Andy Coulson, formerly of the News Of The World has been appointed to replace Elliot Jackson.

So they back down as quickly as that, despite saying they were backing him.

Just picking up on this now.  Pathetic Venkies.  Buy the club for peanuts run it downhill and destroy the club culture, treat fans like they are peasants yet cry when someone calls them out.  I would expect nothing else from these cretins.  Telewag should get a bigger newspaper on board share what they know.  Someone needs to drag these bastards over the coals

Support the local rag now simple.

I agree

lets all start paying our match ticket fee to Lancs subscription instead of going to game 

Show the venkys this is the land of free speech and we shouldn’t go to games and line their pockets

lancs are very soft tbf and could and should be more brutal about the shenanigans at the club but this shows they were keeping up their end of their deal with the club am so to be band is outrageous

Jackson did refer to the Gestade bare arm incident at the training ground which Gestede has hotly denied. That story seems to have really got to him. Possibly what he was angling to sue Glen for as well? 

I challenged gestede directly who refutes the claim (there are more than one witness) and offered him the opportunity to sit down one to one to discuss the claims and id put his side of the story out.

He stated he dont think any present employees have said this but conceded he had his ideas which former employees have 

He stated he dont do private sittings.

He suggested my post had religious undertones,  though I pointed out by neices sons are indeed Muslim and tbh id not even considered that angle.

He stated id posted for sensationalism, I pointed out im not a journalist and will only post things I can support through first hand conversations or documents.

It was a joke.  Some folk may not know who Andy Coulson, of phone tapping fame, is.

Is Venkies fear of anything negative being reported the reason they withheld funds and allowed TWO decent managers to walk thereby denying us a crack at the Prem.  They do not want us in the limelight. 

Surely it is the best for them to move on, just ride off into the sunset.

Gestede was always going to try to play the race/religion card and has no grounds to do so. He knows only too well that what you have stated is accurate and was probably hoping, the people who you spoke to, were going to clam up. Funny how he has now changed his tune. Bullies hate being challenged and are usually cowards.

Who do the club think they are, telling the Lancashire Telegraph who they can and cannot appoint in certain roles?

You can’t make jokes like that mate. We all know they are capable of anything.

When that type of joke gets taken seriously by so many that's when you know just what a cluster fuck of a situation we're in

So he has now conceded that he has an idea which former employees have told you about what he said and  what he issued legal threats to you about.

So now, does he apologise to you, or issue legal threats to the former employees?

My suggestion is he will do neither, as he knows only too well that it happened and does not have the decency to apologise either.

Can't really remember anything vaguely controversial from the Club's point of view that Jackson has ever written.

Perhaps they didnt like his recent article about Friedel, the headline of which insinuated one of the reasons he left was that he foresaw future problems with the ownership of the Club.

If the headline accurately represented what Friedel said, he certainly wasn't wrong!

And if that is what Freidal thought he is entitled to say so and Jackson is right to report it.

[JHRover]

Good grief, they've somehow made themselves appear even more diabolical than they appeared after yesterday's statement.

No doubt shitting themselves now they're realising what this actually means and national attention growing as powerful media and journalists take notice, so a slimy attempt to backtrack by piling it all on Jackson.

Horrendous. Clearly trying to get him removed by the Telegraph and replaced with someone else. I've criticised the Telegraph many times but individually and publicly targeting Jackson is outrageous.

I really hope the Telegraph double down here and go to war on the Club.

Who the hell they think they are at Ewood, like all crooked, corrupt evil regimes around the world they want the media in their back pocket and support 'reporting' as long as it's the version they tell them to report.

 

[simongarnerisgod]

this issue will run,if they can ban the local paper then anyone who arouses suspicion in their closed and suspicion led existance will be targetted as well,the club has closed access to the fan groups and banned the local paper,nailed on they`ll be targetting anything or anyone else they don`t deem to be agreeing with them

[Tom]

I feel sorry for Jackson here, I can’t say I’ve ever been a huge fan of his reporting if I’m honest I felt he needed to be more cutting but it may well be his hands were tied.

At this point though the club is actively looking to ruin his young career, if the telegraph brought someone else in he’d be out of a job.

This is going to backfire in a big way for the club the only thing they can do is back down and then they still look pathetic for it
