Quote: tvoc "Someone earlier used the phrase 'not entirely true.'
To state Williams went from Leeds to Salford via Newcastle RU is true but for it to be entirely true ought it to include the other club he stopped off at on route? Or is the expurgated version now acceptable.'"
The hair-splitting continues.
That would be me then who used the phrase "not entirely true".
But the phrase "not entirely true" referred to the original assertion that those players went into championship football not to my subsequent statement about Danny Williams' journey.
I will repeat that I never claimed anywhere that he went directly from Newcastle to Salford.
"Via" is not an exclusive term, it simply means "by way of".
When I'm wrong I find it much easier to simply admit that.
Something I've done countless times elsewhere on this site, generally when my error has been pointed out by yourself.
You seem to find it much harder to do the same.
I value your contributions on here but you do it seems to me always have to prove that you are in the right.
