No Word From Our Sponsor

A listener to Roger Phillips' phone in on BBC Radio Merseyside this lunchtime emailed the programme to draw attention to an article in the Liverpool Echo about a recent darts tournament at the Arena. The listener, who attended the tournament, demanded to know why the Echo piece had ignored scenes of rowdy & drunken antics from some of the audience. In one incident, according to the listener, a steward was assaulted by a drunken woman. I suspect the reason lies with the identity of the Arena's main sponsor: the Liverpool Echo.
