That's what people do now, esp. UK press.
But it's not an exception. It's a mistake.
Manchester United Football Club. Club = singular. Therefore, it is more proper to write "Manchester United was defeated"

It's old slang in the States, but I'm not sure it means the same thing.
Usually used when someone got yelled at/disciplined.
"Joey got reemed by his parents for showing up late."

Wrong!WRONG!back of the class
the plural is used to reflect the fact it's a collective noun
With that logic, any collective noun would get a plural.
The class were listening to the teacher
The team were playing on the pitch
The nation were going to war.
All wrong!

Im agreeing with Ollie on this mate. It might be different the other side of the Pond but in the Queens English it were imo.
A Team is made up from more than 1 person as is a nation and a class so they get a plural
they all sound wrong in your accent mate!!!

No no no. I'm protecting the Queen's English. You young Brits are corrupting it!
Case in point: "were" in your sentence above should be "is"
Tell me about it. It doesn't sound much better in your Plazzy Scouce either
People who use "they" instead of "their" .
"They self" - OH **** OFF YOU INCORRECT BASTARD
You say Posh I say Plastic. Where's your chinos?

chinos are all packed and ready for my trip to London in August......
