    In hindsight this report adds more depth than previous reports. He's clearly taken time to produce such a detailed analysis, but yet also summed up all the key moments of the match perfectly. I think he's getting better, there's clearly progress being made and the performances are getting better.

    A literary gem like this needs modifying from a grammatical perspective. Bear in mind that 'and' is a conjunction and shpuldn't be used to start a sentence. Speech quotations need a speech or punctuation marks. Too much repetition of a phrase or word is a concern and exclamation marks can be used.

    With that in mind I have corrected your post -- (the best post of the month!)

    To the referee I say "F**k off!" When you get there f**k off from there as well. Then f**k off more and keep on f***ing off.

    I hate to be pedantic but that correction isn't right. The quotation marks should be round the first and last bit of speech.

    To the referee I say "F**k off! When you get there f**k off from there as well. Then f**k off more and keep on f***ing off. "

    Bossman's Miner Report. You could add some updates on deep / open cast mining alongside a brief match report. Just a thought.

    That would be a separate thread I think. Fracking hell, on & off the pitch.

    Flipping 'eck @Bossman 's workload is going through the roof here. He's going to be recruiting for junior reporters at this rate :);)

    Or combine the two...
    "Woodrow has hit a rich seam of form."
    "Anderson dug himself out of a hole there."
    "Midfield far too deep."
    "We were shafted by the referee."
