Either you all think it doesn't matter that our local paper continues to get basic facts wrong about our local team, or you don't think the Visitor counts for much these days anyway.
Or perhaps you didn't give it long enough? From 9:30pm to 9:00am the following day, the forum isn't that busy. Another reason for no responses may be that you simply stated a fact and left no invitation for a response? If you'd followed the fact with your opinion, you may have opened up a debate?
But to be honest, I think you were right,
"...you don't think the Visitor counts for much these days anyway". It must break the hearts of those who worked on the paper in previous years. Sadly Johnston Press have raped and pillaged their way through local newspapers throughout the country and left many of them a mere shadow of their former selves. I don't even look at the web site any more.
