I have been asking the same question of Ian Herbert (chief sportswriter at The Independent) on Twitter tonight, but haven't had a satisfactory response as yet.
I think the problem lies in the fact that Ric didn't call him a ****, to nice for his own good at times :)His response to your question, with tiresome predictability, is a complete non-sequitur.
Also, presumably he means "cited by me".
It's a start I guess but I'll believe it when they report the Sterling fee as £44m that may rise to £49m. The BBC, sadly, appears to have enthusiastically joined the race to the bottom in football reporting.BBC news are now reporting the Martial transfer as £36 million that may rise to £58.
Maybe people pointing out the bias in the press is beginning to have an affect.
