    Utterly embarrassing headline from the Scotsman

    Dunfermline 2-0 Hibernian: Double trouble as Thomsons claim Pars victory"

    http://sport.scotsman.com/hibernianf...ble.6838093.jp

    They have obviously done their research in depth for that headline.

    That 'paper' has become a total embarrassment and is dying a slow death, subsidised only by the EEN whose readership will be extinct in 20 years.

    Wind it up now.

    Shambles

    Match report tells of all the goals scored so no fault of the reporter but the sports sub editor responsible for the headline should get his jotters
    This is how it feels

    They did the same last weekend with the rugby, a headline that showed the score as Scotland and Romania drawing 24 all. I'd been away on Fri/Sat so the headline was the first I saw of the game and it wasn't until I was at work on monday and commented how rare a draw in rugby was that I discovered Scotland had won 34-24.

    Apart from the fact that Jason Thomson didn't score their second goal. In every other match report I've read/listened to, that goal's gone down as a Paul Hanlon own goal.

    Once a proud newspaper now a joke of a rag/comic.
    Circulation sinking without trace so seriously biased in its politics would have been quite at home in Nazi Germany!

    I wish they had made the mistake in our favour - it would be good for confidence!

    Well "Yahoo" can't seem to get it right either - According to them, we're still waiting for our first victory of the season.

    Sad to see the paper in such poor state. Their website is an embarassment, they make money out of the PMT driven tribalism between adolescent football fans giving the world an insight into the thoughts of those unfortunate enough to have bypassed the education system.
    Tomorrow will be a good example of how poor their website is. They will have an OF match report and an article with analysis. Both will be locked for comments which means that other threads will be hijacked with OF fans slagging off each other.

    The same could be said for all papers.

    It's such a contentious thread, passions running so high, it's perhaps inevitable that it would descend into personal attacks and name calling.

    Maybe we could arrange for the sub-ed to 'win' us a game J. Probably our best hope at the moment. ;)
