If that's our form for the rest of the season, I'll be happy. Might even get in the pray-offs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whooooossshhhh Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Sorry Screech, but if you insist on writing long, rambling match reports like this, you're going to lose the readers quite quickly. I would suggest that you try and make them more compact in the future. Good try though, son! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
... Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Some advice for you Screech. If, as you claim, you want a job on the Post as a sports writer, you need to make at least one fairly obvious slight or side-swipe at the club. Admittedly, you say we 'played shit', but you need to be more direct and cutting. Must try harder. TFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoldenBall Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Played shit but won the game. I'm thinking of doing this simplified version of game reviews until the end of the season, hoping to get a job as a Post journalist one day. Not only the post, this applies to world football.. a game can be reviewed in 5 words, yet they make 50 pages out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 All shit....with the exception of Marv who was slightly less shit Thanks. Did someone say they heard the new keeper shouting - that must qualify for a slightly less shit rating as well, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK0wnag3 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 You'll never get a job at the post if you carry on posting your own thoughts in original content. You aren't doing enough copy and pasting from this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Were you even there? Did he have to be there? Assumption should be enough to write a match report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Lewis Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 Thanks. Did someone say they heard the new keeper shouting - that must qualify for a slightly less shit rating as well, surely? No, because he was shouting "mind the shit".

Mad Cyril Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Agree with the need to shorten the content. Your audience dont have time to read beyond 'shit'. Report done, audience informed. for your next write up you may want to get hold of a theasaurus and find another word for shit. Turd. Thats my offering. Can anyone else help the author as he prepares for Tuesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipdawg Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 Did he have to be there? Assumption should be enough to write a match report. To be fair, The Post have been doing that with startling regularity so why shouldn't Screech? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
