The club are dreadful at communication with the fans at any level and on any subject . Clear communication (where appropriate) kills rumours ( the root of so much disharmony at the club) Should the club comment on the Celtic/ Rhodes scenario to the fan base retrospectively? 100% yes! True or otherwise So you want a formal club statement on every bullshit rumour on the internet? Yeah that’ll definitely happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There could have been other in negotiations but the clubs didn’t meet our valuations or the players demands. But you know keep making stuff up to suit the agenda. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it’s not that simple. clearly there is no significant infrastructure at the club in place. If there was DC would sit down with the PR/ communication manager, director of football and head coach and decide if it warranted comment. Therefore looking at a situation from all directions and make an appropriate decision. Our club doesn’t have that. It’s crystal clear that all decisions go thru DC. Who’s understanding of football is limited, is not around the club enough and rarely in the UK it seems. So until there is some business like structure at the club..no one! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe it has been looked at and it was decided that it didn’t warrant a comment? Or maybe you could point me to a official statement from any professional club that confirms or denies specific financial details of any transfer/loan that either happened or fell through? Good luck finding that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess that if we had a PR/communications manager, DOF and a chairman who had a brilliant understanding of football. Just like other clubs, we would still not release statements in reply to internet rumours regarding financial details of player sales or non-sales.

At no point have I suggested that the club should comment on rumours. However there is a grey area on that subject whereas if a rumour should become viral there is an opportunity for the club to say (for example) ‘SWFC understand there is a lot of talk about xxxx and as there has been no communication between either club we have no comment ‘ Simple communication with the fan base is what I’m looking for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
