Skyline Drifter Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Radio 2's Sports Round up at 6pm could only be bothered mentioning the one Scottish Cup tie..... and they got that one wrong!

Caledonian Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The BBC is an easy target so here we go again. Yesterday afternoon they went over to Ewood Park for a live update right at the point where Blackburn Rovers had just scored. The reporter credited the goal to Craig Conway. It turned out that the actual scorer was Josh King. I can appreciate that it can be easy to make a mistake in a spontaneous report but how could she not differentiate between Craig Conway who is white and Josh King who is black?

harry94 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 There was a good one down south a couple of years ago. Barnsley were playing Birmingham and trailing 1-0 while pushing for a last minute equaliser. SSN reported that Morgaro Gomis had scored a second to kill the game off but it was corrected to be a Barnsley equaliser a few minutes later. Both players had the same squad number which caused the confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rover the Moon Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Picture in the Sunday Mail today has Kevin Cawley 'scoring' at Cowden yesterday but the pic is clearly from Recreation Park, or whatever it's called these days.

palmy_cammy Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 This match report from The Scotsman refers to Chris Higgins as Michael Higgins. It also describes the game as a being a bit more one-sided than the reality. It's almost as if it is from an Edinburgh-based newspaper. http://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/spfl-lower-divisions/queen-of-the-south-1-2-hearts-late-strike-seals-it-1-3697691 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I don't think other than the glaring Higgins cock up there's an awful lot wrong with the report, though I wish I'd watched their first goal a bit more closely. Not sure I've ever seen a ball "loop around" anyone on it's way into the net! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluegrass Bairn Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 The Herald's football coverage continues to be indistinguishable from the red top rags, as once again they have to shoe-horn the obligatory O*D F**m connection into each and every story, however tenuous - today's effort is the headline that "former Celtic player Pressley leaves Coventry". Its like an insecurity issue for these lazy amateurish feckers. Steven Pressley could be called many things (haha) but 'former Celtic player' most probably not the first description that comes to mind for anyone, except The (Glasgow) Herald and its shitty journalists.

Dr Koop Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I recall the Herald ran a two-page interview with the Blessed Martin about three years after he left Celtic. I'd tune in to radio interviews with Jackie Mac while he was Thistle manager. I'd have to grind my teeth through an hour of shite about Celtic - questions that had been asked of 100 other ex Celts.

We sent McNamara and Donnelly down to Greaves in Glasgow. Every question asked by the press related to Celtic's new manager. Edit for minor correction and to add supporting link.

Elixir Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 BBC Sport: Hearts celebrate securing Championship title Hearts have secured the Scottish Championship title - returning to the top flight after one season.Rangers' 2-0 win at Hibs means Robbie Neilson's men, 13 points ahead, cannot be caught by the chasing pack. Neilson had stated his preference for his side to secure the title in front of a home crowd at Tynecastle. Hearts tweeted: "Championees you beauty. Congratulations to everyone connected with the club, especially our fans #wedidittogether" The Edinburgh club have lost only one of their 25 league games this season and, speaking before clinching the title, Neilson said his players were prepared to work hard for their success. "As a coach, you just want guys who are prepared to work hard to make the best of their ability, and we definitely have that," he told his club website. "All the coaches and I can do is prepare training, and hope the boys buy into it, which they all have done. "Even when we've won the league, it's important that we continue to win games. We have to play Hibs and Rangers, and it's vital for us to beat these sides. "Our mindset is that we must win every game, a club of this stature must not accept less." Clowns.
