  1. My Email
    Subject: Hume on the Mend Article Message: HelloI have a complaint about the following article. "Barnsley striker Iain Hume is making good progress in his recovery fromthe serious head injury he suffered in November, the club haveconfirmed.The Canada international sustained a fractured skull in a collision withSheffield United's Chris Morgan and was treated in a high dependencyunit in hospital.Reds physiotherapist Matt Konopinski told the club's website: "Iain wentfor his scan last Friday and we have an appointment with the specialistnext week where we will go through things."That will give us the opportunity to plan out the final parts of Iain'srecovery."Iain is coming into Oakwell two or three times a week to do some workand he is looking bright." You choose to use the word 'collision' in the article with Sheff UtdsChris Morgan, why is this. You could of used assault, horrificcollision with Chris Morgans elbow, collision with thugs elbow, GBH on afootball pitch. Any more phrases i would be happy to help. Could youplease write the stories correct in future, thisw would be appreciatedby me and 12000 other Barnsley fans Website posted from: The Star

    Response: Fair point Darren, thanks. This was Press Association material, but weshould have spotted that, Thanks again.

    Can confirm that the article did come directly from the Press Association. It was copied word for word (doh).

     
  3. I copy and pasted the article from the online version on the star website and i suppose they got it from the press assocation,

    Sent mine 8.30 last night

    Must have been too complicated for them. Having seen the standard answers the others have got, that wouldn't have fitted mine. I'll post the reply on here when/if it comes.
