365 to sue?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

Football365 are refuting claims by Newcastle manager Bobby Robson that we 'fabricated' or 'distorted' an interview with French full-back Didier Domi in which he criticised training methods at the club.

Domi claims that the quotes which appeared on Football365.com this week and subsequently in national and local newspapers, calling Robson's training methods old-fashioned, were a distorted version of an interview he gave to French paper Le Parisien. But Domi actually gave an interview to our French colleague on Monday - before the Le Parisien article was published.

Robson questioned Football365's integrity at a press conference on Thursday and subsequently we are seeking legal advice.

That's the way I like to see a business run...alienate a segment of your potential audience by threatening to sue their beloved club.....

Fuck you 365........

Anyone for a Boycott?

I'm with you Gav - their stuff is usually pretty dull at best, so it won't be any great sacrifice

www.football365.com is one of the best beb sites that i'e seen in recent days. I only found it when looking for the Domi article, and I am very impressed.

spurs fans the lot of them - started by Danny Kelly ex NME editor and man [partly] responsible for Danny Baker's rise to fame.

Good sites are ones that don't treat their readers/viewers with the kind of contempt that F365/Teamtalk etc do.

I remember we had a similar ban on Teamtalk a few years back [on HMS Communicata] - i never went back and still haven't. F365's now off my list as well. What do you learn that you couldn't possibly find out from a more reliable/interesting source anyway? f'all. F' em all and [london-based] ship they sail in.

Call me a cynic (don't bother Screacher!), but I still reckon there's a germ of truth in this story. It bears shades of Ravanelli, Hamman and Zeige.

no doubt about it - of course there is. However, there's MASSIVE difference between reporting a fact and reporting an opinion on a fact - that interview was so unbalanced, it needed prozac. Unbalanced, one-sided, designed to create news rather than report it. That's not journalism, that's MARKETING.
