Media team at it again!

Starting to wonder if it's some poor kid post Uni being underpaid and overworked, or if it's just a completely incomplete media team

No it's just a case of priorities needing a bit of review. The focus seems to be more digital media content, which I can understand given the increased opportunities this provides commercially. It seems more traditional content is handled a bit lazily. Lots of it looks like templates that they chop and change.. but often they're incorrect.

So..... Who would you rather:

1) a media team that is typo free and cunningly accurate.

2) a media team behind everything from original goal gifs, behind the scenes Robins uncut, signings on the roof, doors and wheels etc 

I vote to stick not twist.

Number 1 every time

Though very clever how you have split the two

I had a mate in the Army who's first tattoo had a spelling mistake, from then on he deliberately misspelled every tattoo he had(and there where quite a few) so that it looked like it was on purpose, maybe the same is happening here?

But it's a piece of piss to do both. So why can't we?

Their main KPIs seem to be whether "fever pitch" can win the "football content awards". 

That's all fine, but it seems to be at the expense of getting the basics right rather than in addition to.

I salute the efficiency of this post. It's an excellent description of the media team that can easily be copied and pasted into the next thread someone starts about Lee Johnson's management style...

The goal gifs pre-date the current media team and are actually an idea that initially came from Bristol Flyers' Joel Osbourne.

The point people are making is that we should expect a media team that can do both. It doesn't have to be either/or. 

They're clearly very good at the video side, but there are too many basic errors in written copy.. I also still think they frequently miss the mark on Twitter. An observation many people have held since Adam Baker left a few seasons ago.

Our comms and media team are priceless!

I appreciate they don't create a programme from scratch every game and instead change the main details within a template, but if you are going to 'file' and 'save as' the last programme and then change the details, surely get somebody to check it!  I'm an Internal Auditor so I do this stuff as a job but it's not rocket science surely

It is. But...

It's one of many - too many

It's basic - to the point you'd think the club was run by idiots

And god knows what we'd make of it, if the other lot made such basic errors - except we do know, e.g. Doncaster United 

I completely agree with you. 

Mine was a sarcastic remark.
