But this doesn't work. Because they read this board.

For example, I'd go for something like:

"It was yet another case of so near but so far, as the Canaries piled on the pressure in the closing minutes but were unable to find the killer touch to equalise Koumas's wonder strike. But Worthington will take plenty of encouragement from the way his injury-weakened side took the game to the high-flying Welshmen."

But now they'll read this, y'see. And find some different cliches instead.
