Adding an excessive 'm' to Doonhamers is a crime serious enough to need dealt with in High Court. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the risk of digging a bigger hole for myself, I was trying to put two pictures into the article - one of Bartley and one of Cochrane (which I note doesn't appear in the article so I can't see if I captioned it Marvin Bartley or not) - and my brain has done something stupid. Who knows, maybe it didn't want Cochrane to feel left out because his picture wasn't appearing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy mistake to make, could have happened to anyone. Its fixed, no harm, no foul. The extra 'm' thing though......... hanging's too good for you really. Next you'll be abbreviating Nottingham Forest using an 's' instead of an 'm'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Sounds like pretty much every club is voting no to the Conference League proposal (going by the number of Club statements on Twitter). Have QoS made their intention public yet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have QoS made their intention public yet? Going by precedent, I'd imagine we'll astutely stand back and wait, to ensure that most clubs are taking a morally appropriate stance, then take the opposite one in a way we can't begin to defend. With a bit of luck, we'll also publicly consult fans first, then completely ignore the virtually unanimous opinion that comes roaring back. Looking forward to it. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[... well, it is close season and there's precious little else to discuss ...] You flit between listing the trivial and the desperately sad and significant. I'm not sure that doing so is serving your purposes that well here. Of course, inserting an extra 'm' in the word 'Doonhamers' is not at all important. It goes beyond spelling though. It demands a mispronunciation that reveals a complete misunderstanding of the term. It still doesn't actually matter when set against events in Ukraine though. I think most of us can get that without the need of your assistance. Edited May 28, 2023 by Monkey Tennis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
