[QUOTE="Yoshimitsu, post: 789232, member: 71899"] [b]Not sure that was the point?[/b] I think they took umbrage at the "France lost to...." bit which whilst true does spin differently even to "France were beaten by". " lost to" suggests passivity and allowance. I don't think they were complaining at all about reporting the championship win, just a small belittling of a very good Scottish performance. Fwiw I read the article and thought the same thing as an Englishman. [/QUOTE]
