Are you surprised by any of this, rebel?
From last Saturday's *Irish* Examiner:
'Shels had the final say as Russell walked the ball into the net to make it an incredible 6-4'
Russell, of course, is the Bohs keeper... :D

I will say this though guys...it is not always the journalists fault. Editors and others have changed things incorrectly in the past... but someof the journalists around are gob****es.

niamh, ALL editors are infallible :D
You make a good point, but I doubt if any editor had much input or interest in the Russell faux pas...

At least they got the score right, Monaghan-UCD was universally reported as 1-3 when the score was 1-4.
