Well, this is a first.

How to write an article about an upcoming football match without mentioning one of the teams EVER !

This lass managed it. http://the72.co.uk/55022/is-the-sleeping-giant-about-to-awake-in-sheffield/

Quite remarkable.....

 

I don't know anything about the author, they might be young so don't want to be too harsh, but its very poorly written. And I don't mean the lack of mention of us, just as an article itself.

 

Did you read it properly or just skim read it?

 

I read it properly, why?

Oh you mean the bit about them "being young".

 

Its gotta be a hoax, says the author is Victoria Wood and as we all know she died!

 

Your thinking that they may be young after reading it.

"Sure, I’ve had a season ticket since 1989"

"I’m a middle (cough) twenties woman"

"This Saturday, my Mum and Dad get to take their little (albeit nearly 30) girl to Wembley."

 

That is young to me.

But the reality is when I made critical comment I momentarily forgot about these bits of info.

 

Sorry if I'm about to be Billy no mates again but I didn't think it was that bad, mind you I am border line illiterate, ok maybe fully illiterate, but to not put who the mighty owls( cough, cough) are playing,in the biggest game of her very late twenties life, was unforgivable.... Daft cow !!!!

 

I'm not going to knock it. There have been a lot worse written. Good luck to her.

 

If she's almost 30; say 28 or 29, and has had a season ticket since 1989, then that means from .... err... *finds abacus* about 2 or 3 years old.

 

She is almost 30 in lady years.

 

she's in her 30s, hence the "cough". i don't believe it's the greatest game in their history, but she only knows about a quarter of their history personally. people are allowed to be mistaken.
