Exactly. Not what the Sun said.
Ah, I see Spoonz has answered.

The sun article says he is 20, although does refer to him as a forward

I think the Sun may have amended his age in the article, although without making it clear they've done so or acknowledging their original mistake.

Never buy the Sun after Hillsborough don't think many copies are sold on Merseyside.

What can you expect from a rag like that anyway?

Definitely said 33 in the first instance. Quick editing.

Egg spotted the lazy journalism first. See post #281

The article originally stated Diabate was aged 33. This appears to have been amended since.

Who can spot the other error still in the article that clearly refers to a 33 year old player of exactly the same name ?

Already spotted by Snoopers in referring to a forward.

Why? Genuine question.
All answered now I think Snoopers

Indeed. They still have a sign up in the Tranmere marquee bar in the car park about not buying the Sun.
