Grammar
insist or insists
Hi!
I read the following, and I'm sure it should be 'insists'. Am I correct? Should there also be commas after 'Gretna owner' and 'director of football'?
Thanks
'Gretna owner Brooks Mileson INSIST all team team decisions are down to coach David Irons and not director of football Mick Wadsworth

You're right. The sentence needs the third person singular 'insists'.
Brooks Mileson is one person (the owner of Gretna).
As the sentence is written, no commas are necessary.
EDIT:
Oops, MM's post was a few seconds faster mine.
