Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "You (deliberately) miss the point that the list in "news" wasn't the same as the shirt presentation evening, so looking in "news" would only add to confusion. You say it was a "disgrace"; it wasn't, it just wouldn't help you to know what the real numbers were. '"


I didn't deliberately miss anything. You were the one who seemed so aggrieved about the fact that the squad page hadn't been updated and that alternatively someone would have to look up the news article instead. That was my point, was it really such a big deal to have to look somewhere else in the meantime?

Quote: Ferocious Aardvark " Don't think anyone could argue that it wasn't. Presenting numerous players with shirts which turn out not to be their numbers? That's not embarrassing? Why are you even trying to argue that? I don't get it. '"


An incident that brought the club into disrepute would be an embarrassment. Putting a wrong number up on a screen, not so much. In my opinion anyway.

Quote: Ferocious Aardvark " If anybody had said that then yes. Nobody did, though.

One person [idid [/isay "if I'm honest, a bit of an insult to both players and fans". The context, and the wording, makes it clear that I wasn't seeking to overplay it. A pretty mild, qualified, and fair rebuke. Not even a bit "dramatic". You deliberately tried to cut out the words that don't suit, so you could pretend I made more of it than I did. Ironically, you can't even quote correctly - I never mentioned "staff". '"


That one was indeed my mistake, and so I apologise my mistyping it (staff instead of fans). God forbid typos should ever occur. Still, I don't seen how it was an insult, or "a bit of an insult" if were being that fussy, just because somebody made a mistake either at the presentation evening or on the e-mail. Obviously none of us can speak for the players, but as a fan, I wasn't insulted by it in the slightest. It's a mistake, they happen, as I just inadvertently showed icon_wink.gif

Just once I'd like it if you stopped being a joke and a disgrace.

That sort of thing is a disgraceful joke.

No, people wouldn't know to dig out a news article, and there shouldn't be different squads on different pages, and the squad in the article was different from the squad at the shirt presentations.

Quote: SombreroBu11 "An incident that brought the club into disrepute would be an embarrassment. Putting a wrong number up on a screen, not so much. In my opinion anyway. '"

It turns out (well, so we think) that the wrong shirts were presented, from 16 onwards. It's silly to pretend that's not at least a little embarrassing, and you know it.

Quote: SombreroBu11 "...
I stated my opinion, you replied and I replied to you. It's called a conversation. '"

Wrong. This is a forum not a private chat, and I was not the only person to think it was embarrassing. And this is your 753rd post about it in the thread, so on any view, you ARE going on and on.

But, I give you permission to have the last word, as I'm totally bored with it now.

Whoever does the website/media releases obviously needs to double check their articles anyway.

If you look at the announcement of the squad for Dewsbury rlhererl, the article says "First-team regulars......are to be joined by youngsters including Adam O'Brien......". Similarly, there's another story interviewing O'Brien saying he's looking forward to the game.

But if you actually read the 20 names announced for the squad, in the same article I've quoted above, Adam O'Brien's name isn't even there.

I think I'll hang on until the opening game and the squad list should be on the programme......, though, of course, it might or might not be the correct one. icon_lol.gif

Obrien definitely isn't playing. Seems an decision to publish article on website as if he was.

Indeed. rlThis onerl for those who didn't see it. Article put up this morning.

Quote: "The 20-year-old hooker, who is to act as understudy to skipper Matt Diskin this term, has been named as part of a 20-man squad to face Dewsbury Rams later today.'"


Except that he wasn't. And isn't playing.


All very odd really. Far from the end of the world, but it does look a bit amateur, especially the original article that said he was in the squad, but didn't list him (in the very same article).
