were taken off the front cover of the rogrames for the rest of the season after the one used for the Villa game featured a person of colour who was murdered by a police officer?
Makes you think now. [Post edited 26 Mar 20:55]

I'm as angry about this as the next person but that is some rewriting of history there |  | | |

In fairness I should have used the word "after" rather than "because". Have edited. | |

Ashton couldn't even keep his story straight on something as simple as that.
We had 'the sponsors complained', then 'the players complained' and, finally, 'some fans complained'.
Chap's an habitual liar. | |

What?
I was angry about the decision, but from an artistic angle. The discussion at the time was that the players couldn't understand covers that were not photos or paintings that look like photos of their heads. Which was stupid but made sense. I don't know this argument. [Post edited 26 Mar 22:29]

Yes.
The commentary at the time, as from the club, was that the players did not like covers that did not feature them on. So the club got in that artist who does the dreary photorealistic paintings that may as well be photographs, because it was reported that the players only understand imagery that is or looks like photographs.
I'm not saying this is or isn't the case, but that's what I heard from various places.
I don't know what this story of the OP is. But I'd like to know more, as it may add context. | |

Ironically, wasn't that a commercial decision by Ashton because of sponsors not being happy?
....... Well I'm pretty sure they're not exactly chuffed at the minute, Mark. |  | | |

There's enough wrong at the moment without having to invent new conspiracy theories. No-one could ever know, so what does this serve? |  |
