Topic: Liverpool FC ban the *** from Anfield and Melwood.

[sms1986]

I have to say I am a little bit cynical about the club's motives for doing this now.

The reason has already been linked in this thread - http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/sn-liverpool-took-28-years-12587844.

As mentioned by others, very surprised to see this wasn't the case already. Way, way overdue. Disappointing that it wasn't enforced sooner but happy that we won't see any of their scumbags at our ground now.

[idontknow]

The difference between the S*n and any other atrocity is they aren't sorry. They weren't sorry in 1989 and they sure as hell aren't now.

They are only sorry they got called out and proved to be liars, just like the police.

Exactly right.

Well done to everybody who got this done.
Hope it stays in place forever.

Fucking slime wankers,  really would like to see Murdoch end his days behind bars.
Not that he will, but fucking hell, I hope he does. So much blood and hurt on that fucker's hands.

Ive just come in here to ask the same question. I assumed we could not ban them due to some PL rule or something. To find out that we could have banned them but took till now is strange.  Especially as Ellis retired years ago. I have read teh article and it still doesn't really explain it for me.

Anyway goodbye, good riddance.

I've deleted the post that seeked reconciliation, not because I'm censoring the poster or their opinion but because its now distracting from the fact that the club have finally took a stance against the rag.
So there's no debate, the campaign continues.

Yes, I did read that. Feels like "spin" to me.

Or maybe FSG just listened to the people behind the campaigns?

Where can I buy f*** the s*** * stickers (or any acceptable version)? I am happy to put one on my guitar, I am happy to put loads everywhere I go within reason 

[sms1986]

I'm worried ..... worried why now? and is it to take away from a situation where we are fucked if we lose tomorrow?

They're damned if they do something good, damned if they do something bad and damned if they do something in the middle, aren't they?

You could always ask in this group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1576357575995356/.

[Statto Red]

The ban should have started 19th April 1989 not now.

All about the time things happen in media. Focus needs to be 100% on a must win tomorrow ...... oh look there's a scum story to get the fans wound up

[Chakan]

Wow people will always go out their way to find a negative...

That's an idea. I like seeing these stickers wherever I go 

[jimbo196843]

Great news. Like many others I'm a bit surprised it wasn't done years ago but well done to those who made it happen

[4pool]

Better late than never.

Hope it brings more awareness as to why not to buy that newspaper.

"Banning journalists from a club is bad for fans and bad for football."

Errrrr, no it isn't.

They actually believe that football needs them. Fuck me...

[DHKopper]

Great stuff.  Shame we can't fuck Sky off.  Hopefully that'll change at some point.

[Dougle]

Good. 'Bout time.

[Wabaloolah]

Fantastic news and long overdue

[Tesco tearaway]

Brilliant news; Well done to the TEOTS lads and lasses

[Red Eyed]

Good news.

Has anybody seen this extension for Google Chrome that blocks any Murdoc controlled media? I've been using it for awhile and seems to work well, wouldn't click on that shit willingly but sometimes it happens by accident.

Just come in to say GREAT NEWS!!

[Zee_26]

Great news!!

[Clayton Bigsby]

For those who were old enough, can you remember why these guys weren't 'sent to Coventry' as soon as the ban on the paper was implemented. I can't get my head around the timing, I know better late than never

Sorry if I infringed any forum rules, it wasn't the intention

Sorry if I infringed any forum rules, it wasn't the intention

You didn't infringe any forum rules, you offered an unacceptable solution
Let's leave it there.

This good for nothing paper that is made up of lies, sensationalism and porn  should just shut down. What ounce of good is this paper doing for society?

I deplore every writer (they are too shit to be called journalist) that works for this paper.

[Chalky Boots]

28 years too late. Why now?

Sky are going to have it in for us now, so it will have a damaging effect on us (although I support the ban and it should have already been in place).

It's not as if there's a blanket ban on News Corp, if that lot still want quotes they'll get it from secondary sources from the Times/Sunday Times.

Anyway, like most people I'm disappointed it's taken so long but at least now done. Doesn't matter what generation of journalist finds refuge there the disgraceful content that paper leads with never changes.

Protest outside Goodison Park over Everton's decision NOT to ban the S*n

Protest outside Goodison Park over Everton's decision NOT to ban the S*n

http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/protest-outside-goodison-park-over-12750530#ICID=Android_EchoNewsApp_AppShare

“We negotiated with both clubs for months asking them to reflect the wishes of their fan bases.

“Both clubs indicated they would stand together.

“We don’t understand why Everton FC Directors would now say that they don’t think EFC fans want them to take the same stance that LFC has.

“We call on EFC directors to reflect the wishes of their fans and disallow access to all S*n personnel to all club premises.”

What kind of idiots are on the board of Directors at Everton? I don't know a single Everton fan who'd get angry at them banning The S*n

[Purple Red]

Not sure why Everton wouldn't follow suit given their excellent support for the Hillsborough campaign over the years. I can't imagine it would harm the club financially or anything like that.

[4pool]

Fair do's to the supporters..

[Lush is the best medicine...]

https://twitter.com/matflusk/status/852826305821196289

And some in the press have moaned their ban, hopefully Everton follow suit now, another comment about how he's a prize catch in Liverpool as he's thick and most people who have his money in the city are drug dealers in jail

[12C]

I think any blue who still thinks that rag is worth anything only needs to look at what KM spouts about Barkley.

Comparing him to a gorilla? Disgusting
