It’s always nice to see a red-top have to admit to yet another bogus story.

Manchester United youngster Tom Cleverley is the latest celeb to get caught up in a totally inaccurate exclusive, after The Sun claimed that the footballer “begged” some girl for sex in a nightclub.

Alas, for The Sun, it transpires that the horny chap in question wasn’t the famous footballer at all, but rather just a bloke who was pretending to be the United star as he apparently looks like him.

Not so Clever-ley now, eh!

    They should apologise for something else too.

    Other than their existence you mean? All the racist shite they’ve written since the Falkland Wars, or all the lies they have printed throughout their history?

    I feckin’ hate the Sun, I feckin hate when people use it as a ‘source’ when reporting some transfer rumour or news. I feckin hate it, because it has come to be synonymous with all the shite that journalists will print, because pricks like Murdoch will pay them to make things up. I feckin’ hate the sun and I’m not even a Liverpool supporter.

    @Montesquieu You took the words right out of my mouth man, although this blog-article is pointing out a flaw, I have caught the WAATP editors quoting/crediting The Sun in various articles and have communicated to Chris Wright that it discredits anything he writes to say “source: the Sun” in parentheses after it. I love this site but it hurts me whenever they use Britain’s National Tabloid as an official source.

    I bet this apology is hidden miles away at the back of their website
