Apart from the poltergeist activity - things moving in the room that the boy couldn't have reached, which were not independently verified anyway - everything that occured could have been done easily by a 13 year old.
The book was wriiten after the discovery of one of the priest's hand written diary, that is the only record he went on. Most of the exorcism team were dead when he researched it. But crucially for me, the youngest priest was still around and gave him eye witness material, and parts of his recollection didn't match the diary events. The boy, now a married man in his forties, was never approached for the book.
Robbie flobbed on everyone's faces, even when his eyes were closed and he was thrashing about the bed, he hit his target every time; the author made a big deal of this, along with the volume of phlegm itself. When I was 13 I was full of flob, and could hit our cat across the room with 95% accuracy.
There was no head turning, projectile green vomit, levitation etc. The voices - said to be the deveel himself - and the sratches that appear on him can be explained as acting, and no-one in the room ever thought to check under the boy's fingernails for flesh after these scratches appeared.
I just finished the Mothman Prophecies, a much better read, and de-bunking those events seems to be a lot more difficult
