    That ‘article’ is absolutely rife with errors.

    Basic English literature should not be too difficult to comprehend.

    How can anyone struggle with a simple name like STENDEL?

    That's like saying, for example, I loved those players we got from Middlesbrough: Craig WIGNETT, Paul PILKINSON and Super John BENDRIE.

    Their job is that of a journalist. Using the written word to create and report. That is a shambolic piece of work.


    If I was a tyre fitter and put Fred the greengrocer's carrots on cars instead of tyres I would be down the road.

    Still no excuse for a basic inability to get simple facts correct in an article, such as the name of the subject of the article.

    Also, it goes out under The Star's logo on its website, so by implication they're happy to be associated with it. Presumably there's some sort of editor who has overall responsibility for the content put out on the site?

    Surely no editor can have read that?

    If not, then it implies that the freelance journos can upload content to the site without any sort of review/oversight. It would explain the shoddy article, but there'd be all sorts of potential issues for the organisation from this.

    Looks like it has been edited.

    However it still contains "approached by the Barnsley "

    Down the years the Star and the Green 'Un in particular were renowned for their printing
    errors. Best one ever was a report on a Wednesday, Man Utd game in the 60's, when it said
    " Charlton tried a **** from 30 yards but made a mess of it."

    It was inevitable the Green 'Un would have mistakes, as it was rushed out and delivered to newsagents within an hour of the games finishing on a Saturday.

    I'll take the internet over a local paper 1,000,000 times out of 1,000,000, thanks.
