IT CAN'T BE TRUE!? could TW be getting dropped?

Today a rumour has been circulating the web after the news company "the daily mail" posted a story claiming the band could be dropped after "poor sales" of the newest album "Word of mouth". The story claimed the band only sold 40,000 copies in the UK despite charting in the top 10 in both the UK and Ireland? The album which "flopped" worldwide actually went platinum (1m) in Mexico before release!

The news paper also claimed that although the band announced the cancellation of the european leg of the world tour due to "scheduling issues" it was infact because of "bad sales". Obviously this caused an outcry on twitter with fans becoming upset, especially with Max and Nathan's recent losses and the band not tweeting anything to confirm or deny this. I personally think it's rubbish but what do you guys think? let me know below!
