Liverpool Echo & Everton

Right................... so everton finished 11th..........so where do people expect everton to finish based on club match revenue, general finances player signings etc...... Because i think between 8th and 12th is about right?????????????? So the echo are about right then?????

The gist of the article is that people shouldn't complain. Not whether or not it is accurate/appropriate.

The club can tell them to print whatever. Who cares. The fact is until everton get a modern stadium and or investment they can not compete on a regular basis in the premier league. So what do people want the echo to say? everton are world beaters going to sign rooney, ronaldo and messi?

1. Because it's supposed to be "news", not propaganda.

2. We do compete on a regular basis in the Premier League since its' conception in 1992.

3. We want the Echo to report news, not club-led spin.

They could stop being condescending arse wipes for a start.

No, but... just patronise that other shower we share the city with with non-journalism, for being equally mediocre and despite having spent more.

You're missing the whole point of pretty much everything.
The Echo has a clear bias towards LFC. LFC are 'struggling' because they finished 6th and haven't won a trophy in 3 years. Major questions are being asked of the owners and manager. This is despite massive ground redevelopment currently happening, under the owners watch.

EFC meanwhile have won nothing for 20 years, have a board that doesn't invest in the club, have a board that is tiny, absentee and anonymous, mired in murky less than transparent dealings. They have also been responsible for 2, potentially 3, collapsed stadium moves and 1 collapsed Goodison redevelopment. As a business the club underperforms compared to even minor mid table rivals like Stoke.

The Echo does not question any of this. It does not put pressure or demands on anyone. It is interested in only in preserving its own perks. It has none of the same fears of upsetting the apple cart when it comes to their beloved LFC.

All right Kristian, how's the Echo treating you?

It is the Echo's fault for not questioning why we have no money and why the club is run so poorly.

They scrutinise the running of LFC, they should scrutinise EFC to the same level.

Its there fault they dont question why the idiot running the place is still in a job despite a bunch of horrendous commercial deals and sponsorships and approaching 3 failed ground moves and various projects.

Yet its all fine and dandy in there eyes

We laugh at RAWK for having an "approved" list of acceptable links.

And you would want us to move in that direction?

GOT.....censor free zone

Jarg is jarg.

I am sure @GrandOldTeam considers the ECHO as definitely JARG.

Just look at the twitter posts!

No, but saying we should accept 11th place because of our financial standing is just daft. Especially when we're finishing 11th due to mass under-performing on the players and managers' behalves, not because we haven't got top 4 money.

 

[dave n]

so its the echos fault that big bill has not sold up?
