I've seem some pretty illogical leaps in arguments in my time but how does Sadler get from being "difficult" and "unresponsive" to the media to "falling attendances"?
I agree that we could probably be better but its a two way street. I was all for a "batten down the hatches" approach before Wembley so the team could focus on the game, rather than which soundbite to give the HDM, but understand that there are commitments in respect of that. But I do agree with the Blunderside "boycott" in terms of the coverage and respect they give to us. The Crooks thing is a prime example. So maybe if the media started being a bit fairer in their coverage of the club as a whole, we might be less difficult to deal with.
I suspect Clarkey has gone from the club or has been told to knuckle down instead - his Twitter account has been silent since the Hudds game, and AP made some barbed comments at the end of year dinner too. Not sure who'll be handling the media stuff if so.
I also agree with Standee. Do it right on the field and the media will be wanting to talk so we can do it on our terms.
