Shocking editorial standards to let that headline through - local papers are really in decline

Ffs u lot are obsessed with the telegraph get over it!

Shoddy though. You expect newspapers to use the spelling of headline words correctly don't you. They should know their homophones and homonyms.

They proof read these things surely don't they?

 

[Otis]

You should see their next piece! Truly shocking.

'It was bald of Mark Robins to stick with the same side, but the decision backfired on him and he will be left bear-faced after this effort from his players.
The Sky Blue faithful will be hoping this is just a one off and not the start of a baron spell.

It was one single mistake that left the bawl in the back of the City net and Liam O'Brien will surely being crying in his tee this morning.

Against a well organised Newport side City's midfield lacked byte and Mark Robins' team were maid to pay deerly for there mistakes and will be hoping for better look next weak against Yeovil.'

It's a newspaper, it's in the business of written word, you need an English focused education to be a journalist. "Manor" that's shoddy, and I depend on spellchecker for everything!

Someone needs to change these Banor headlines.

This is an old poem, any modernspell checker would catch the CT’s mistake, which suggests they didn’t even bother running it through that.

[wingy]

Just a spelling mistake.
No need to Busta Bloodvessel.
