The Herald getting worse!

If you read that transcript, Derek Adams doesn't even sound annoyed. He's had far terser exchanges with the media.

The way the Herald have presented it is mischievous. No wonder Adams doesn't have much respect for them with headlines like that.

The industry must have scraped through the bottom of the barrel by now. I wish they would at least try to have some standards but this is the way things are going in mass-media unfortunately.

That headline and story is pathetic. Just when you think the Herald couldn't stoop so low.

People born in the old Freedom Fields Hospital could possibly meet a Tall Dark Handsome Stranger, according to one time Celebrity Mystic Meg.

Man finds pen in Argos, luckily CCTV Cameras captured the moment it was dropped.

Man relives lost pen ordeal exclusively to the Herald.

There's no defending that, that is truly horrendous.

It doesn't even reference Football Manager in the headline or sub-headline, it reads simply 'Derek Adams to leave Plymouth Argyle at Christmas time'.

I think that warrants some sort of complaint, possibly from Argyle themselves!

Has some kind of stand off opened up between Adams and the Herald?
It may have started last week when Adams was annoyed with the questions from one of the junior journos and now today's 'story' that undermines Adams.

Chris Errington is caught in the middle and we need him for the proper Argyle articles.

Media day at Home Park today will be interesting.

On a number of occasions in the past I have expressed my view that the Herald is just a tacky rag constructed by tacky journalists. If it were to cease trading it would be no loss to the city or in particular Argyle. My previous views have been berated on here perhaps this further example of inept and deliberately misleading journalism will enable some to understand my previous posts.

Many many older folk love the Herald dropping through the door, it's part of their lives.

Just because some pre pubescent troll writes crap about Argyle doesn't mean it should close down.

Plus, think about the job losses.

Because I think it needs to be seen to be believed. And also, I think providing sources if you use a direct quote is a thing on here.

I guess they're happy as long as they're getting hits which is an unfortunate side-product of me raising the article on here. Perhaps we should write to the Herald or something, to let them know that all hits aren't necessarily good hits.
