Communications may also get a rocket, with the 'disconnection' between club messaging and supporter sentiment. Supporters frankly don't give a @#$%&! right now about 'the hardest hits of the week', how good Eddie's latest arsey goal was, or that Charlie's a week closer (no shit). It's ok for the club to show that they're made up of human beings who feel what we feel, and not just soundbytes from the 'slogantron 3000'. I remember early in the year after Norf got flogged one week and their tweet was to the effect of "We're hurting too", which I'm sure did little to make their supporters feel better but at least didn't patronise them.
For years posters whinged because the club didn't communicate with the members and when they do, we now don't give a @#$%&! about it.
Personally, I think our communication team have been excellent the past couple of years.
I agree
They have improved out of sight, yet I still want more.
After a win all those Highlights are great to rewatch, as do my kids.
Aftyer a loss, well, a few losses. everything seems black and wrong.
We are all hurting, but that shouldn't stop the club having Goal of the Day, Mark of the Day, Big Hits....I don't want to go to the Dark Ages and have our media channel focus just on the negativity. The other media outlets are in that domain. That's Black Dog stuff. We need all the cheering we can get.
I still watch the old GF's as well as some classic games, but its good to be reminded of what we have today. Its not all that bad, because things improve pretty quickly.
I don't mind if the club comes out to say we are hurting in addition to all the good stuff tho.
Agree with that, but timing is a bit off.. so many fans are hurting after the loss, expecting some answers and the only thing you get on the website are some flash in the pan moments which in no way define the sentiment at the time.. I woudl have thought they'd present Teagues presser and then give it a day before they posted the niceties.
