Could their be a reason for that? Is that the coach is part of this problem, again. I get that TD doesn’t always come across as a sparkling interviewee, but reckon that there are others far more to blame for the PR shambles than he is. Was just meaning todd wasnt maybe not giving any info for pr stuff

Was just meaning todd wasnt maybe not giving any info for pr stuff Todd won’t give it, media manager won’t ask, owners have no interest. It’s a club wide issue. None of them care about it. Since Steven McLean left it’s gotten far far worse. Mr McLaren is doing a truly awful job as media manager. I thought it was bad before but it’s gotten even worse these past few weeks. Both headers on Twitter and Facebook out of date with February fixtures showing. Instagram nothing for the last two weeks. Website nothing new since weekend preview on the 21st February. 4 games since then no match reports no interviews nothing?? Other clubs already pushing season ticket sales for 20/21, tumbleweed from within FIA.

Other clubs already pushing season ticket sales for 20/21, tumbleweed from within FIA. I struggle to see how things could have got ‘far far worse’ this season than they have been previously? If you’re saying mistakes didn’t happen before I’d disagree. The quality of writing/grammar has ALWAYS been utterly awful. Actually think some of it improved a bit - website is better, match night tweets are a bit better, and a few wee videos were not too bad? I don’t know the people involved with our social media output but I struggle to accept in this day and age that we can’t find a small team of semi experts who can do what seems to be a very basic task. When Ali spoke at that Q and A he talked about it being a monster ‘PR Machine’... when really we’re talking about throwing out a few tweets and FB messages most days? What was really scary was the bit where he said ‘the team’ had a system in place where every tweet etc was double checked for errors but it hadn’t really worked!! It’s incredible that a pro sports team operates like this.

It did get better for a few weeks but recently its all fell away to next to nothing again. Which just confirms the amateur approach the media "team" take to keeping fans updated despite recent turmoil. Hence why i suggested it's gotten worse.

Scary times then - I actually ended up unfollowing Flyers social media feeds as I found them so infuriating. If things are getting worse it just highlights the fact that the meeting at The Bay has had little or no effect. I’ve seen amateur sports clubs with better social media and websites.

It did get better for a few weeks with good reason, the new stuff coming out was not from the usual incompetents...then guess what, the fans loved it, the old guard at PR got defensive and more or less put a block on more of the ideas getting done. The talent is there but being stifled

Our attempts at social media have been embarrassing, worst in the league just like our team this season.
I can't see things changing, can anyone?
