| [ Quote: RedTez "It's all very embarrassing from Koukash.
We will all be forever grateful to him for saving the club but his craving of adulation is getting a bit tiresome for me. His Twitter account is one of the most cringeworthy things I have seen on there. Recently the negativity towards attendances has been a pr disaster. If I was a floating fan and saw the owner slating numbers I'd stay well away! Why spend 20 quid to go and watch a game with no other fans, and an angry owner?
As for Vickers, as soon as he posted photos slating the rfl about the Hock ban I couldnt take him seriously.
The biggest issue is that their ego's have gotten in the way in the situation in question. Personal feelings within a fan base is one thing, but for the owner to have a fan blocked by the club is a joke. I would happily pay for a social media training course for Koukash, Vickers and the whole tech team at Salford as its all a embarrassing mess.
Like Iain says, it's all 1984esque.'"
well put
I have raised this issue on the forum at least twice since he took over the club, the post he puts on are embarrassing. He can put what he wants on social media if that's how he see it but don't then block individuals who don't actually agree with you.

Negs bringing down the tone of your forum? Keyboard Bell-endery tiresome? Embarrassed by some of your own fans?

The thing is, he can do just that if he wants. Agree with it, or not, it doesn't matter.
My personal view on everything social media is one of apathy. I think there's great opportunity for Clubs to use it to real advantage, but none of them do. Why aren't Clubs sticking great moments/Skills/Hits onto Vine? Where they'll be seen and shared quicker, easier, and effectively than on Youtube or Vimeo? And that's just one gripe.
As far as MK and Vickers having an online presence it sometimes works but often is just an irrelevance. Something for RL fans to glance at for a titbit of nonsense, and nothing more. When MK puts positive things on Twitter like his Prescott horse, few are bothered. If he has a bottle of wine and writes something stupid it's the talking point for weeks. A sad reflection of societies obsessions and priorities in my opinion. A bit like this thread really. MK and the Club account block a user and it's pages of pointless diatribe of the woes and positives of doing so. My opinion on the matter means little as I don't really care for this side of the Sport, and at the end of the day, people can choose to do what they want.
'Oh no! Someone blocked me on Twitter!'
Is not the same as...
'Oh no! Someone's run me over and shattered my pelvis!'
If people can't see the scale of 'outrage' on display within social media, and how people love to get outraged at the drop of a hat over things that are not important. There's little hope for the future. Sure, I feel a bit sad for the person involved but it's hardly the end of the world is it? The mock outrage of others leaves a particularly poor taste in the mouth.

| It's in the clubs best interests to have harmony amongst it's diehard supporters and my suggestion would be to sit down and resolve it. The situation has become a little embarrassing for the club. Why not ask the person in question to consider making a public apology for any offence caused by the article and move on?
The clubs actions could be interpreted by some as either childish, stubborn or egotistical and that's not a very good image to portray to your customers/potential customers.
I am not on anyone's side here, it just needs resolving for the benefit of the club, not individuals.

I have nothing to do with this person but I have seen a letter made public on social media apologizing to MK if they had offended the club & MK himself, the reply back to this person was short & to the point. This is basically why this debate as started & all it does if give the club negative press when we are trying to move the club forward.
Butcher, I agree social media as become the new lynch mob where you can rent a mob to spill out all the vermin you like. I have it set for rugby league up dates, overall it as a positive benefit, however again what is being played out over social media is only hurting the club I care about.

I agree. This is not important.

| I agree let it go.
Picking social media to decry other social media users and choices seems another odd choice.
Guess I'm just old.

It works both ways surely? You could say if it's not important why have the club made a deliberately bold step of blocking a diehard supporter from the clubs Twitter account?

I don't disagree. I don't think it's important either way.

Salford Red Devils RLFC.
[quote="Gotcha":y7izhg01]Salford won't win Super League in my lifetime. Even saying in jest they would sounds stupid.[/quote:y7izhg01]: |

| I disagree with the official club twitter blocking said individual, regardless of the owners thoughts towards her.
That said, I don’t blame Koukash at all for blocking her from his private account. This all stemmed from that pathetic article and whilst I have no personal axe to grind I must admit from the tweets I have read she holds herself in extremely high regard. Infact only recently I see she called said article “balanced and insightful”. Crazy.
Rather than moaning about the initial issue with Marwan, why not just continue with her flourishing RL journalism career alongside supporting Salford like the rest of us “mere mortals” have to do? I am sure we would all loved to be involved in the club in some form, but unless you’re professionally qualified to do so with the necessary experience then it shouldn’t happen.
It’s been going on for near on 12 months now, let it go….
