You obviously found the bug, so you should be able to find the bad/misleading use of English in your corrected version of the sentence in question.
'Neither use of those commas is correct.' Although it's certainly not a construct I would ever use, I cannot for the life of me see what you're talking about. Pleeease, pretty please with (k)nobs on, enlighten me. Are there some asterisks, or even asterixes, missing? Not that I'm obsessive or owt, like.

I can't see any other issues with the correction.

In GLP's original post there were two commas used. Each was in a separate sentence. Both commas were unnecessary. That bit Cortez picked up on and made a statement.

Your correction to Cortez's sentence should have been either:

a) Neither use of the comma is correct
or
b) The use of those commas is incorrect.

NOT "Neither use of those commas is correct.", because two adjacent commas were not used.

Brilliant name. He is only 5 ft 11 so that's fairly short for a keeper. Let's sign Olie The Goalie, it's also a brilliant name.
i would not pay for the name on a shirt but i could use his first 3 letters and have Sin and the other guy on here could have first three letters of last name Hat

Did you see i deliberately left the full stop off watch me get killed on here now.
 
Snodgrass says he'll be able to play again in 5 weeks. Even if it takes a month or 2 to get up to speed that's a massive boost. Like a new signing
 
We could start a group small goals till i die,try to help him out a bit?.
That would be hilarious. He was an amazing keeper, played forever for us, even fought the other goalie once who was the best man at his wedding. He was a lot like Dawson for us in that respect, gave his all for the club and basically his entire career. Just the type of player that we should be looking to sign, someone young who is incredibly loyal.

He'd need to be his own agent in that case.
