Any regular reader of these pages will know that ToffeeWeb is no stranger to controversy but I have to admit that I'm dismayed that this site is now being associated on websites of the local and national press with the leak by an "Ethan Dyer" of a string of email correspondence between Everton FC officials.
It's fair to say that in the watchdog capacity that we have often assumed, many things have been revealed on ToffeeWeb that otherwise wouldn't have gained wider exposure and with regard to episodes like Kirkby, the Kings Dock and Fortress Sports Fund, many would argue that the context provided by that shared knowledge has been positive in framing a wider analysis of the last decade.
That doesn't extend, in my opinion, to the posting, in their entirety, of emailed exchanges between members of the Goodison hierarchy, without any journalistic context, proof of their validity or justification by way of explanation for posting the whole thread, "warts and all."
Some of the more entrenched opponents of the Kenwright regime would probably justify the means vis-a-vis the end ? though I'm not sure what end is being served here ? and, personally, I can't condone it.
