Everton Crest Reminder

[GrandOldTeam]

Just a polite reminder to all to refrain from using the Everton crest on GrandOldTeam.

We're not allowed to have it displayed anywhere on the website;

Our client has highlighted Player/Match Action Images, Club Crests and Fixtures among the posts and as member’s avatar’s in your forum http://www.grandoldteam.com/forum

I understand that due to the huge number of posts the tracking and removing of infringing images would prove difficult and very time consuming to perform.

A suggestion I have made with other football forums, is that when you do come across new images please take steps to remove them, but I would be grateful if you could post a message to members warning them of the issues in question.

Thanks.

Are we actually allowed to say "Everton", surprised that they haven't put a stop to that as well.

Hereforth it will be referred to as E***t**n.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Theres a very very very small one in that Paddy Power advert. Call the cyber police!

Is it just the present day crest that is the preserve of Ever*** plc. or are all the 'arl ones banned as well ?

such as this one

image used for clarification purposes only.


I take it that they don't object to the use of 'The Peoples Club' as they have no legal right to.

Just realised my avatar has one in, better take it off.

To keep things simple Reidy, we'd prefer if fans avoided using the crest in its entirety in any form.

Most will know the crest hasn't been permitted on GrandOldTeam for a long time, this is just a reminder as I've noticed the crest sneaking back on to the website.

Lets avoid the debate, that's just the way it is.

So we are not allowed to use the Everton crest on an Everton forum?

 

[Reidy's Bottle Of Grecian]

there is also the matter of.....

a paid for download from the club, those mobie things that rotate etc, surely if you have bought it then you can display it ?

Wouldn't be surprised if this does happen!

Who sets these rules by the way?

 

[Rubin_Carter]

What legal ramifications if an upside down version appears? Or will those at 'Clive' HQ see their backside then as well?

 

[heatmeiser]

I prefer this one anyway.
