McRightSide Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 3 minutes ago, Mystic Neg said: I'm afraid you've picked the wrong person to talk to about reputational risk. The difference between an employee doing it and a joe public doing it is that part of an employees contract includes a code of conduct and ethics, that you as an employee are agreeing to. You can be sacked if you breach them and rightly held to account for damaging the company. Freedom of speech entitles joe public to say pretty much whatever they want and if it's about your business it's largely because you are under-delivering on expectations and your customers are dissatisfied. Reputational risk is something that you can only mitigate by treating your customers well and fairly and ensuring you have plenty of good stories to tell to the press, not bad ones and all influenced by business operations. The better you do that, the less reputational damage you suffer. Only a fool would think that they can rely on all members of the public without exception to apply a bit of common sense, eh Boris? What is true though is that it often only takes a minority to spoil things for everyone. That’s one element only. Now talk about brand heat, sentiment and perception Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinnishOwl Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 So he did the interview just to tell us that it was we who screwed it up? Did he have anything to announce? Or will that happen around midnight, which would be about now? Monk is good because Thai people generally like having monks around? Bruce is bad because Bruce is a name for an Aussie bloke from the backwoods? Jos is good because his name in Finnish means "If"? Come on..quench my thirst for information.

What's the difference between customers slagging off M&S and an employee slagging off M&S? One works there and draws a salary from there, and the other pays for a product or service there. While fans may not find alternative clubs to support, they'll certainly find alternative ways to spend their money as seen with attendances slowing dropping. He's asking people what not to write on the internet? Good luck with that. No not at all. Whether you draw a salary or not, words matter and either way they can lose a business deal that were in the pipeline. If you want to make a statement and protest, then follow your own advice and not spend your money, but write to the club privately to tell them why, rather than bringing the club into disrepute.

More from the on field managers and coaches. More from Paxio. (I don't know how to spell it ) More from the fans. More from himself. More from the EFL. More from the government. In fact the only ones carrying any of the load at the moment are Chansiri and Di Marco; That may have a little further to run. Doffing your cap to the autocratic entitled son of a millionaire whose prime - some would say only - quality is a wealthy father. Surely not.

They are the ones who can actually do something about it. Otherwise you are just shouting into the ether on twatter waiting to hear an echo.

I never started trying Mark. I was waiting for you to summarise things for me in a few sentences. Unlike everyone else, I’m too bloody busy working. No furloughing for me. Been working through this bloody nonsense since day 1. Is the bottom line, nowt’s changed in any way, we’re still pretty much hook-a-ducked and Monk and the players are the best things since sliced Father Ted? Further more we should be grateful for what we are about to receive Amen? Edited November 5, 2020 by theowlsman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 The main takeaway from all that is that DC isn’t going to change his ways. The brutal assessment is that his current ways have got us bottom of the league with a points deduction, and a squad with very little value. You can spin all this is whatever way you wish. It’s not about blame, it’s about facts. I fear the worst on so many levels. I’ve never doubted DC’s intentions but his reluctance to adapt the way this football cub is run will be his, and our, downfall. I wish him the very best of luck, but this isn’t going to end well. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spondon Owl Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 2 hours ago, wakefieldowl said: I feel sorry for DC after reading thecomments on here. Hes ploughing a small fortune in to this club, to keep it going, at a time when the world is in crisis. All i see here is his words being totally twisted. Id be in a mind to say f*** you and abandon the club, if i read this thread, in his shoes Its appalling really and shows that people have no real appreciation for working in a high pressure environment. The unfortunate thing is someone is I dont imagine people will actually listen to the jnterview. They will take as gospel the commentary provided by people on this thread. DC is not doing a good job, but he is doing a thankless job atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
