a story to The S*n.

And who’s next on Koptalk’s hit list? They seem to like having a go at our strikers, except perhaps Djibril Cissé, because they got more hits by trying to set off arguments in their forums about him. They had visitors in those days.

I really hope that new players like Jermaine Pennant, Fabio Aurelio, Mark Gonzalez and the rest don’t read Koptalk and assume it’s a site to trust. Or even that it’s a site to like. Carra and the rest will no doubt put them straight.

And as for who will be next, well seeing as he’s tried with 3 out of our 4 first-choice strikers so far, I’d say it’s a safe bet that his next target will be Dirk Kuyt. So watch out Dirk; a fat conman from the North East of England is probably going to start making stories up about you soon. You don’t need to worry though – most Reds already know what he’s like, he appeals more to Evertonians that Liverpudlians.

Love Liverpool? Stop Koptalk.

NB: I noticed a couple of days ago that a user with a display name of MJ007 posted once or twice on Koptalk. This user claims, quite blatantly, to be Mike Jefferies, he who wrote / directed the Newcastle United “Goal” film and of course a one-time potential investor in Liverpool FC. Well Mr Jefferies, either get Duncan Oldham to apologise for falsely using your name on his site, or explain what the hell you are doing contributing to a site that so clearly wants to hurt our club.

If you don’t then nobody, no true Red, will ever want you setting foot inside Anfield, let alone being part of any group taking over the club.

Koptalk is Anti-LFC. Liverpool fans boycott Koptalk.

Funny farm

“And they’re coming to take me away ha-haaa
They’re coming to take me away ho ho hee hee ha haaa
To the funny farm
Where life is beautiful all the time
And I’ll be happy to see those nice young men
In their clean white coats
And they’re coming to take me away ha haaa”

From “They’re Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!” by Napoleon XIV. Available on this album from Amazon.

So why did those lyrics keep whizzing around in my head when I was reading the crap I’d collected from Koptalk? I think you can guess.

First of all, would a seventeen-year-old who had only left school a year earlier, without any qualifications, lacking so much in any type of skill that he’s unable to get a job, write something like this?

Did he deserve a state funeral? Apparently it was offered but the family turned it down.

The reason I ask is a radio presenter said he didn’t deserve it but surely if he made people happy and if he was seen as a genuine character worshiped or at least liked by a lot of his people, then what’s the problem?
- – - – - – - – - -

A seventeen-year-old lad shouldn’t be sat in a shed at that time on a Sunday night working out whether or not someone deserves a state funeral.

That’s because the seventeen-year-old lad who was supposedly posting that wasn’t actually posting it. The writer was a saddo in his mid-thirties who once said words to the effect that it’s OK to attack under age girls at his age because they ignore him otherwise. The said writer likes to give advice out about how to pull too, if you’ve not read it already have a search for it on this blog – it’s hilarious. He also likes to advertise for a bit of wife swapping, boasts about shagging girls he’s met on MySpace and calls the 17-year-old boy he spends most of his life with gay or a rent-boy depending on what mood he’s in. He often protests that he’s not gay himself, so often that you do wonder if it’s another of his interests in life.

Anyway, about an hour after telling the Aussie government what they need to do about state funerals, he’s asking us this question. Still pretending to be Steve, of course…

Anyway, after still being awake at 12.46am he now had to get some sleep and travel back from Wallsend to Liverpool. Time for some more stalking. (If he was even there of course). Trying to get from Wallsend to Newcastle by 10.30am on Monday? I seriously doubt you’d do it in less than four, maybe five hours unless you left early enough to arrive before about 8am. Anyone ever done the trip? Or is Steve still staying at the Uncle’s?

Update from Liverpool airport
#1639527 – Mon Sep 11 2006 10:36 AM Reply Quote

I’m logged on from my laptop at the airport

The lads arrived at Melwood just before 9am for breakfast. They then boarded the team bus and headed for the airport.

I was unable to see who was in the party as the coach arrived at the airport and was allowed to drive straight through to the runway areas to the private jet. Obviously I can’t get that close to see who’s travelling.

They’re all onboard now and the plane is fuelling up as I type

I told you to put the coffee down. So the team arrived at 9am at Melwood. All at once? Or are we going to be treated to loads of video of loads of players arriving? They then had breakfast – Dunk knows this how? Sorry – STEVE knows this how? Then they got on “the team bus” and headed for the airport.

Now it doesn’t say when the coach (not bus) left Melwood, but let’s split the difference. The players arrived at Melwood at 9am. They were already on board the plane by 10.30am as fatty was typing. So let’s say the coach left Melwood at 9.45am. So Fatty saw the coach leave Melwood, ran as fast as his podgy little legs could carry him back to his car and proceeded to follow the coach in his Mercedes, reg plate of D1UNK. Or was it that Steve did the running back to the car, as fast as his rapidly fattening legs could carry him, back to his Ka, reg plate M99ACA?

Either way, neither Fat Leader nor Fat Apprentice were at Melwood today, I’m pretty sure of that. Nor were they there yesterday as they claimed.

And the thought of either of them trying to follow the coach to the airport is laughable. Then getting there and finding they can’t follow the coach through the gate it goes through. So they park their car and run to the public areas of the airport, probably upstairs past the statue of John Lennon and sit where you can see a bit of the runway. I’ve not been there myself for about a year, so it could have changed since then. And they sit there hoping to get a glimpse of the players as they board the plane. Alas it was all a waste of time, and so Fatty / Steve boots up the laptop to let us all know how he’s got nothing to show us for all this work. It’s all bullshit; inintentionally funny, needless, bullshit.

Like this was bullshit yesterday. Fatty logged on as Steve and pretending that not only was he Steve, but he was also at Melwood…

Rafa got the lads in early this morning for extra training.

Bellamy is present and there’s no obvious signs of any problems.

I spoke to the original source who told me about the alleged Bellamy incident that resulted in him playing no part in the derby and all he would say is that “something happened”. Either he doesn’t know or he won’t say any more. I will push him again tomorrow.

The squad will meet at Melwood on Monday morning to fly out for the PSV match.

Looking at http://picasaweb.google.com/koptalk.public, you’ve got some from your failed end-of-transfer-window stalking session, you’ve got some from Friday when Steve got to appear in the background on SSN, but none of yesterday. Why? Try this one – you weren’t at Melwood. You aren’t there today either. You are still a crap liar – fair play to you for actually going to Melwood and making an effort, but that small amount of credibility is thrown away again by a bit more bullshit.

Then Steve, 17-year-old editor of a site that once had potential to be good, has some advice for us on advertising. One of the many reasons for hating Koptalk is for the overuse of adverts on the site. I know of no other football site that is so riddled with advertisements, especially the pop-up and pop-under variety. It’s awful. Still, now that KT has a new editor this must be about to end…

Anyone use adsense or other pay per clicks on their web sites/web bloggs? How you finding it working for you? Google try keep kicking me off, but keep appealing and winning! Just found one called bidvertiser and thought i’d give it a go.

Anyone got any idea of the rules reg advertising on other sites that get people to visit your site and follow the google links? Would that be allowed? I saw people in computer forums, with their web sites in their profile, and everyone clicking on eachothers links after navigating to their web space.

This likely to get them kicked off if they caught?

Still fairely new to “all this lark” and any advice on hosting adverts etc would go down a real treat! I’ll help other people where i can even if it’s simply by following links and offering my advice on page layouts etc.

Two way street here i’m offering advice and tips for advice and tips. Simply just to help everyone out!

83. Number of calls taken since full time from Everton fans
- – - – - – - –

Instead of ensuring we have such an accurate figure as how many calls you’ve had from the bitters, why not spend a bit of time writing that book? Or more to the point, why not just admit there isn’t one?

Time to look again at what you get for your money inside the newly-named members bit. Video clips of the goals within minutes? No, despite the claims, you don’t get any such things. These are the only clips I could find when I last looked. I think the goal clips from Saturday were put on his site, but not in the correct part of his site.

http://www1.koptalkinsider.coN/vids3/100906b.wmv – Scott Carson saving a penalty.

http://www1.koptalkinsider.coN/vids3/100906.wmv – Goals on Sunday? “Kamara & McCaffrey analysis”
I’ve not actually had time to look at either one of these, so apologies if they are in fact clips from Dunk’s new “how to pull” hints and tips video. Change the “.coN” to “.coM”.

As for live streams – Dunk didn’t post much help at all on Saturday. One of his users, EST_1892 (no relation to the site of the same name) posted this link – http://www.myp2p.eu/Matches/Match1.htm. For £30, if that’s why you joined, that’s what you got. A link to someone else’s work on streams. So is £30 good value for money when the “live football” you paid for consists of someone who’s a member just posting that link to someone else’s site?

I was about to bring this article to and end, but then I found some more crap. I don’t have time to write up about in any detail but I think you’ll find it worth reading. It turns out that Dunk (as we knew) hasn’t got a contact after all to tell him what’s happened with Bellamy. He’s relying on gossip coming from members.

Still lying, still crying; nobody’s buying.

I’ve had rough few days just recently. Whilst you lot were excitedly waiting for the latest news on Lucas Neill coming from Blackburn, and some of you were hoping in vain that Daniel Alves was a secret last minute signing, I’ve been stuck in hospital. Nothing major, just some surgery that I’ve been waiting for now for some time. No teletex in hospital, no internet (well there was, but I didn’t want to pay 4p per minute to use it, tight-fisted git that I am!) and the only newspapers I saw were all left around by other patients. As if it was some plot to get at me, the papers left lying around were all the one that should be burned. Yes, that one. It wasn’t a hospital in Liverpool that I went to by the way. And I seemed to miss the person delivering papers each time he came, either because I was asleep or was in the middle of having a needle stuck somewhere…

Prior to going in to hospital I didn’t have time to do much more with the blog than approve comments. I had some real work to do, and despite what people might think I don’t let the blog get in the way of that. I’m writing this now with bits of tissue stuffed up my nose in an attempt to stop the bleeding. I’m not allowed to lie down. The pain killers I’m on are quite cool though, they make me feel light-headed and woozy, although they don’t really get rid of the pain.

My next blog will be all about the NHS and the way they kick people out of hospital too soon because of the lack of beds!

Enough about me. I wasn’t even going to write anything for the blog this weekend but I read something from Oldham that couldn’t really be ignored. He’s had a busy week this week by all accounts. Desperation is a word that springs to mind. Too little too late is a phrase that springs to mind too.

I had a friend use my insider login to keep an eye on Oldham and to copy some stuff for me, but it’s hard to know where to start. Last Saturday Oldham was at Anfield for the match. He went to the museum on Sunday and Melwood on Monday. After that it goes a bit hazy for me. One thing I do remember him saying is that he had to rush to take photos of training at Melwood through a hole in the fence, and that he’d also visited his gran. I think he was staying at his uncle’s too.

I’ll try and get something more organised up about his last-ditch attempts to rescue his site, but I needed to address the lying fat parasite’s latest bullshit-infested rant. And that’s before I start on the 236 unread emails!
This rant had the subject of “For those who said thanks”. As you can imagine though, anyone who said thanks  is soon forgotten as Oldham launches into his rant about the blog and anyone else who has upset his cosy little world.

Apologies about my reply here if it goes off course a bit – I don’t feel quite myself at the moment so it might sound like I’m more angry than normal with Oldham. Maybe I am! It’s all so unneccessary though – if only he could have been honest at some stage this summer. And get a brew before you start reading – it’s a very long rant this one…

For those who said thanks
#1629861 – Fri Sep 01 2006 03:00 PM

It’s 1.45pm and I’ve just got up. I’m shattered… just don’t tell Steve as he thinks I’m working at home (A minor issue, but he even lies to his trusted partner. Even Steve can’t trust fatty!)

I’m going to HQ in a few minutes and will spend the day adding the other stuff for you and then we’ll do a podcast today about it all. You might find it interesting. (Interesting to know where he’s travelling from to get to “HQ” – he’s told so many stories over the summer about where he actually lives it’s hard to say. I’ve now got a copy of the Land Registry entry for 5 Swan Avenue, kindly provided by a reader of the blog. It seems the house belongs to Maria Clare Oldham, who it seems bought it on July 22^nd 2003. It was worth “under £60,000” at the time. It also mentions Halifax PLC, I assume this means they are the people who the mortgage is paid to. So why do the kids live in Scarborough, if Maria’s house is in Newcastle? It doesn’t really matter where Oldham lives though – 5 Swan Avenue is the base for Koptalk.com / caboodlenetwork / chavgames / spursarmy / upthetoon and so on. It’s the place to serve any legal documents against Oldham’s many-named cons.)

Over the summer I have taken a lot of stick and abuse. (All founded too, in my opinion. It’s not so much stick and abuse though, as fact and comment). We made the brave decision that we needed to enforce a zero tolerance policy on the site relating to abuse and silly posts etc. I’m not talking about banter, I’m talking about things that overstep the mark. (He’s talking about things that might let other members know how questionable he is as a person, as a Liverpool fan, as a man taking money off them all the time.)

As a result some members have left and a few more tag on as they’re friends. (He means “THEIR” not “THEY’RE”) That’s understandable. It doesn’t bother me because I’m only concerned in the people who want to be here. (To say some members have left is true – a lot have indeed left. Some others were banned, certainly in the earlier part of summer. In fact the earlier members who were banned were actually still unsure of how true this blog was, and were really asking Dunk some simple questions. It would have taken very little for him to convince some members to stay on board, but his paranoid antics saw members banned. His loss, their gain.)

Rival sites and blogs have been created over the summer. (This blog is not a rival. Intentionally so. I have made sure that wherever possible I plug all other LFC sites. There’s a load of links to the right, some in other places, I want all LFC sites other than Koptalk to thrive. We are blessed as LFC fans with the number of sites we have. I tried searching for fan sites for both Spurs and Newcastle earlier in the summer to compare them to Dunk’s now demised fan sites for those two clubs. There’s very little out there for those clubs. Maybe it’s related to trophies won or something, but fans of Spurs and Newcastle are not given much choice. Dunk’s continued claim that this blog is a rival site is quite funny. Or maybe he meant “Blogs and Rival Sites” – I doubt it – in which case he doesn’t see the blog as a rival. The only two new sites I know of that have started over the summer started for good reasons, and he in many ways caused it. One of the sites was targetted by him last Friday when he got his mum to phone up one of the founders to make some threats. Around the same time he made threats by phone against one of his former members. Both calls went to the workplaces of those involved, and there is no way they could have come from anyone other than Koptalk. The two new sites from this summer are est1892.co.uk, which is now (loosely speaking) the home of former members of the koptalkinsider.coN forums, and sixcrazyminutes.com which is in a similar way now the home of former members of the free forums. I’d recommend you check these sites out when you get chance – both are free (in money terms and speech terms). Now for what Dunk feels about them…) For some reason they feel the need to target our members here. (I’ve no knowledge whatsoever what either of these two sites have done to “target” Dunk’s remaining few members. WHAT HAVE THEY DONE OLDHAM?”) Again, I can handle that. However, there is an unwritten rule in life that you should never involve someone’s family. (And here, once again, is the start of Dunk’s lies about his family being threatened by people. A big fat lie.)

During the last few months we have been receiving prank calls, hate mail, threatening emails and so on. (Prank calls I can believe – Dunk is such a big joke of a so-called Liverpool supporter that he’s an ideal target for a prank call or two. Remember – a prank call is a harmless joke, so unless his sense of humour is as poor as his diet he shouldn’t have a problem with that. If anyone’s recorded one send it on to us! Hate Mail? I actually doubt anyone’s sent “hate” mail. I expect he’s had a lot of complaints though. In fact I know he’s had a lot of complaints. I’ve only heard of two instances where anyone got a refund from him. I’ve heard him ignoring most complaints, and telling others that if they have to complain then they aren’t welcome! Threatening emails? What kind of threats? That the sender will go to Trading Standards? I’ve got the address now for the correct person to write to now at Trading Standards – write to me if you need it. That’s the type of threat he’s had, but other than that I expect he’s upset some pretty angry people with his taking of their money for reasons different to what he said he was taking it for! All are to be expected I think you’ll find. And none of those have come from me, I’ve not emailed him for ages now.) Fine, it comes with the territory. It only reinforces our belief that who is responsible shouldn’t be here as a member or members. (I’m glad he sees it that way. People who want to complain about the lack of things like Insider information, goal clips, feed information, competitions where the prizes actually get delivered, lotto tickets that actually get bought, like the pools tickets and so on – all of these people aren’t welcome? What he means is, as long as you’ll hand over your money, and be happy with whatever you get, not daring to question it, you’re welcome. Or for short – he only wants “mugs”.)

(Here comes the bullshit.) What isn’t fine is that they have targeted my disabled cousin Lauren and her family. (Who’s targetted Lauren then Oldham? Nobody. Or at least, nobody except you. You tried to get money for Lauren, and fair enough she’s had a tough time, but the piece of scum you are, you had it paid into your mum’s account. Then you skimmed off what you wanted for yourself. I’d like to see you prove otherwise. If you haven’t then you’ll be happy to get an independent accountant to look at your records and to prove that every penny went to Lauren. If you’ve something to hide then you’ll be too frightened to do this. I expect to see a report from an accountant within a week that proves you’ve not been skimming any of that money for Lauren.) They have targeted my mother, a widow and they have targeted my children who have been really scared over the last few weeks. (Who’s targetted your mother? Apart from the fact that she’s an accessory in your theft of funds from Lauren’s collection, who would need to target her? Still no proof of what’s been done is there? Another lie really. Same with your kids. If you are so worried about them why do you still post their pictures on the internet? Why do you get your daughter to chat to other members on your forum? Why do you make claims like the next one without ever providing one shred of evidence? Because you are lying. Again.) They are 6 and 13 yet someone thinks it is funny to manipulate photos of them and publish their address on the internet. They’ve been frightened. (You published their address on the internet. You were ranting about a paedophile. You said he lived next door to your kids. You linked to the story about him, which also included his address. Dickhead – you published their address! Does Maria know how much of an arse you are? You frightened your kids if they have been frightened – by inventing threats in an attempt to keep people in your family on your side. They still trust you, but for how much longer?)

As a father they come first before anything so I have been considering my next move. My 6 year old lad Robbie came into my bedroom a couple of weeks ago at 3am and said “Dad, I’ve had a nightmare that the internet people have broken in to the house”. It wasn’t nice to see and my first reaction was that someone’s going to get their knees shot out. (Two things. 1) Your son didn’t have any such nightmare, you are making it up. 2) You love your threats of gangland violence don’t you? Truth be told though, you’re a softarse soft in the head, you’d run a mile if anyone shouted “boo” within five feet of you.)

Do I jack it in (after a year’s notice) or do I advance? (You said in March that you’d jack it in at the start of the season if there was no investment. You didn’t. You’ve threatened for years that you’ll jack it all in, but nobody believes you any more.) Firstly I don’t need to provide any of KopTalk. I could have retired when I was 25 when the huge companies were throwing money at the internet before the .com bubble burst. (Broken record) Instead I bought some properties for our family and my mum. (Maria bought the house that has the Koptalk shed, and bought it with a mortgage. Bit more bullshit?) Basically we’re secure. Not rich, but we’re secure. (That’s a new one – he usually swings from super-rich to super-poor) Maybe some people don’t like the fact that someone’s done ok for themselves (and this was pre-Insider/GC website days). (Funnily enough, prior to the Insider and Gold Club, Dunk was given money by footymad to produce content for them. Next thing you know, he decided they weren’t giving him enough money. That’s when he started his insider site off. He decided he’d keep the best of his made-up stuff for the insider website, which he’d get money for directly. This meant footymad were kept out of things. One of Dunk’s many rip-offs, this time he ripped-off footymad.)

The reason that KopTalk continues is because I love what we do. (No, the reason it has continued over the years is because it’s made money for Oldham. Cash-in-hand in most cases, nothing declared, he can still – so it seems – claim benefits whilst continuing with this “unwaged” job. At least he thought he could. Time for readers of this blog to write in numbers to the DWP and so on. Why? It’s time he paid Liverpool fans back again.) It’s supposed to be fun and it is to us. I absolutely love interacting with Reds from all over the world every day of the week. We source all the news for them to try and save them doing it. We like to think that we’re helping them. It gives great satisfaction. (It makes him money to steal every other news story from the internet. That’s where the “great satisfaction” comes from. Instead of the original site, the one who pays the reporter’s wages, getting the money from the ads next to their articles, their articles are seen alongside Dunk’s mad pop-ups. Theft, pure and simple. Some malware is designed to change the ads people see on legitimate sites with ads belonging to the distrubutors of the malware. Dunk is effectively doing the same himself.) Other sites carry adverts alongside their content, they rely on that for their income. In fact that’s what Dunk says to anyone who suse

The primary aim of KopTalk is to survive, to exist. Nobody, including myself, receives a wage. Steve works 7 days a week from 7am until after midnight, both of us usally do. It’s our life. He gets a roof over his head, I bought him a car which benefits the site and he doesn’t go without. We work as a team. (Those claims of no wages again. Steve got a Ford Ka off Dunk instead of wages. He gets other benefits, as Dunk does. Plasma tellies aren’t cheap! And how does Dunk manage to run his Mercedes, as well as updating the car every couple of years if he has no wage? All this bullshit is getting smelly now. It’s time he declared the truth to those who matter. Perhaps the accountant he hires to prove he’s not stolen money from Lauren will help him to put all of this down on paper and make it above board. Maybe he’ll help him to explain this ten quid discount for cash sent through the post. In the mean time perhaps the benefits people and the tax people need to find things out. Again – readers should report him to those authorities if they feel strongly enough.)

On the net you read all this [oops] about me and I’ll respond through my book which will be out this season. (No it won’t. There is no book, never has been, never will be. Dunk says he needs to write his responses in his book rather than on the net. He says he has to spill the beans on all of this information he claims to have in his book rather than on the net. Why? Dunk, we aren’t as thick as you sound. Libel is libel, whether in a book or on the net. You can write much more on the net and get away with it, mainly because very few legal precedents exist for acusations made on the net compared to accusations made in print. You really are stupid aren’t you?) They slate me for the delay but they don’t realise how little free time we have. So I get no wage, it’s all doom and gloom, what a hero? No not at all. There’s no wage but if there’s money in the kitty then yeh, I’ll treat myself or me mam. I also have a fmily to provide for. Isn’t it rather sad that I have to justify this? (No – it’s not sad. You have been fleecing Reds and Sky viewers amongst others since the late nineties. What’s sad is that you can’t be straight with people, honest with people. You have to lie to justify yourself, and you make yourself look a bigger arse every time you try. No wage? My arse. I think you’ve had a nasty letter from HMRC or DWP myself, but as I say above, if people feel strongly enough then they should report him – he’s got to be looked at.)

So do I pack in? I’ve thought about it every year for years but I’ve always plodded on. (He’s just bloody said that! It’s part of his usual routine when he gets some attention. To say it twice in one rant says a hell of a lot about him.) Or do we advance further? (What does that mean? Has a member of his family found a new benefit they can claim for? Is he opening an Everton fan-site? Or is he trying to break the world record for least-believable bullshit? Ah, here’s the answer…) We’ve just had a bid accepted on a property adjacent to Melwood which will be ours within a few months if we sign for it. The benefits from this will be amazing for the site. (He now, still assuming his readers are as thick he sounds, think we’ll fall for this. Anyone’s who’s bought a house knows how the process works. If you are someone who has bought numerous properties as Dunk claims he has, you know that you can lose that house (in English law at least) right up until the last minute. There’s no need for a wait of a few months either. I suppose it depends on how Dunk’s planning his bullshit really. Is he planning to say he’s buying this house for cash? If so he can move there in less than a month. Is he planning to say he’s got to sell his down-the-swannie Avenue house first? If so then it will take more than months, because he’d have to demolish that portacabin first before he could sell, seeing as he has no planning permission for it. The thing is, it doesn’t matter which version of the bullshit he’s using. He’s lying. He’s not put a bid in. He’s too scared to move to Liverpool.)

Do we need to buy it? No. (You aren’t buying it you fat thief, get used to it!) Did we need to camp like tramps outside Melwood for a few days? No. (Oh, so now you had to camp outside. At the weekend you were claiming to be staying with family! B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T. Try and stay consistent please. Or do you mean you parked outside Melwood all day, if so then that’s not camping is it, Mr BS?) We could easily work 9 to 5 Monday to Friday and put in a few hours over the weekend if there’s a game. Do we? No. You come online and find a time when either msyelf or Steve aren’t watching things for you. (You mean you are online all the time yourself because you are frightened that someone might post some stuff about you that you don’t like.) We even mod the forums ourselves now 24/7 i.e. very minute of every day to try and prevent these idiots who lurk here from spoiling YOUR communities. (You mean you’ve got next-to-no moderators left now. They’ve all walked away, disillusioned at being a part of your scams that make you rich and everyone else suffer. And if they are OUR communities, why is it so easy to be banned?)

If people choose to follow friends to other sites, well so what, it’s not school is it? Why the drama? Why not just go? Everyone’s old enough and daft enough to make their own decisions in life. (Dunk, you are the drama queen of LFC forums. This rant is proof of that.)

They can keep pranking us, threatening us and so on but they won’t make a decision on whether we ever pack in. (What he means is that no matter how much it eats into his benefit cheques, he’ll still be running his site. His stubborness will be his downfall, which is nice.) The only people that count are the members here. If we feel there’s support here then we’ll plod on, if we feel we’ve lost it, then we’ll go. (You’ve lost it. Goodbye.) It’s no big deal. We won’t cry about it. (Oh, you’re still here.) We’ll just chill out for a bit. It’s your site, it’s your call. (Go – disappear. Soon. Either that or put the record straight. Write to me – koptalkinsider at gmail.com – and I’ll ask you some questions. Answer them honestly and openly, unless you are scared.)

People have to remember that we’re a fans site. The contacts and friends we have made is mind boggling. (He means “none”, as we’ve said repeatedly.) It’s been an achievement. We could name sources, positions etc but we’d lose them and some ordinary Joes would lose their jobs. (Again, bullshit, as we’ve been able to prove time and time again. Dunk has no contacts at the club.) We don’t have the resources of the big media organisations but look at our set-up? (You do have the resources of the big media organisations you liar – without their permission I’ll grant you, but you’ve got all of their stories and most of their photos, and you didn’t pay a penny for them.) Not bad is it considering. (Actually yes, it’s very bad. Very bad indeed. Get rid of the stolen content then ask us that question.) We do what we can how we can. Most things we try to do the club try to block. (They’ve tried to stop us using photos of Liverpool players for example even though we’re registered and have a licence with the Premier League. Well if you have got a licence (maybe someone can write to the premier league and check) you’ve only got it in the past month.) They tried to stop us selling official kit through our supplier JC Sports because we offered free postage which saved overseas Reds around £15 per order. Because we offered free postage, we didn’t get commission. We did it for our readers. (So why have you been using Kitbag for your latest kit sales? More bullshit methinks. LFC and those supporters of LFC that know about you want you kept away from our club. You are a disgrace to the good name of LFC. You are a disgrace to your own town.)

So there you have it. Membership of the Insider and the Gold Club is vboluntary. Nobody makes you be here. We don’t want to lose any decent folk, we just want the idiots out. That doesn’t mean anyone has left is an idiot, they may be just friends of an idiot or someone who needs to bend the truth a little. (Oh dear. That little section is quite funny without me needing to say anything. You wanted to say, “They are all idiots, how dare they question the mighty Daddy of Koptalk.coN?” but you had to hold back just in case one or two decided they’d come back to you again.)

Nobody gets banned by us, they ban themselves. Usually we suspend their account and try to have a friendly word, if they ignore us or tell us to **** off, then I guess they’ve banned themself. (Now that is bullshit, as I’ve seen proved time and time again. Dunk – you ban people, stop saying otherwise. You’d get more respect than you do now if you could at least stand proud behind the decisions you make. You ban people for stupid dictatorial reasons, but at least be man enough to admit it. Mummy won’t love you any less if you admit the truth you know.) If they listen to us and see our point of view etc then if they were educated enough, they’d understand why we moderate the forums for example, like we do. (So what Dunk is trying to say is that anyone who doesn’t think he’s right is uneducated. Of course we are thicko. Dunk – you are thick. (He hates being called thick you know, it’s one of his pet hates.) You moderate the forums like you do because you have told lie after lie after lie this summer, more than you’ve ever done, and people are catching you out. Stop the bullshit, admit what you’ve been doing, try and rescue your site. Thicko.)

You’ll hear them cry “If you disagree with Dunk, he bans you”. (I suppose that you can disagree with Dunk and not be banned, but you’ve got to be careful. Ask him a question about how the sales spiel for the Gold Club differs from the reality and you’ll be finding yourself “locked out”. And you won’t get back in, you won’t even get a reply.) Oh please, everyone disagrees with me. I know nothing. I’m a numptie. I rated Cisse remember!!! I’d be here alone if that was true. (Unfortunately Dunk you can’t list many things where people are allowed to disagree with you. You have the power to ban anyone you like, and prior to this blog a lot of people disappeared without any chance to reply. You’ve had the chance to reply to what we say on this blog, but haven’t got the guts to come here and reply to it. Why? Because you can’t reply, not without lying or looking stupid. I don’t think you’ll reply to this blog ever, because you’re scared of how much more shitty it will make you look.)

People who are abusive to other members will be kicked out. Usually we have a word because passion can spill over. Common sense prevails surely. To be honest that’s the only reason you’d lose your sub unless you’re spamming or trying it on. But when they leave, some people can’t handle it. They say how terrible we are yet they then dedicate their lives to talking about us on other sites. That’s how you can tell which other LFC sites to take seriously. Do you see us EVER slating other sites? No. (Oops – wrong again fatty. Why did loads of “lifetime members” get kicked out this summer, despite proving that they joined at a time when the only way of joining was as a “lifetime member”? They provided the details of their paypal transaction, you still insisted on an email. Why do you need date of birth for members? Why do you insist they use their work or paid-for ISP email addresses to register? Why did you get your mum to phone people up at work last week and make threats? Why have loads of members suddenly started to get spam on addresses you’ve got on your system? You are dedicating your life to pissing off your former members, the ones that stood up to the bullying Duncan Oldham. And that’s your real name – why did you lie and say it wasn’t? Frightened of the authorities getting on to you? People are spreading the word about you, because you are scum.)

They then say we’re scare of other sites because we register similar domain names. Not true. When someone spams our members or tries to disrupt our communities, then we’ll do what is necessary to prove a point and they don’t like it. They think it’s fine to spam our forums but if we trace the abuse back and contact them at the originating point i.e. a workplace or college, they say it’s not fair. RAWK… have we ever registered a domain associated to Rushian’s site? No. Why’s that then? Because Rushian is a decent enough bloke. We’ve exchanged the odd bit of banter over the years between each other and while we may have different views on life or LFC, he’s never acted live a 5-year old towards us. (I think that’s an admission that he’s made threats to one of those behind est1892 at his place of work. Also fatty, you’ve had a different excuse every time for your use of other people’s trademarks and domain names. Admit it – you steal those names to piss off the people you don’t like. Your rivals, the ones who aren’t afraid to admit what they think of you and to allow their members to do so too. All the other sites get along OK with each other, it’s just you that stands out. Because you are scum, and everyone is starting to see it. The last time I saw Rushian post on your site you gave him a load of stick and told a load of lies when trying to defend your support of the Sun. When you made a lie up about Peter Crouch you asked where Rushian was then. Probably banned, knowing how you work.)

I’ll explain much, much more in my book THIS season ok. I just wanted to throw a quick message up saying that if you appreciate the site and if you really do appreciate the work we put in for you then please, let us know because sometimes we need a lift. (A quick message? A long rant.)

Many other LFC sites accept donations and give nothing back. Instead of asking for donations we created a members site where we try to give something back. If a member comes to us for help about LFC or something non-LFC related, we bend over backwards to help them. A member asked yesterday if we could get some Gonzalez pics for his daughter… straight away I called Steve and told him what he had to do. (I thought Steve was at Melwood with you yesterday? He was on those photos you took.)

We enjoy what we do, we don’t want anyone to go anywhere, but it’s your choice. (Why not link to those other sites then, give your readers a chance to look around?)

I know that the persons responsible for threatening my family and scaring my kids has access here. (As I’ve said already, I believe that this is complete bullshit. It’s certainly not me. And as I’ve said before, why not forward these threats to me Dunk? I’ll even help you to find out who’s behind them. Send the full headers and everything, you’ll be surprised how easy it is to work things out. I don’t like the idea of people using threats against you. That said, without the proof I have to assume it’s bullshit, the product of your sick fantasies.) All I’d say to you is you must have too much time on your hands. You’ll never break me, ever. My family has been through so much in life that an internet stalker ranks at the bottom of the pit. Ask anyone that knows me and they’ll tell you you are wasting your time. The readers and members are the only people that count. (I might just do that Dunk, I might just do that. How about I get a solicitor to write to Lauren’s family explaining how I believe you’ve been skimming money from her collection to pay for your car and new tellies? You know you’ve stolen from her, but if you’ve not then you’d welcome me writing to Lauren’s mother. Perhaps the local paper near where Lauren lives would be a better port of call. Perhaps the local paper in Scarborough would be better. I did get a message from someone who went to school with you – they said you were a Leeds fan then. Who else can I ask Dunk? Send me the details and I’ll ask them. If you’ve nothing to hide then you’ll not be worried about me contacting your friends (if you had any) or family.)

People say go to the police, go to this, go to that. What’s the point? If I need to do anything, I’ll see it’s taken care of myself. (You’ve told us you’ve already been to the police. So was that bullshit too? You are full of it, completely full of it aren’t you? If your family is being threatened as you claim then you go to the police. It’s as simple as that. If you don’t there’s something wrong with you. Or you’re bullshitting.)

(Before reading the next bit, I want those of you who’ve watched “Phoenix Nights” to try and remember the scene where Potter gets a call in the middle of the night from Max and Paddy, a prank call. I can’t remember the details of the sketch in full, but Potter shouts down the phone to them – “I know who you are – who is this?” Read on…)

You’re faceless. You daren’t reveal yourself, you daren’t reveal your contact details, you daren’t knock on my front door. You’re a coward. We know who you are (a couple of members are police officers and you forget my father was a copper too) and we know where you live but do you know what, I aint gonna do anything because my kids come first. (See – who are you, I know you are… So the police have the ability to find out who the blog writer is? My arse fatty. They have got the ability to investigate you – and if your dad was a copper, assuming he wasn’t corrupt like you, then he’d be ashamed of you today. Extremely ashamed.) I’ve declined the hitter (yes I laughed too at the time) although when my lad was crying it was tempting. I was just explaining to an associate over a drink about what had been happening with the kids. Immediately this guy (who I know) nearly lost control and said that kind of stuff should never happen. It might have been the best £500 I’ve ever spent but if I gave the nod, I think I’d be giving in. Go anywhere near my kids though and you’ll be pushing up the daisies, guaranteed. (As I’ve said before Oldham, I’ve no intention of “going near” your kids. They are the victims of the way you are, if you care about them stop fabricating nonsense about them. You can’t keep using them to fight your battles. Stop bullshitting, stop threatening others, start sorting yourself out. Tit. When I contact the police about you, as I am now considering given what you’ve been up to in recent days, I’ll make sure I mention this veiled threat of you dealing with hitmen who charge £500 a time. I just wish it wasn’t complete bullshit, because they’d really have something to hit you with then. Is it worth it? Just for the sake of admitting a load of bullshit for what it really is?)

If you want to dedicate your every minute to talking about me, my family and my website, you must live a sad and shallow existance. You receive the support of the rejects and not the tens of thousands of Reds who email me every year telling me how much they love the site. Think about it. Take a look around yourself and compare your life. (Unfortunately Oldham you’ve not got a clue what my life is. Without giving too much away, my kids love me for what I am, not what I pretend to be. I don’t use my kids against people who are threatening to tell the world about how I’ve conned my own family and who knows how many others. I don’t take photos of cans of woodpecker and pork pies on a regular basis. I don’t pretend to be out boozing in Cardiff when in fact I’m sat in bed at home (alone) with my sleep apnoea machine. I don’t drive around in a car that says “Fat Bastard” on the number plate. If I give money to charity I do it discreetly – I don’t pretend to give it when I haven’t or to be more accurate pretend I’m not skimming the biggest part off the top. I started this blog as a bit of a laugh, purely to expose your bullshit “Insider” stories. If you’d got any contacts, and inside gossip, you’d have looked good. Even just one scoop in the whole of the summer transfer window. You got none. The problem with this bit of a laugh at your fake stories was that you couldn’t just hold your hands up and admit it. You had to add bullshit to bullshit. Lie to lie. You drew more and more attention to this blog by your own means. You are thick, you really are. And how we laugh – at the funny bits. People get angry at other bits. As for “me, my family and my website” – I thought it was “our” website. It’s not though is it. It is Dunktalk, not Koptalk. It’s your way of making money for you and your family. You are on the fiddle, you know it, we know it, you are shit-scared that those that have power will know it soon. I receive a lot of support, but to be fair, most people are happy to move on once they’ve seen you for what you are. Thousands of your members have left. Koptalk is dying. And you did it, not me.)

As for the members here, many of whom are extended members of our family, just let us know when it’s time for me and Steve to start cleaning windows to keep ourselves occupied. (Actually your family are all you have. They are your moderators now. You’ve lost anyone who has no need to show loyalty to you through thick and thin. A rough life you had at times means a lot of your family sympathise with you. They don’t know how bad you really are, they give you the benefit ( ! ) of the doubt. Up until now. Maybe it’s time they found out about the real Duncan Oldham. Maybe it’s time to speak to those local papers from North Yorks to Northumberland.)

I don’t intend to reply to this thread because I don’t want a debate. (You don’t want a debate do you! You don’t want anyone pointing out your lies. It worries you.) I just wanted to post a statement if you like to say thanks for the support and to remind people that life’s too short for nonsense. (At last, he remembers why he started this topic. Remember? “To all those who said thanks”. Well all those who said thanks, if there were any, have just been treated to page after page of your anger at being close to having to close your site. Pictures from outside Melwood are admirable, but let’s face it – you’ve bolted the kennel door long after the greyhounds have buggered off.) All we want here is LFC. (You hate LFC – you complained in this very rant about the club trying to stop you being a twat with them. Thickie.) That’s all we care about. It’s just a shame that some so called Reds don’t respect their fellow fans. (You ought to start respecting Liverpool supporters Oldham. Stop pissing them about, ripping them off, slagging them off, taking money off them for things you don’t supply. And stop thinking they are as thick as you, because that’s downright disrespectful). It’s just a website ffs. It might be funny to some of you but come on, please leave my kids out of it. (Fatty – you leave your kids out of it you deluded dope. The offer still stands – if you aren’t lying (unlikely as that is) then send examples of this abuse here. I’ll help you to find out who’s doing it. If you can’t do this, then for their sakes, stop abusing them in this way.)

If anyone wants to email me personally, my email address is editor@koptalk.com (maybe he’ll actually reply to some people’s emails this time. From what I’ve heard he’s ignored a lot of them recently).

I’ll be in the office soon.

YNWA (Stop using that – it’s not yours to use any more.)

(Not spellchecked… in a rush) (In a tizz more like!)

——————–

So what triggered that rant then? As he wrote that I was laid up with blood pouring out of my nose, feeling like I’d had a good kicking from one of these contacts in the underworld that he pretends he’s got. The trigger for his outburst is not something I did, clearly. My guess is that he’s come back from his trip to Liverpool, after finding his trip was a waste of time because nobody signed, to find nobody at all said thanks.

Shame.

Blog that! – Part 2 – Koptalk Keystone Kracked

by Rupert Insider

These are the Keystone Kops. Their job is to find kracked and krooked keystones.

As you know, a keystone is defined as the wedge-shaped piece at the summit of an arch, regarded as holding the other pieces in place.

If a kracked keystone gives-way, the whole she-bang collapses.

Koptalk’s keystone is it’s claim to have “inside information ” about LFC.

That claim has been central to the site’s structure for more than seven years.

Oldham understood better than anyone else the importance of the keystone. He reinforced it continuously. In all those years, barely a day went by when he did not insinuate that he was the recipient of a new juicy morsel of inside news.

In the beginning he hinted he got it from three ex-players to whom he paid a very small royalty for use of part of their syndicated columns, or from the 17 year-old Irish apprentice he attached himself to until the club put a stop to it.

But in time he realised that it wasn’t necessary to go to any expense or trouble. He stopped paying for information. Instead he started charging for it.

The Big Lie Technique

He had discovered that the Big Lie technique is very powerful when an audience wants to believe. So he just stayed in bed and made it up – first in Scarborough and then in Wallsend.

At first he relied entirely on hints. For example, one of his sources is supposed to be a member of the board of directors publicly known to be in conflict with other members and interested in buying control of the club – a pretty broad hint about Steve Morgan. He would cite this unamed director when publishing “inside” information about boardroom politics or potential investment in the club. Except it was never more than inaccurate speculation by someone who clearly does not understand even the basic terms associated with investment. And Oldham doesn’t know Steve Morgan and wouldn’t be able to contact him even if he tried.

He would also refer to Rick Parry, Executive Director, as “the wallet” and follow up with a report from a mysterious poster whose user-name was “wallet”.

But as the years rolled by and the money rolled in and he got away with it, he grew bolder. Why bother with the precaution of a hint – why not just name names? So his informants became explicitly Rick Parry, Executive Director and Ian Cotton, Head of Press.

As recently as July he claimed that the Executive Director wanted Oldham to come to a meeting at Anfield to discuss something that Oldham had that Parry badly wanted. Oldham said he would use the occasion to get from him something he wanted. But he would make Parry wait until he was good and ready.

Advertising the Keystone

To reinforce the keystone of his site, he plastered it with “Official News from Anfield” banners and his Google tags referrred to it as the “Official Koptalk Site” and every item of news or rumor and his so-called “editorials” (all of which were linked from News Now and other newsfeed services) were underlined in large, bold, red caps with EXCLUSIVE NEWS AND WHISPERS FROM INSIDE ANFIELD, MELWOOD AND THE ACADEMY

Until three weeks ago, that is.

So what happened three weeks ago?

Well, in June the keystone kops arrived in a Blog – which is what they called their jerky jalopy. They suspected that the koptalk keystone was krooked.

In the course of their enquiries they took statements from LFC. They were told in writing from the Executive Director that he had never met with or communicated with Oldham and never would – and were told the same by Ian Cotton, Head of Press. They were reassured in interviews by senior officials that Oldham had no access whatsoever to the club.

As for his claims, repeated again in July, that the LFC Official Site had several times tried to hire him but he would never move “to the other side” – the keystone kops referred those claims to senior officials at the club. Their response was emphatic. Oldham was not the sort of person the club would even consider hiring.

Oldham’s response makes for an interesting study on how not to act when you are discovered to have been telling whoppers for years.

First he ranted that the contributors to the blog were “loons” – well that was the mildest of the 25 affectionate epithets he called them.

Then he said that the loons had never communicated with the club, and if they had, and if the club had responded, it was because the loons had misled the club.

He would put the record straight by calling Ian Cotton right then and there. A few hours later, early in the morning when only Australians were surfing, he reported back triumphantly. It was just as he thought – Cotton had confirmed on the telephone that he had never made the statements attributed to him by the Blog!

Oh dear! The keystone kops may be kooky but they leave no stone unturned – especially keystones – and they followed up their enquiries at LFC to show the club the transcripts of his remarks. The official in question confirmed that Oldham had still never had a conversation with Ian Cotton – his claim on KT was yet another barefaced lie!

But Oldham was not done yet. He made a big announcement that following hours of meeting with “the suits” he had arranged for “official Koptalk representation” at all games in the 2006-2007 season, and at all training sessions, press-conferences and all events at the club such as the unveiling of kit and new players.

He tied this announcement to his alleged hiring of a well-known Liverpool sports photographer and he mentioned the costs of image rights to be 12,000 pounds annually.

The photographer and his agency would henceforward be known as the “Koptalk photographer”. And to prove it, Oldham published a photograph from his agency showing Parry and Rafa looking at a text message.

True to form, Oldham had doctored the photo to place a black bar over the eyes of a man standing behind to suggest his identity had to be protected because he was one of KT informers.

In BB years (Before Blog) he may have got away with it. But the keystone kops analysed his claims in the blog, discussed them directly with LFC and wrote to the photographer in question. The photographer did not reply. But suffice to say that he does not supply photos to KT and Oldham has stopped claiming he does.

And Oldham is still excluded from all events at LFC, except public matches – which he prefers to watch on TV in his Portakabin in Wallsend, despite his claims to have bought a season ticket.

By July, LFC had issued Oldham with a demolition order. He was to remove from around his keystone all the grouting he had nicked from their yard.

He was to stop pretending to be “official”, or to claim to have access to the club or contact with LFC directors and employees or to be in possession of “exclusive” news from inside the club, or to continue to rip-off the Official Site of the photographs, videos, articles, the Rick Parry column and the Rafa column and interviews with players. He had been stealing this stuff from the club for years and selling it to members of his Insider and Gold Club.

Now Oldham was really mad – or scared! He threatend to talk to the “top brass” at the club about the “officials” who were making it difficult for him. Furthermore, he would now bring forward the publication date of his book to expose them to the world.

Of course he won’t – it would be too much like hard work and it will cost him money.

Instead he started complying with the LFC warning – removing the “official” and “exclusive” banners, omitting the stolen content, or most of it, even admitting that “I do not have a direct line to Parry’s office” and anyone who had believed he had was stupid.

So take that all you who believed his keystone claims and paid for the inside information that never was!

Oldham has not mentioned on KT that if he does not comply with the LFC warning he might be looking at some very embarrassing public denunciations from the club, as well as heavy legal fees and damages.

The “Local Media”

An important part of the Koptalk keystone was his alleged relationship with the local media.

He could not deny that the likes of Chris Bascombe of the Liverpool Echo enjoy a good reputation among supporters. So he tried to profit from it. First he stole their stories and presented them as Insider “exclusives” which also happened to be “confirmed by the local media”. Then he hinted that the reporters were also part of his Gold Club – his informants.

The keystone kops kooled that one. They spoke directly with Chris Bascombe. His response was “Koptalk? Is that still around? I thought it was closed down years ago”. And he sent the Blog an excerpt from an article he wrote in October 2001 in which he accused KT of an outrageous lie about Robbie Fowler.

The Big Question

This is a a summary, so I’m not going to list all the lies Oldham has told and all the deceptions he has used to make money. If readers are familiar with KT they already know the golden oldies. If they are regular readers of this blog they have seen his lies patiently unpicked on an almost daily basis by Insider who wanted to show the pattern – to demonstrate the techniques. And through his analysis we have seen that there is virtually nothing Oldham won’t lie about – however important or however trivial. He even lies about his name and his address.

So the question for today is – why was he allowed to get away with it for over seven years? Why did people pay him money? Why did those who did not pay him money support his site, suck up to him and allow him to besmirch the reputation of the club and bully and rip-off its supporters?

One answer might be found in the posts in the Insider and Gold Club in July and August from those who objected to the Blog’s revelations.

After parroting Oldham’s line that the Blog was jealous of Oldham’s success, they then took to parroting his line that the keystone kops had never communicated with the club and the club had never disassociated from him. And when that was proven false they parroted his line that Parry and Cotton and Bascombe and all the others had to deny involvement for “political” reasons.

That explanation is revealing. Why would it be “politically” harmful for all these worthy gentleman to be associated with the “World’s No. 1 Sports Site” and the “No.1 Site for LFC supporters”?

And if it would be politically harmful why would they risk their jobs, their professional relationships, their sources of information and their very reputations in order to provide a spiv from Yorkshire with snippets of exclusive information so he could sell it for up to 30 pounds to a few hundred anonymous people logging in from all around the world?

Those who still participate in the KT Gold Club and Insider or on the Free Forums might do a reality check from time to time and ask themselves if they are floating in North Africa on “de Nile”.

There are many good sites – based on truth, not lies, where the posters can communicate with each other freely without the overbearing presence of a money-grubber. Some of them are listed on the right of this page.

Proof

The keystone kops did not need a sledgehammer to krack the Koptalk keystone – they just asked a few simple questions.

Others can check our results independently by asking the same questions.

Oldham has his work cut out to keep the keystone in place. There’s no doubt it is kracked. Pieces of grouting are falling and the entire Koptalk structure has become unstable.

Is the damage structural or superficial? Let’s have a look.
