I know what you're saying, but they are just the clubs mouthpiece

You can't rely on them for balanced reporting. It suits the club and them perfectly, they get "exclusives" such as this, the club gets to put news out in a way that is favourable to them.

It's hardly controversial. Having a great working relationship with the local press is important. Would be silly not to have them onside.
