No, the quality did used to be much better

when there were more people. They used to have people whose sole job was to proof read. Now they're even getting rid of subs and reporters will post straight to the web. Shit and inaccurate copy ahoy.

The scoreboard thing? Bit naff. But I object to the opportunist adverts from an ambulance-chasing solicitor being flashed up as soon as a player goes down injured. Especially when the injury in question rules one of our best players out for the season. Yeah, let's make a joke of it injuries and sell an advert on the back of them. That does actually disgust me (a bit).
