That article was written by the PA, too, so it's not blog-written guff.

The headline obviously confuses Barrow's record in the cup with ours, but the intro to the article reads correctly.

Yep, looks like PA has it correct but the headline writers (presumably at ESPN) have just scanned the opening paragraph and got the wrong end of the stick.

Wouldn't call it pathetic journalism, just an error.

Subs have a hard enough job deciphering journalists' garbled musings.

Lay off the subs. It seems most newspapers have already misread that sentiment.

Ditto (in a fashion), but very much a sub first.

Superb. You're right about newspapers, too.
