ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

Sean Ingle not toeing the Media's party line there. Particularly enjoyed this paragraph;

'So what would Shankly do in a global pandemic that threatens to bring the economy and the health system to its knees? The answer, it’s safe to say, would not involve piggybacking on a government scheme to stop mass unemployment when you are the world’s seventh-richest club. Furloughing Liverpool’s non-playing staff – saving perhaps £1m – when you have an annual wage bill of £310m and paid £43m to agents last year is not a good look.'

Good on him.
This means it'll join the S** in the boycott list.
 
To be fair to their fans, they've are not happy about the club furloughing none playing staff. I was expecting them to make every excuse possible, but even they realise it is shithouse behaviour from their club.

Yep, a lot of themn are angry on social media and rightly so. My red mates are unhappy about this. How can anyone not be? Greedy clubs. Just hope we do not do it and we we do we need to kick off.
 
Despite all the abuse they are rightly receiving, one line I keep seeing is that 'this goes against the clubs values'.

FFS. The only surprise in my mind is that 3 other clubs announced they would furlough before they did. Their decision is entirely in keeping with their values (or lack of) .
 



I was looking at the fellas in top right and top left corners, trying to describe their reactions - kind of like the police have caught their mates and they're walking past, letting on they've never seen them before in their lives.

I think @cronullasharks has nailed what I was missing though:

"I better react like i care but i can't wait to get home and play world of warcraft"
