Accounts may not match up. That does not mean they contradict each other. A contradiction would be:

Matthew saying Jesus was crucified by Himself and Luke saying Jesus was crucified with two thieves.

That would be a contradiction.

Matthew could say Jesus was crucified with two other thieves and Luke could say that Jesus was crucified.

That is not a contradiction. Luke not mentioning the two thieves is him not mentioning the two thieves. That is it.

Of course I used those as examples.
So they were just shite at documenting then?

Documenting the most earth shattering, history defining, humanity changing moment in earth's existence?

They leave out a few things do they? Cut some corners? Get a bit fuzzy with the details?

Bloody hell.
