BBC Sport Website preview of our match v Glasgow

Post by WirralExile »

Some numpty at the BBC Sport department needs to have the website proof read before hitting submit. I quote "Ed Slater returns from an ankle injury to join the squad and Freddie Burns is also fit, while James Haskell, Jack Clifford and Sam Jones are out injured."

Every now and then the BBC's writers drop absolute howlers.

Yes - it took them a while though!

Someone clearly doesn't check what they are writing before they submit. Something that would never happen on this Forum :smt043
