Thread: Daily Telegraph article today

  1. #1

    Daily Telegraph article today

    Just read the article by Neil Cordy on Toy Greene taking Folau's guernsey no. 4 and there is reference to Sydney Swans player no. 4 MATT Hannebery. Aren't these articles proof read?

    Why let a little thing like accuracy get in the way of blithering trash?

    Daily Telegraph article today

    I quite like Greene, bit of mongrel in him. Was dirty on him in the second Derby when he did something I didn't like. Can't remember what exactly though hrm

    Pot. Kettle. Black. Toy? We can have a lot of fun with this Y.

    I have twittered a "please explain" to Neil Cordy too.

    Yeah, strange that Cordy would get this wrong.

    Hanners' father is Matt and played for Footscray, as did Cordy, although I'm not sure if they ever played together.

    Quite possibly just a sub-concious mistake by Cordy and the proof reader wouldn't know @@@@ from clay and didn't know the difference...

    Cordy has tweeted his embarrassment, and you were right 3B. He also played with Bruce Reid, so watch this space!

    He did indeed tweet an apology but it should have been picked up by him or someone else prior to publication.

    Pot, kettle, black, glass houses, stones....this is getting out of hand. Prim's comment on Twitter bagging Cordy's mistake twice misspelt Hannebery.

    Probably time for everyone to step back on this one..seems like an innocent flashback from Cordy.
