Heres why we can spend and Everton not so much: Its not rocket science our income is nearly treble theirs.
Why LFC fans and the Echo are not asking "Why are we not spending on players" is the odd question.

Understand that but this is getting beyond a joke now. These characters feel empowered by the clicks they get and as this shows, feel they can say anything.

‘Totally legit deal with Abu Dhabi Sewage Board’. This has got to be against the law?
Sadly I don't think it is actually libellous or against any law. You can pretty much abuse organisations as much as you want under the guise of "fair comment." It only becomes defamatory if you suggest overtly that they are corrupt or dishonest. Freedom of speech is a strong right in this country.
However for a Reporter on a national newspaper to make such public comments about an organisation he also reports on is totally unethical and unprofessional. It undermines his credibility and shows that he is not impartial. City could complain to the Independent Press Standards Organisation and his employers would be tied up in a time-consuming complaints process. This would make the journalist look very stupid.
