Could be wrong here but isn't CP paid to rate the players. He also asks the fans after the games for their opinions. I think its a bit harsh people moan at him when he is just doing what he is meant to be doing.
 
How can a thread having a dig at the bloke suddenly turn into everyone giving him a pat on the back because he has posted?

Fair play he's doing his job, but my point was that his whinging on twitter was extremely irritating. I never buy the echo as I'm hardly in the area, so I can hardly comment on the majority of his work; but what I do know is that the Echo website is a pile of **** and that little video that starts playing when you open up the homepage is possibly even more annoying than his tweets!

I wasn't 'really' having that much of a dig when I started the thread. More surprised that people write in to complain about his marks! I agree that he does seem a little sensitive on twitter at times.

Completely agree about the echo website.

Also, the ratings still haven't gone up...

People have different opinions, would be a bit pointless if everyone had to agree with the original poster.

The ratings were in the Echo yesterday. All 7s and 8s.

Thats not really Chris' fault and you can stop it by using Chrome and adblocker....

As for giving him a pat on the back, I did so before he posted, I have a lot of respect for him and I remember a time when we had terrible coverage of our club so appreciate the work he has done. He has covered some important stories for the club, gives us plenty of coverage and is a supporter.

So he might be a bit touchy on twitter, who gives a monkeys.

Do remember that the supplier of this software has been taken to court by a number of countries here in Europe and in North America for breaches of the law (and on a number of occasions). Not to mention their convoluted and intricate methods not to pay taxes in the countries where they operate and generate profits. At the same time the tax men press Southend United for every penny. Hmmm - doesn't quite seem fair on the club or you and me.

Perhaps another company might be better?

What on earth are you babbling about ?
 
If you find him annoying on Twitter, then don't follow him. Pretty simple solution I'd have thought! :facepalm:

Funnily enough, I actually did! Completely taken back by your wisdom though, that is a very rational and intelligent suggestion. Thanks.
