This thread has been resurrected from the beginning of June. Get a grip, IT. The new football season is virtually underway.

You're right. I should have started a new one.

You already know it's going to be inaccurate, it's the Daily Mail...

Unless you just enjoy self-flagellation, so to speak?

Just because i read something shitting on the Mail doesn't mean I automatically believe it. I find it interesting how the Daily Mail can be respected by millions of people while being this kind of **** at doing journalism.

It also interests me how you lot are instinctively criticising me for mentioning it but not the Daily Mail for actually doing it. It's as if to you lot the people who are talking about the problem are the problem.

Amazes me how many of the older generation seem to read that rag and believe what it says. My workplace is full of them. Although like The Sun it seems mostly to be bought because of the sports pages which are better than other papers. Then the filth they peddle gets read after but they believe it

I think the initial why read it was aimed at dermot dermot and not you IT. May be wrong but think you are getting a little defnsive for no reason

We know what they do, which is why it's taken with a large pinch of salt.
It's the most read English online news outlet in the world though isn't it?
Despite it being full of inaccuracies.

It was aimed at Turtle, Dermot's comment appeared before mine.

I have to say a couple of us at work do read the online version. Not the articles...we skip that and go straight to the comments section. Fascinating reading every time

Yeah there are some bizarre comments and I'm guilty of doing the same thing.

Pick a headline and dive straight in.
