theunderstudy Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Dear FAI, A glaring error (see below, highlighted in red) has recently been brought to my attention in regards to the following article published on your website yesterday: ====== Kelly to captain Ireland against Uruguay Monday, 28 March 2011 13:51 Fulham defender Stephen Kelly will captain the Republic of Ireland senior team for the first time when they face Uruguay tomorrow (Tuesday) night in the 3 International friendly at the Aviva Stadium (7.45pm). Keiren Westwood continues in goal, while Kelly will be partnered by Darren O'Dea in central-defence, with Kevin Foley and Ciaran Clarke filling the full-back berths. Across midfield will be Liam Lawrence, Paul Green, Keith Fahey and Andrew Keogh with the striker's berths handed to James McCarthy and Shane Long. REP OF IRELAND: Westwood (Coventry City); Foley (Wolves), O'Dea (Ipswich Town), Kelly (Fulham), Clarke (Aston Villa); Lawrence (Portsmouth), Green (Derby County), Fahey (Birmingham City), Keogh (Bristol City); McCarthy (Wigan Athletic), Long (Reading). ====== As the below picture indicates, someone in your media dept. either has a strange fetish for vowels or is a blithering idiot: As if I haven't got enough to be upset about as an Aston Villa fan this season, I don't need to see arguably our best young player (one who has actually opted to switch national allegiances to yourselves, no less) branded with such unnecessary and heavy-handed vowel usage. Please can you amend your news accordingly and ensure such schoolboy errors do not happen in the future. Yours sincerely, Gareth Roberts pedantic & disgruntled :notworthy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginko Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Interesting email. I just emailed Clark himself to demand that he adds an E on the end of his name. I just think it'd be easier that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbsboots Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Why do people also insist on adding an "e" to his name? It is exactly the same with folk who call ginger McCleish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fran_villa Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I think he was kind of cought out for pace for the 3rd goal. The whole defence has been poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
