....didn't expect anything else from the BBC,... lazy journalism .......again.

It's not just lazy journalism though, if you read it the Uni spokeperson says it's great news for Sheffield, the Maclaren spokeperson say's theyre delighted to be in Sheffield, there's a bigger picture here...

Headline should be:

McLaren supercar chassis facility to come to Rotherham in £50m deal

And text should read:

The "world-class" facility will be built at the University of Sheffield's Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) in Rotherham.

Rolls Royce are already based there and it says Rotherham on their website.

Also just been on Look North.....no mention of Rotherham whatsoever....

Yes it's in Sheffield !

To be fair the manufacturing centre does have a Sheffield telephone number but people in Bolton/Goldthorpe (Barnsley) have Rotherham ones so that doesn't mean anything.
