The tragic fact regarding the Flyers SM use is that it wouldn't be overly hard for them to change their approach to encourage more fan engagement and appear more 'fan friendly'. On the left, a view of the current state of the Twitter account; on the right, some rewritten Twitter posts similar to the top EIHL/ECHL/NHL clubs (images would be required). Anyone noticed the Social Media accounts have started to change a wee bit? Since this thread?

"n days to go .So and so used to wear that number for the Flyers." Attach unrelated, out of focus black/white photo and bad hashtags.

Anyone noticed the Social Media accounts have started to change a wee bit? Since this thread? There does seem to be a hint of trying to engage fans with their latest postings - "share your pictures of...", "what are your memories of...?" & #TBT since this thread started. If, by any chance, someone from the Flyers is reading this thread, please (please, please!) think about stopping the same posts from posting on both Facebook & Twitter. Both platforms need different styles of posts - hashtags and short snappy messages are fantastic for Twitter, whereas on Facebook they don't look so good. The use of software, such as Hootsuite, is perfect for managing both platforms within one account

Seriously- who the heck has this incredibly difficult task of tweeting on the Flyers official twitter account and updating the Facebook page? I've heard people says it's that jack of all Flyers trades DJ Ali, but even more worryingly I've heard it's the web-master who apparently is a teacher!!! Lordy me!
Taking away the spelling, grammar, failure to take into account the fans mood etc etc., this Ingolstadt thing is just another in a long line of embarrassing misinformed gaffes. Remember when they wished our Canadian followers a Happy Thanksgiving on the U.S. Thanksgiving Day? Or when they tweeted that the ref was turning a game into a 'farse'? Jesus- at least spell farce correctly.
Is there seriously nobody at the club who notices these things and thinks strongly enough about it to make a change? I really thought naming fans on Facebook regarding season ticket applications should have been the last straw.

The tweet about being twinned is cringeworthy. Terrible grammar, and technically incorrect.
Boils my **** so it does.
I'm sure there's a guy on Twitter that has it in his bio that he's the Website and social media developer. Not something I'd go shouting about considering how **** it is.

So glad I wasn't the only one to FacePalm when I read the post. I've given up on the flyers Facebook, I can't handle the comments from the fans either, they're worse than the posts from the club. I stick to Twitter now, it's a much more critical place to be (not sure if it's because they can't delete the comments).
As a club and fanbase, we're cringy as fu**. The hockey better be good this year because everything else is sh**
