The Mockery Makes A Mockery

[Matt_B]

The Mockery is generally shit. This time it has reached a new low for me.

The article at http://www.thisisleicestershire.co....City-manager/story-13732381-detail/story.html is titled "Bookies say it is a two horse race" and then go on to use the line "The bookies see it as a three-horse race". They finish the article with the line "There is still no clear time-scale as to when the appointment will be made, but City maylike the new man in charge for the home game against Leeds on Sunday."

May they? How on Earth can a large publication publish such shit? It actually makes me mad because people like my grandparents have no other means of accessing the information (no internet) about LCFC and this is what they have to make their judgements on. No wonder we have many moronic fan views.

Larger publications than the Mockery publish complete shite with no compunction whatsoever. Why should the Mockery be any different? If you assume than everything in a newspaper,apart from the price, is bullshit you won't go far wrong.

Just matches everything online I've read on the topic.

It's an in-joke.

Its a mockery of a sham, a sham of a mockery, and a mockery of a sham

...and today the window lickers get the headline wrong ''Paul Gallagher says nobody would down Leicester City job''.

Thick as pig swill...

If it was a drink, I wouldn't down it either - probably tastes a bit sour and stale.

Today's ''guess the missing word'' game played by the Mercury...

"You're Questions, Danns Answers"

Magnificent stuff

Although a true pedantisistian might point out that is the OS, rather than the Mockery, but hey ho

Nice to see that it's not just the OS and the Mockery that gets it wrong .....

From the BBC

• Nigel Pearson retakes the managerial reins, just under three and a half years since leaving the club. In his previous two seasons, Pearson took Leicester back to the Championship, winning 55, drawing 30 and losing 22 of 107 league and cup matches

Yeah I noticed that when I read it last night and thought duuuuhhhhhh.
Do they not check the info before it goes to print/on the net.
