It probably turns out I was sitting three yards away from you!

Ah I think we've met S? And played footie up at Saughton?

Good decision 100% agree - last few months with the rise and fall of BuyHibs and HOH have highlighted the poor standard of journalism from these papers and where their priorities lie.

just a **** paper with far too much of a maroon or is it moron tint.

Good decision, The Scotsman is a complete rag. Never realised just how bad until their referendum coverage. Shameful.

I tweeted them earlier about lack of balanced coverage re share issue... No reply

[poolman]

Did you mention the free full page ad they gave Foundation of Hearts or the amount of money STF spends with them on advertising his business.

[The Harp]

Good on the admins for their stance. The Hibs share issue should have been a main story for any half-decent local newspaper. Not to give it any coverage is shameful. And to give space to this gorilla nonsense just makes it even worse.

[Mon Dieu4]

I couldn't tell you the last time I actually bought any newspaper, they are all pretty shocking these days, the evening news has always been tragic though, we live in a fantastic cosmopolitan City and the EEN was always full of doom and gloom, seemed like it was aimed at OAPS more than anyone else, I did however have a wee glance at someone in works copy today, the obituaries were the most interesting part of the whole rag

I tweeted Banderson about this and surprise surprise..... No reply!!

Will this decision cost the EEN money?

I would imagine so, as there'll be less people looking at their site. I often click on newsfeed links that I see on here, but I no longer search their sites on a daily basis looking for Hibs stuff. There's rarely anything 'new' in their news in any case.

[Jack Ferrigan]

It's not surprising that this has happened. I have watched the demise of both these newspapers from overseas for the last 14 years. Being Edinburgh born and bred I used to look forward to reading both online versions. As the song goes "those days are past now" the present drivel being presented as news and sports coverage is truly diabolical. The bias towards one team from the capital and the shameful coverage of the Independence Referendum was the last straw for me . Here's to a new unbiased newspaper for the whole of Edinburgh and The Lothians!

[Green Man]

Excellent decision by the admin team. I used to buy the Evening News every day, then changed to reading the website every day, but the terrible standard of journalism and the morph into a Hearts mouthpiece have turned me off completely.

Good. Hopefully they've been informed of the decision as well.

Good decision.

Given the parlous state they're in, I can't get my head around their derisory and disdainful approach to Hibs. I would have thought that a reasonable percentage of their dwindling readership are fans of the Edinburgh teams, and half (ish) of those will be Hibs fans. You'd think they would be trying to hang on to us. It kind of looks like they've given up.

I'm not looking for preferential or biased coverage; just a fair account of what's going on at Hibs would do. Their coverage of the Hibs share issue and current protests is frankly bizarre. It's like following the general election from the perspective of the Monster Raving Loony Party.

[MrSmith]

Used to enjoy reading the EEN particulary the old pink news after the match. However, in recent years, the content and reporting of anything newsworthy has declined in both interest and quality resulting in me leaving it on the shelf. The old lady is definitely passed her best and due to the sycophantic relationship with HOMFC, has alienated many. RIP EEN ...

[Spike Mandela]

My first ever job was delivering Evening News' to the high flats at Sighthill and the Pinks on a Saturday.

Probably an essential part of my life for forty years or so. Can't remember the last time I bought one.

[Glesgahibby]

Good decision that reflects the views of the majority on here.
well done

[jacomo]

Expect retribution from embittered journos at The Scotsman.

'This isn't a fan message board, it's a shake down'. etc etc

Wow! a 3-page thread where there is 100% agreement, is this a first?

I am an occasional Sunday Times reader too, i just have to pretend to myself that it is in no way related to the Express.

Even paying for it rather than a freebie is worth it, the thing is huge and takes most of the day to digest :)

You won't have to pretend too hard -the Sunday Times has nothing to do with the Express.


STOP PRESS Evening News to be in newsagents from early morning from now on.This is supposed to be a step forward for readers.
