Quote: Slugger McBatt "It sounds like a matter of communication rather than an issue over bottles. If people know they can't take their stuff in, then it's fair enough to be asked to hand it over. If it is done in a polite and friendly manner, then I expect most people would comply. The problem, I presume, is that it is being done by blokes without much training just doing it to get an extra twenty quid on a Sunday. In a bib. People will dig their heels in if spoken to inappropriately. Marching your customers out of the ground for something like that is not on.
I detect a slight anti-fan stance from the club. I don't like some of the tweets from MC, digs about "real fans" turn up whenever. So go on, have a dig at the ones you want to attract back.
I appreciate that he feels under pressure because of what he has done for the club and I suspect feels under appreciated.. The bottom line is, however, is that he is in the entertainment industry and the leisure industry. Entertain your customers, treat them like customers, and don't slag off the ones who stopped coming. Work out how to get them back.
To be fair to the team, and that is what counts, they've done their part.'"
I think MC and his team are to wrapped up in there own egos to admit fault and try and get the fans back. Completely ignorant of anybody who doesnt kiss there backsides. Ive attempted to message MC personally today Via facebook because the clubs official site give you no answers. He has completely ignored me but has continued to message members of the northstanders on facebook as soon as hes been tagged in a comment. Tell me what sort of bloke ignores a polite, well put question by one fan but answers another more or less instantly. Im Sick of this and dont feel i can continue to go to games when one member of my family refuses to go back because of the treatment he recieved. Anybody with any issues with this club is been ignored might aswell write it on a piece of paper and post it in ther nearest bin.
