Billysboy Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 18 minutes ago, Snap said: From Alex Miller at the Star quoting Rosenior. "We conceded three goals in quick succession in the second half but that's on me, I gambled, I wanted us to go man-to-man and press a little but higher but if left too many gaps," he reflected. "The reason I felt like I was in a position to dot hat was because the players' performances have been so good. What I didn't want us to do was kick them back the ball and sit o the edge of the box for half a match. I didn't think we'd have the mental energy to cope with that." If he posted like that on here he'd get slaughtered. So come on Alex and Joe, it really is time to up your game and start reading back through what you're writing. Agreed, I always read back anything I post online (for fear of ridicule mainly) but these 2 must feel they don't need to dot hat. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen the pair of them take a bit of stick from time to time on X, OK mainly from WUM's and trolls but they're quick to point out that "You don't understand how it works" and quoting their degrees or qualifications in journalism which obviously doesn't include being able to spell and communicate in the English language. Maybe they graduated from the University of Moscow. But even then, with auto correct and spell checkers being what they are, there really is no excuse for it. I suppose they have to be cut a bit of slack though as it isn't just Alex and Joe that's a fault, there's loads of it in the local press right across the country. This is what I don't get, it's never been easier to write an article correctly, sheer fucking laziness if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylluan Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) It's laptop/smart phone journalism. They're typing as they're listening and I doubt their journalism degrees covered typing at 80 words a minute. Even worse if they're using some form of speech to type AI and just holding the phone up when someone is talking. Back in the days of the Green Un, if you sat near the press box you could watch/hear the journos on the phone dictating the match report which would have been typed out as dictated but also checked by the type setter for spellings before going to print and it would still be out on the street before you got back into the city Edited January 3 by Tylluan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diaby, Fletcher, James Xisco Munez + Team Loans are in italics and could be returned in January. Question is, would you trust the same team to improve the squad in January? If not - what would you expect the Chairman to do. Should he back his current coaching team and try to bring in their preferred recruitment staff which includes negotiating their release from other clubs, or stick with what he's got and trust them to sign a new keeper, LB/LWB, 2 Centre Mids and at least one striker? I'll put Danny and team into Hit, Fletcher into Maybe but apart from that it still stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered if it was Musaba's middle name so looked it up on Wiki and it doesn't appear to be. Didn't realise Musaba has a twin brother who's also a footballer. Maybe Walter is Crann's middle name. Or Alex Miller's even. 😀 Looks to me like he does have a twin but he ISN'T a footballer. Despite that, since the end of the Stoke game Walter's been the one in the team!

I just don't see a problem referring to somebody by their nationality. He's a 'foreigner' on these shores, so his nationality makes him more easily identifiable.
