Sun apologies for Bendtner quotes
Sun apologies for Bendtner quotes
Before reading the below, can I suggest to those who jumped on Bendtners back on this take the following friendly advice in future:
Dont take what The Sun newspaper writes as truth even if you dont like the player in question
From Mediawatch on F365
Readers who a) regularly visit this page and b) can remember back as far as February, will recall that Mediawatch took The Daily Mirror to task over their 'misinterpretation' of some quotes from Nicklas Bendtner.
Just to refresh your memories, here is the way the paper reported his words on February 16: "I should start every game, I should be playing every minute of every match and always be in the team."
And here's how Mediawatch's Babelfish aided translation differed: "I still believe that when I play to my best, I will play from the start no matter who is ready or injured and each time I try to show that I should play from the start."
Therefore, we were delighted to read in this morning's edition of the paper, the following:
'On 16 February, under the headline: 'Big 'Ead Bendtner', we quoted Nicklas Bendtner from an interview given to a Danish newspaper as saying: "I should start every game, I should be playing every minute of every match and always be in the team."
'Nicklas Bendtner actually said: "I constantly belive that when I am in my best playing form then I should play from the start, whoever is ready or injured."
'We are happy to make this clear and regret any misunderstanding.'
In these stringent economic times, we would suggest the Mirror gets rid of their resident Danish translator and in future sticks to the cheaper, online alternative.

I never take what The Sun says as truth . . . Unfortunately this report is about The Daily Mirror:
