[lesbos]

dick marshall is the main man for non league coverage of course and i always see him leaving basildon station as i walk into work,we all know from jeff kings time at canvey that he likes a sweetener,thats the only way you buy influence with him.

look at the coverage great wakering get,believe me marshall doesn't need to take his wallet into their bar. sorry its sad but true.

Maybe more coverage richard and that might go up to 160. At the risk of repeating myself how many West Ham fans buy the echo to read its two page report. I know for certain many locals would buy the echo more often with better ESL coverage. You included as you have told us in the past. 'm not asking for the West Ham pull out to be removed just the ESL get good coverage from its most local paper.

The same people file copy for the Dark Side as well as us. I sub all the Step FIve round-ups in the NLT and some of the copy is so bad that it is laughable. Luckily, my knowledge of NonLeague is extensive enough to amend the incorrect spelling of team names, but I am sure there are hundreds of player names that go through wrong each week.

i agree rookie west ham fans are spoilt for choice while local non league supporters have just the echo, the standard bearer is the recorder series,hornchurch recorder,thurrock recorder which are brilliant on the local non league scene.

Many people slag off the Recorder for varying reasons, but having seen many local papers from around the country, it does give one of the most comprehensive coverage of NonLeague football.

fecking hell, who slags off the recorder,unlike the dick marshalls of this world their reporters are actually interested in non league football. i just wish we had a basildon recorder.

The coverage we get in the Recorder is good. We make the back page everyweek be it only a footnote at times.more often than not there is a picture with the report.We get covered by the local free papers and also Time FM.

 

Is the Echo a daily? Do your clubs fax reports into the Echo?

The odd couple

[Brewerytown]

Not only does the Recorder cover local & youth football over 4 to 5 pages it also has the room to waste 5 pages on West Ham.

By the way. Are you doing the gate on April 29?

Could be a reasonable crowd of us plus a few ground hoppers on the evening methinks.
