      Glanced at the footie sections of two daily papers this morning, The Sun* and Daily Mail*, and their ratings for all 22 starting players and subs were exactly the same. Judging by the two paragraph review by the Mail and no reference to the game itself, I’m guessing they’re the ones that didn’t send someone to the ground :unsure:

      *Not necessarily rags of my choice, they happened to be in a reception area.

      Very often find exactly the same words in match reports across a spread of papers. Quite often they use agency reports.

          Very clever ;)

          The Daily Mirror’s Monday report of this game was done by James Reynolds and was very detailed, like he was actually there but….he managed to come up with the same ratings as the other two papers mentioned and he had the crowd as 47,342 :huh: The Sun was Ian Gordon, btw, don’t know who was credited by the Mail.

          Go on, explain that then or are you saying that newspapers sometimes tell white lies?
