Watford supporter, too, apparently 
Seems good at his job, but also very full of himself too.

He’s made a living out of it good luck to him.

What he's good at is reporting exactly what the agents who talk to him want him to say. If that's a job - helping the most despised people in football - it's an odd one.
The Cucurella saga was actually interesting. People played it as Romano v Naylor but it was really Cucu's agent versus Brighton and Hove Albion's top brass' message. You sort of got to the truth via a combination of both if you were good at reading between the lines. But, ultimately, Romano confirmed the deal at the wrong time for the wrong amount. The fact that there were add ons and that Colwill ended up a loan, neither of which were in Romano's pinned £52.5 million tweet, shows there was still plenty of negotiation being done. FR reported what Mr 10% wanted - and got it wrong. Not sure there's anything "good" about that.
As for unsettling players who've signed five year contracts.......

We should be thanking him for helping drive up the price of Cucurella. As ever Tony Bloom plays his hand like a ****ing legend.
On a side note: I never thought I’d see the day The Albion sold a player for £60M

If ever there was a case for learning to embed tweets, it's this one!

If you believe in horoscopes that's fine by me. (You're an idiot, but you do you)
Just don't tell me horoscopes are the truth.

He is not a journalist that decided to get information on transfers, he was a kid who had some information on transfers, and became a journalist. It's people like us that share and discuss transfer rumours that give him a living, he is just feeding our desperation to know what is going on with players and clubs.
In least surprising news, 17 year old football obsessed Jnr, believes FR to be the second coming and hangs on his every word as FACT.
But then again he is a f**king idiot so it's not really surprising.
I think Romano is a bit of a prat - still trying to claim he called the Cucurella deal correctly, when all the evidence suggests otherwise.
He’s the epitome of everything wrong with modern football

And his army of sycophants all digitally noshing him off as a hero. Odd.

Not seen such Bravery!
Looking back I think he was reasonably correct on things - although he was just giving the agent's take on proceedings.
He reports what his sources feed him - no real obligation to do proper "journalism" and get feedback from all sides - which he wouldn't get from tight-lipped albion anyway.
It just may not have been what I wanted to hear ?

He's just a tool for the agents.
An unkind person might say it was hereditary but I am not unkind.
He's a 17 year old boy.
He currently has one job in life:-
Be a f**king idiot.
Show me a 17 year old who isn't a f**king idiot and all you're doing is showing me a f**king idiot for wasting away his f**king idiot days...
...before the real world catches up with him.
Quite what the 'grown ups' get out of it is anybody's guess.
