EVERTON FC’S Director of Communication Ian Ross has left the club.
Everton were forced to mount an internal investigation 10 days ago after private e-mails from Mr Ross about the club’s Chief Executive, Robert Elstone, were published on the internet.
The correspondence, purporting to be from Mr Ross, was highly critical of Mr Elstone’s leadership, spoke of a culture of paranoia inside Goodison Park and described Goodison as like “working in a kindergarten.”
One mail from Mr Ross suggested that Mr Elstone was “unfit to lead” and heading for some kind of “breakdown.”
Ross, who had been a media officer at Everton FC for 11 years after a highly respected career in journalism, had been expected to switch to a different department inside Goodison.
However it was confirmed this morning that he had now left the club. There was no official comment from Goodison officials.
