Hope it works out for him. Sounds like he wasn't necessarily ready to leave the Gazette then. All a bit strange given how often Paylor writes now?

I’ll wait on his onlyfans

Ah that is good. I saw he was watching the press conference today.

I have to admit that I had to look up what Patreon means. Now I know.

You didn't have to look up Onlyfans rob?

He knew what only fans was already

What AV doing then? Has he set up an independent Boro news thing? As much as AV had his flaws, he is head and shoulders above the current gazette journos. I don't mind Dominic Shaw though. Might see some better content than when he was at the Gazette if AV has the "shackles off"?

He joined one of our Zoom meetings a few weeks back - The Gazette wanted soundbites rather than in-depth articles and he's not prepared to compromise.

"Teesside is a hell-hole of smoke and Satanic mills on the very fringes of civilisation. If you Google 'what's it like to live in Middlesbrough?' it makes for very bleak reading. "

Is jaundiced view of Teesside scaring off signings?

When all else is equal the location and perception of the town could count against Boro in the market

Haha, I thought the same thing!

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

He mentions The Athletic on his Patreon, and I think he'd make for a really good coverage of Boro on there. Long-form journalism is his thing, I'd finally bite on The Athletic if he joined.

Oh right. Doesn't Paylor do full articles though?

Maybe he's not as bothered or needs the money more. Didn't think to ask him that.

 

[Nosmo-King]

Good journo in my opinion. Has his finger on the pulse of fan’s thoughts. I find the articles he has written to be well thought, well crafted pieces and he was a great asset to the Gazette. Big loss and big shoes to fill

Sorry, but what I mean is they seem to be asking Paylor for full articles, why not AV?

I thought it was an electric car

I'm just going on what he said - didn't want to work with what they were asking him to do.
