What a load of rubbish. I don't think you understand what a reporter is.
Are you saying he shouldn't report it? Here are three player/coach interviews about how they're looking forward to a game, but let's not mention the negatives as we wouldn't want to upset those sensitive Bulls fans.
If the T&A bloke (whoever it is doing the job at the time) doesn't report it, people slate him for being up the club's backside. If he does report it, he gets slated for being negative. No chance of winning. But what he SHOULD be doing, is reporting it regardless of whether it's positive or negative, as IT'S HIS JOB. Would you have preferred a separate article saying that those players are attracting interest or have more or less already signed? No, you'd have probably moaned about that too, preferring to bury your head in the sand and pretend it's not happening.
No facts, no quotes? How often does he mention things like that and they turn out to have nothing to them? Not often. Usually it only gets mentioned in those articles if there is some substance to it. It's not like he's Gledhill that just reports every whisper as fact every time someone feeds him some bull.
I much prefer Ross to the previous people in that role. Does his job instead of just repeating whatever Bulls management tell him to. Regardless of how many over-sensitive fans it upsets.
I'm gonna assume you also hate the BBC for reporting about that missing plane? What a set they are, why are they trying to upset everyone?!?!

Errrr, ok?
I have a different opinion to you - it happens from time to time on a public forum. I think you might have over reacted just a tad. Also not sure why you're bringing something like that awful plane crash into this discussion, let's just move on.
