Dont bother reading his articles, works for me
Fair point, not much to do with spare time in work other than reading the sports sites that the work browser let's me on, mind.
I don't usually read the Telegraph, but he used to be the Echo's Chief Liverpool reporter, has he changed since then?
I hadn't heard much about him, apparently he went from The Echo to The News Of The World (), causing a bit of a crap-storm, now he's at The Telegraph.
Hmm, maybe there's some bitterness from his move to the News of the World? I usually read the Guardian's website, which is pretty good, although they do like to go OTT whenever a club seems to be struggling in some way...
The telegraph do this with every club who've fallen down form their perch.
They've done it with Arsenal many times over the last decade, they did it with Man U during the Chelsea - Mourinho era, they did it with Newcastle during relegation, Liverpool are just the team who've currently fallen and are the target, I expect City to get the treatment next.
Just ignore it.
I've just read the article on "Comollis sacking" and whilst article after article is a bit ott, I agree with most of what he said!
I'm not really arguing with much that he says, it's just that any time anything bad happens he has to get his article in, making the same points as the week before, even if the ground has already been covered by another Telegraph journalist that day.
I'm not generally sensitive to media stuff (we're getting a pasting everywhere, rightly so) and yet Bascombe seems excessive in the extreme.

Have you read the "Football Experts" in the Daily Fail as they take some beating with the vitriol re LFC ?????????
No, I tend to avoid the Mail, although I've had the misfortune of seeing some of Martin Samuel's articles over the years.
