I used to follow Goal.com for 13 years since 2009. Year by year you could see how the website downgrades. From providing very detailed analyses to becoming just website were is plethora of gossip and not useful information. For me it hit the bottom rock when i saw that they are deleting my comments under articles. Here is example.
Here is an example. There was an article about gay chants against Chelsea FC. The message was clear saying that chants hurt gay people feelings and it should be punished. I left comment saying that Purpose of chants is to annoy the opposition and not to make them feel comfortable. No offensive words were used, and i text was very polite.
They blocked it. For no reason. I left another comment saying that website blocks my comments, so people should know about it. They blocked it again. Then i realized that all comments left are those that favor the article. Anything they dont like is being deleted. In another words that is called propaganda. When you filter what you dislike and put only what favors your opinion. That way goal.com creates false impression that everyone who leaves comment there favors their idea.
That is simply wrong what they are doing. This is an example how big propaganda machine works.
People should simply never use any website that tries to manipulate public opinion.
