[6yearsncounting]

I think every star article ive ever red has had a spelling mistake in their.

 

[6yearsncounting]

I see what you did there. I think

 

[McGrath]

If the article had been printed in 1787 you might almost be correct. So nonny nonny to thee, sir.

To keep using Bramall Lane makes us victims of Ordanance Survey mind control techniques

Let's rebel against the dark state machine

 

[super_pig]

I thought we went over this and Bramall is actually a misspelling of Bramhall.

It should actually be Bramhall Lane because the land around it was owned by the Bramhall family.

So the Star is being historically correct. So well done Sheffield Star and booooo to all the pedants slagging it off

it’s Bramall now.. no argument this dog ate my homework stuff won’t wash

Not according to The Star which ignores small facts like league position, crowds and importance.

@mrsstringjunior is of the porcine persuasion and she swears the St*r is, and always has been, biased towards us.

Bollocks! I missed that! It's early on Saturday, so I'm still half asleep. Like the Star's editor.

Divorce is the only solution.

Incidentally Johnston Press (who owns The Star), actually print the Daily Mail.

I do have some sympathy for the reporter. I was very briefly a reporter for a local newspaper in Derbyshire. To the delight of an elderly couple, I interviewed them on their wedding anniversary. Unfortunately my basic maths let me down and I said that they had been married for 40 years not 50, ruining the article for the wife who had planned to have it framed

People usually describe the length of their marriage by the number of years they've been married, not by the year they got married. You sure you "calculated" it wrong? Seems a bit odd to me. Anyhow, it's humble of you to admit it, but I can well understand why they were upset about it. No wonder you were "briefly" a reporter for a local newspaper. Is that when you turned your journalistic skills to this messageboard instead then?

Oh right, yes. The Matlock Mercury. Now I know what you mean. My gran and grandad once kicked the shit out of one their reporters for getting their name wrong, or something, in an article. He didn't last long. Went off to the Worksop Bugle after that I think.

It wasn't me . Is that true about getting your gran and granddad's name wrong!?

"granddad's" - You're Welsh aren't you? Go on! Admit it!

No mate. Most things I post on here aren't true. I am a compulsive liar and this is my alter ego speaking. The next bit is true though.

I have a cousin, now deceased, who was the author of many books. In his autobiography he wrote of his childhood memories at my Grandmother's house, when my father was himself a boy. The book he wrote was an interesting insight into his life and into the childhood of my own father. However, my father was not best pleased at some small factual inaccuracies, which seemed to ruin the whole book for him.

I'm not Welsh, I guess it's because of those types of inaccuracies that I only had a brief career as a journalist!
