Well currently the stats in terms over overall votes are Biased towards Reds 43 (total), Biased towards Blues 2 (total). Of which 9 believe or have provided evidence of the bias.


But of course, mere inspection of all the platforms the ECHO posts over, they preferentially cater to a RS audience where ever possible.

On behalf of Evertonians, let me apologise to the ECHO for us being in Liverpool and therefore forcing you to report on us at all. It's obviously an inconvienience to you.

Sorry we were here first. The originals. 1878.

But lets not let history cloud things.

Lets leave you to the RS love in. With '000s of LFC stories to 1 or 2 EFC stories (that you obviously don't want to publish anyway). Despite the audience for Everton being in the millions worldwide.

THE REDSHITE ECHO you'll forever be known as. It's well deserved.

Tbh, if they've got stories about the [Poor language removed] going down the shitter, I'm going to buy it for the craic anyway.
 
I've always thought the Echo was biased towards being a steaming pile of shoite. One of the best things about the internet is being able to click directly on Everton related links
 

I remember when the animals played Juve a few years back that rag had 'things to say to our itai visitors in their lingo' like welcome to teh city etc as well as 'everton and torino are rubbish arnt thee' it wound me up at the time imagine the armchair complaints if it was a comment about them tramps and then to top it all off they tried to offer hand o friendship to which the juve fans turnd their backs to them and the kopite rats booed them all game for it ye just couldn't make it up very short memories indeed the dirty scumbags
 
Is that Danny popcorning them? Fantastic work.

Do me a favour someone and link them this, with regards from azul.

Ten pages of coverage and thankfully they acknowledge that a little girl was starving herself to death in the top corner.

Oh, and they were dead wrong. Shithouse of a paper.

Look how many pages they dedicated to it - i bought the job echo last week, it was like a obituary to them.
 
I date from Mike Charters following us and Chris James following them. Late 70s they covered the games. Proper local journos, not the bought and paid for whores that trot out the company line we have now.

Remember the match reports in the pink when the goal action text turned to bold and your heart started racing getting to it? :lol:

Thank you for that Dave filling in the gaps, must be getting old not remembering those names. Bit back then it was a proper football reporting paper.
