Phileas Fogg Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 2 minutes ago, JonDolman said: Its funny though that simply a fire emoji above it can cause people to get pissed off. Some people take some things far too seriously it seems to me. You're missing the point (perhaps deliberately). People aren't "pissed off" about it, just using it as an example of the club getting it wrong. It's a fairly straightforward control and finish that people weren't that impressed by (read the replies) - the club don't need to post something for the sake it of. Sometimes it's just better to post nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted September 1, 2020 Admin Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 I noticed the social media team were getting destroyed on Twitter at the weekend for trying to make the Swindon friendly sound like some fiery local derby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 6 minutes ago, JonDolman said: Fair enough. I genuinely don't get where there's a problem in retweeting a video of one of our players scoring a goal during training on international duty. The fire emoji? Honestly who really cares they included that! Its just a bit of support for one of our players. And highlights the fact we have players representing their country. People need to cheer up! I expect there's kids on Twitter who like seeing it. Maybe some adults do too. I didn't mind watching it. Nice enough finish in the corner. No harm done. That's true of course, however if the club consistently put out content the supporters want then they wouldn't care. The issue is that they consistently get it wrong - almost more often than not I'd say. As a result, people are hypercritical of their social media content and rightly so.

And Its Smith Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 1 hour ago, Phileas Fogg said: It's not the retweeting of them in isolation, it's the accompanying caption which was a fire emoji as if to imply it was some sort of ridiculous piece of skill. It wasn't, a good percentage of the forum could probably do it themselves. It all just feels like a big disconnect and misunderstanding of the fans and what they want. To his credit, Ryan Morgan (the guy who actually runs the social media despite loads of people bizarrely thinking it's Dave Parsons tweeting personally), tweeted asking fans what they want to see as matchday content Weird how much it angers people. Davefevs even called Ryan an effing idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 1 hour ago, Phileas Fogg said: To his credit, Ryan Morgan (the guy who actually runs the social media despite loads of people bizarrely thinking it's Dave Parsons tweeting personally), tweeted asking fans what they want to see as matchday content To his non credit though I saw that tweet and nothing in his bio, name, picture etc gave any real indication that this was a genuine request from somebody involved in the club. It hinted loosely in his bio but that was it. Why not start with Hi I’m Ryan Morgan and I oversee fan context for the Bcfc site or similar. It just looked like some random guy asking what we want to see and with so many uber-fans launching podcasts, websites etc it was not obvious he was formally linked to the official site.

Eastside Moonwalker Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 The clubs instagram is terrible, I assume the twitter follows the likes of those Leverkusen and Mönchengladbach accounts with low effort trolling. Last time I checked the twitter page they were sort of forcing thatchers into everything, which I only assume was because they have them as a sponsor as I've never seen that before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not grown up as a fan and it shows, as @Eastside Moonwalker points out - the club clearly tries to emulate those novelty Bundesliga accounts with its approach. Our support just don’t like it very much. It’s rarely funny and often overdone. He does do very good video content - that’s clearly his strength. I also thought that twitter account was you - couldn’t believe you’d use such language! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone higher up needs to have a word. I mean, this is surely basic stuff? BASIC. It's even written on the screen in the background. Noticed today the score line in the top corner was 1-0 Exeter after Pato scoring, before being corrected a few moments later. All of it just needs tidying up.
