Thread: Communication

  1. #1

    Communication

    An absolute masterclass by Rotherham United in how NOT to communicate to its fanbase.

    I don't expect a minute by minute commentary in how the new manager selection process is going but surely, someone, (is someone employed to communicate ?) should be keeping us, the paying supporters, updated, - even if there isn't any material changes to report on.

    Losing all faith in the running of RUFC - please stop bull****ting us Mr. Stewart.

    He'll tell when he knows what's definitely going to happen. Would you be any different in your personal dealings? Answer. No

    Not sure what else they can say,we sack the manager,we look for another,we interview people,someone gets the job,that`s roughly how it works everywhere.

    Please don't answer on my behalf - I would be totally different, and I would keep people involved in the process - I don't feel involved at all , do you?

    You aren't relevant to the process and therefore don't need to be informed of anything. When we make an appointment, they will announce it. Until then, just be patient.

    What exactly are you expecting them to say until there is something to say? Here's what two other Championship teams in a similar position have on their channels of official communication (Website)

    Sunderland
    Supported by the Club’s existing coaching team, Mike Dodds will lead the first-team’s training and match preparations until the process to appoint a new Head Coach has concluded.

    Swansea
    The process to appoint a new head coach is already under way and the club will update supporters in due course.

    Probably because any communication is met with cynicism and petulance by some.

    Answer : Yes,I would be very different in my personal dealings.I wouldn't tell anyone anything when things DO happen.Privacy is power...what people don't know,they can't ruin! Hence,I'd be an appalling Chairman for any football club!

    Ha ha ha! Why on earth should you ‘feel involved’? The sense of entitlement of some is hilarious. Some might feel like Tone has said too much, given how things have worked out.

    I assume they chuck the bread pieces out to Paul Davis…but other than,just like a signing there is nothing to announce till there is something to announce…no club is going to come out say so-so has turned us down etc…I also think Swiss Tony wasn”t too pleased how the MT sacking got leaked..
