| Sorry for being pathetically pedantic, but when referring to something which technically "belongs" to someone - i.e Huddersfield's pack, it's "their" not "there". I've bit my tongue for quite a while on here, but the grammar and spelling at times on here is pretty shocking! Worst offender seems to be statements including "should of" as in "they should of done this" etc - Surely there must be more people out there that know this should read "should have" or "should've" and that "should of" doesn't exist???!!!
Sorry - I'll no doubt get shot down royally for this, but what can I do - I'm a teacher - it's my job to educate  On a serious note though, I always think that poor spelling and grammar undermines the effectiveness of a post.
On a less academic note, whislt I suppose poor spelling and grammar can be tolerated given the country wide state of education over the past decade or so, I can't understand how people who claim to be fans of a team can spell players' names incorrecty! The number of times for example that I've both heard and read the name "Burrows" is amazing - where the hell do people keep getting the "s" from?

| Perhaps, but the fact that so many people don't give the first damn about spelling nowadays is one of many contributing factors to the undeniable fact that this country has gone severely downhill over the past 10 years or so - but hey, for those happy to remain blissfully ignorant or completely carefree re their lack of ability to write coherently and accurately that's their choice - not one I'd make, but then again we all have different standards

Undeniable fact, how do you come to that conclusion?

This country has gone downhill thanks to a failing political and monetary system. The bailout that’s currently going on is nothing more than a ticking time bomb that will lead us back to where we currently are. To say that spelling is the cause of this country downfall you are clearly deluded.

Tell you what.....
You should have tried proof reading the efforts of "the oracle" last season. It turned a simple 5 minute job into a 45 minute job.
