Yes a :censored: up by someone in BT sports but to say that the person responsible should be sacked is a disgrace, Just remember that the person who made the mistake probably has a wife and family to support and to ask for someone to be sacked for something so trivial Is pathetic.

I agree, it is shockingly bad from the organisation, but an article for a company like that surely needs multiple people (editor's etc) to review and authorize. The company need to take collective responsibility apologise and put in procedures to prevent a repeat.
A premature firing of a person who made a mistake does not fix the issue or the root cause.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Anymore popcorn today? I’ve still got Lewis, Lavanini and Taufua on my list that need ticking off! 😀

I hope so. After all the ones we already knew about, it'd be nice to get the odd pleasant surprise!

I agree 'the person responsible' (if there was 'a' single person) shouldn't be fired - for all the reasons you give. 'The person' probably knows as much about rugby as they do about World Fly Fishing Champions and probably wouldn't know the difference between Dane Cole and Dan Cole. They probably downloaded the photo from a bank of photos that had been labelled inaccurately. However it isn't trivial - its symptomatic.

Only the club knows and as always we just have to be patient and wait to be told.
Without hope we are nothing, keep the faith, a Tiger for eternity
