Still not good enough
It’s up to the family to announce a death, not some 2 bit wanna be
He's said sorry, although he should really know better than to trust very dodgy sources like Twitter, Facebook and a certain Football Forum, as should plenty of our supporters who seemed compliant in rumours from some very dodgy characters. I think that some people can't hold back and think before they post it seems.
Thought he was a decent journo when I used to buy the echo (well better than some anyway) and I took his tribute, as did others, to be a pretty reliable source.
However, to write something like this without doing the necessary legwork is as bad as it gets for a journalist.
I doubt this "very reliable source" Mr Phillips refers to will be considered very reliable in future by him.
Anything the man himself writes in the future will be treated likewise which I am sure will hurt the bloke as much as those he misled in his piece.
Tony I appreciate your comments and actually agree with you to some extent but for many he will feel like part of the family. My mrs actually burst into tears when she heard the rumours.
People have a need to know and as much as it’s not right as you have said, it’s natural to speculate
That is why Terry Phillips is a 2 bit journalist
"I was told by a reliable source" - his reliable sources used to get him into all sorts of bother when he was writing for the SWE. Now he is writing for a shit web-site. and I am happy to type this because he reads this board. What sort of jumped up prat, claiming to be an experienced journalist, makes a mistake like he has?
Who is Terry Phillips anyway?
Shut your blog down Mr Phillip's as a mark of respect
Very poor journalists skills.
Thank god we have TOBW excellent site Mauve n yellow .
May I respectively suggest we ( all ) not open up a DaiSport link again ?
Bloody embarrassing.
All you slagging off Terry Philips, If you knew who the source was that gave him the info, then you would definitely say that it was one that could have been believed, sad to say it was not.
about 60 or 70 of us yesterday made right tw@ts out of ourselves.
we should know better by now
wait for a proper announcement
