Another article on the same site basically saying shut up and stick by him, the paper can’t decide it’s position

Do you think the journalists should all have a meeting in the morning and decide what the paper's position should be on football managers?

Blue Maniac · Jan 18, 2019

Yeah! Their articles are all written by different people! It’s a swindle!

I think they should get their facts right before publishing articles though.

Puel has won more than he has lost with us:

well journalists are supposed to report facts and be impartial informers so shouldn't be giving their opinion at all, that its the job of a columnist

Yeah but apart from getting the key facts on which he based his entire opening argument wrong, pretty solid article.

Columnists are journalists.

so you'd call Jeremy Clarkson a journalist? He used to be but he is just a columnist now and has been a long time. Journalist report and investigate Columnist just write whatever comes to mind, as

M17TT C points out the basic facts this piece was based on is wrong, journalists fact are meant to check before they submit their articles too.

There is a clear distinction to make between the 2, great columnists create conversation great journalists create change.

Wikipedia does: "Jeremy Charles Robert Clarkson (born 11 April 1960)[1] is an English broadcaster, journalist and writer"

OK, maybe not the best source...

How about Collins English dictionary?

"A columnist is a journalist "

Whoever is whatever, it doesn't change the fact that the article is based on shite and is therefore of the aforementioned quality.

What’s your assumption based on? Vardy saying the play doesn’t suit him precisely?

If you were a footballer would you enjoy playing in our team right now?

There. There’s the assumption.

So not based on anything the players have said or done. Just how you’d feel. Gotcha.
(For the record I agree - but devils advocate!)

Those stats are wrong.

I think the actual numbers (league games only) are won 19, lost 20. Maybe someone could double check.

Comprehensive and damning indictment...

Agree with it totally.

Check the other link as it has them all of there.

Either way, the article is still wrong as he has won more games than he has lost with us.

Only if you include cup games. As the article talks about "points per game" it's obvious he's talking about league games.

He's lost more league games than he's won.
