You can squeeze a Chelsea in there too if that makes any difference! Very sensible to have a plan B but im not sure Eton and the Daily Hate are the avenue for such a story.
Good lad.
We've all done it
Snidey remark.
Was it in the same day ?
Quite.
Not at my age
Funnily enough the person in question DIDN'T do it - Isabelle Oakshitt made it all for a bit of book promo.

I think the point they're making is that finishing second is actually very good, so the fact that he was so upset about it shows what high standards he has for himself. If they harboured nasty attitudes towards him they probably wouldn't have published the article at all highlighting his ability and potential.
I'd hate to be a kid turning up from a working class background at Eton. I was offered a place at a prestigious private school as a youngster. I'm so glad my parents turned it down. Especially given my experience at a cricket club at that time.
They can't win, can they. If they don't write the story, it'll be taken as evidence of how nasty they are, but when they do write it people are still not happy.
