It's annoying to be ignored - and very sloppy journalism not to even mention us when we are clearly in with a chance.

What he said - that's just what i thought when I read the article yesterday!!

At least the reporter in the mail can string a sentence together.
Please tell me that our resident celeb scribe was trying to be funny with the headline with some sort of reference to shearing sheep as opposed to a complete spelling abhorration preceded by a random comma.

The fact that the story credits "Sportsmail reporter" rather than one of their named writers suggests that this was an online-only story unless anyone saw it in the main rag? Most papers' websites are put together by office people who aren't good enough to be on the road themselves. If it had been Laura Williamson, Matt Barlow or one of their other proper writers then we'd have cause for complaint.

Correct, Paul Hayward did once work for the Fail. Some people will do anything for money (and before you say it, yes, I am just jealous).

The comma is ridiculous, but I like the pun.

Ahem. Spelling aberration.

[Please don't let this be a mistake!]

"Hull have the division's best unbeaten run: 11 games."

Assuming they mean League games, I don't think that's true.

Love being underrated at this stage. No pressure then when we storm to Wembley.

I think it was in the paper - that's what the OP said, anyway. Surprised by the lack of a by-line though.
