Maquisard If you search Google for Eamonn Dolan, the info panel about him has a picture of Brian McDermott *sigh*


Must have spotted all the articles about his chemo...

From the match preview on the BBC
"Reading may add on-loan Spanish midfielder Alex Hernandez to their squad"

Also referred to as Hernandez on this very site:

"After a very busy summer in the transfer market, the Royals have added Spanish midfielder Alex Hernandez to the squad this week after he arrived on loan from Espanyol. Hernandez is due to stay for the rest of the season and joins winger Paolo Hurtado looking to earn a first appearance in the blue and white hoops - See more at: http://www.royals.org/news/429/Royals_F ... Xx2WD.dpuf"

Now I am doubting he is actually called Fernandez...

"Some fine play from Reading is rewarded as Danny Williams blocked shot is latched onto by Adam McCleary who rifles the ball into the net from close range."

On the signing of Vydra:

Reading’s newboy also had the opportunity to join both Fulham and table-toppers Brighton, but was impressed by the ambition shown by co-owner Anton Zingarevich. The Berkshire outfit faced a similar position to Vydra’s parent club, also scoring just twice in their opening four games before an impressive 3-1 victory away at Brentford, so a move is likely to suit all three parties.

More specific than the media thread, just BBC bias here.

So on BBC page for the League Cup, and guess which game is not highlighted for a report on the main page, even when you hit more.

Feel free to highlight further BBC errors and omissions as the season goes on.

Should there not also be a specific thread for highlighting errors by SKY, ITV, Channel 5, BT Sport, Evening Post, TalkSport, Daily Mirror, Daily Mail, The Times, Sunday Sport, Ian Royal etc. just for the sake of balance?

You want to try the Telegraph.
The match report runs to about 7 paragraphs. The word Reading appears once and the only mention of what we did is one sentence.

no, really, no.

W8ing for Woodcote to come in on this one. A year or so ago (I promise this is true) he posited that the BBC do not like RFC and overlook our achievements because the town is Tory territory. Instead the BBC favours Northern (Labour) clubs.

That's unusual, you don't normally see Tories coming up with paranoid conspiracy theories about BBC bias.
