Spot The Difference

 

Opened Adam Fraser's opinion piece on Alan Shearer, published on Football365 on June 20:

 

'As a footballer, Alan Shearer played his cards close to his chest. Closer than his elbows, anyway.'

 

Opened David Prentice's opinion piece on Alan Shearer, published in the Liverpool Echo on June 22:

 

'As a player, Alan Shearer kept his cards close to his chest. A lot closer than his elbows, anyway.'

 

Having read the rest of both articles (or, more correctly, the same one twice) Mediawatch feels it should pass on the same message our teachers were so keen to beat into us in school: changing one word in every five is still copying, David.
