Noticed on SSN following the Barnsley game that some bloke called 'Karacen' scored two for us.

Did anybody notice the amazingly bad mispronunciations of about half the Reading squad by the Peterborough PA man?

Jimmy "Key-Bea" was one of them.

Listening to Radio Five this morning and the sports news summariser (Jenny something-or-other) states :
"And in the Championship, if West Ham avoid defeat they'll go up to second and back in the automatic places" :shock:

I heard this too. Unbelievable.

It's as if someone asked who they were playing, and when Reading was the answer, they assumed that we must be below them. simply shocking, and for the BBC, laziness of the highest order.

But it is genuinely worse than that, isn't it. Even if missy couldn't work out that a draw would give Reading a point too, and even if she didn't realise WHU were playing Reading, she still assumed that whoever were above WHU would lose.

Lazy ? - comatose more like

I rang in to 5Live - managed to get answered and was asked what I wanted to say on the Danny Baker show - the researcher sounded a bit miffed when all I wanted was to point out their crap headlines. Notice that the item was dropped completely from the next two updates.

OS



Reading: Federici; Cummings, Harte, Gorkss, Pearce; Karacan, Leigertwood, Kebe, McAnuff; Hunt, Roberts http://rdng.co/H9pDRL #readingfc[/quote]

He replaces Benik Afobe, who moves to the bench. Adam Le Fondre and Mikkel Andersen are injured so Tomasz Cywka and Alex McCarthy are on the bench.

Reading (4-4-2): Federici; Cummings, Harte, Gorkss, Pearce; Karacan, Leigertwood, Kebe, McAnuff; Hunt, Roberts

Journalism is shit when it comes to football in general.

On that note the picture of Adam Federici in the West Ham programme was of the Peterborough keeper.

Then Doncaster game never happened ..?

by Dylan D'oh » 14 Apr 2012 22:33

Football league prog on bbc says RFC haven't drawn in last 28 games, since October last year.

Now this could of course be a one off oversight.

But mysteriously a month or so ago on either bbc Berkshire or 107 said exactly the same ...and that was only a week after the Doncaster game.
