Read the Book

I suggest you read the book by my friend Mr Shawcroft as any Derby fan will instead of this turgid claptrap. This is the result of far too much time on your underemployed hands. 75000 edits I believe and that's only Claptrap BlackjackEaKapake (talk) 09:57, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It would be interesting to have details of this book but unfortunately this person is extremely childish in his approach and so it is unlikely that a mature response will be forthcoming. If there are problems with the article, the editor can always improve it himself, except that his standard of written English is clearly very poor. Alternatively, he should send a polite request to User:Motmit, who wrote the article. It really is a shame that people have to be so childish but there we are. More On R.
