Articles from The Athletic

When was the last decent youth player we had come through? I said decent, so don't include Tom Davies.

Barkley most likely?

Really nice stuff from The Athletic recently, I especially liked the story about [REDACTED] but also enjoyed [REDACTED].

I very much enjoyed Redacted too, couldn't stop reading!

I read it during the work commute it does the job for me. The articles on there are miles better than anything the echo has ever put out. I don't get why people complain about it's model though, I'd rather pay a few quid a year to avoid click-bait articles and have no adverts.

Because folk want high quality, long form writing, updated twice a day and they don't want to pay anything for it...

Never heard of them, and I wouldn't pay for information that's freely available elsewhere.

What will happen to this site if we continued to post them?

Wouldn't pay to read stuff on line tbh.

On behalf of writers everywhere, thanks a lot.

Signed up for only £24 for a year, quality content thus far and if they give me one decent Everton article a day it more than pays for itself.

Come on lad, if The Athletic offered you a job, you wouldn't be taking that stance.

Which stance? As a freelance writer, i'd have your arm off for secure work writing about something I enjoy.

I'm merely reflecting what I see from my customers.

Blues,

A reminder to not publish any articles from The Athletic.

It's a subscription site and they have quite rightly pulled us up over posts in this forum containing their articles.

Sadly warnings and bans to anyone who shares content to The Athletic.

Thanks

Curious. Whats the story with opening a thread for discussion based on, or in reference to, an article in the Athletic?

And is there an issue with say a 2 sentence quote from an article int he Athletic?

We'd need to close it, because 99.9% won't have a subscription and it'll likely lead to someone sharing the article in full which lands us in hot water.

In the past for others (like The Mirror) we've had legal letters come through.

Let them take legal action, they don't really have much to stand on.

Who is the bigger Everton fan, the person with an Athletic subscription or a person with a season ticket?
