Pic: LA Galaxy educate and befriend a Chelsea troll who sent them a very angry and funny tweet

A victory for grammar and friendship...

A small victory for grammar and friendship…

The importance of using correct grammar has been drilled into JOE ever since we were young men attending St. JOE’s secondary-school.

Our English teacher, Mr O’Hara, constantly reminded us that a life of misery was awaiting us if we didn’t know the importance and correct usage of an apostrophe.

We will openly admit one, maybe two, grammatical errors have been made on this site over the years.

However, we’re always open to accepting a little guidance just like this Chelsea fan who sent the LA Galaxy some abuse.

It seems that Robbie Keane’s colleagues are not just content with tweeting news about Steven Gerrard’s impending arrival, because they also offer tips on the correct use of an apostrophe.

We love the Galaxy’s calm response to the original tweet and the immediate acceptance of guilt from this Chelsea troll/new friend of the club.

This conversation was brought to our attention by JOE reader Maitiú Costello and it made us laugh.
