Our media team needs sacking

Post by Fellowo »

Don't like to see anyone lose their jobs, but enough is enough.

Time and time again mistakes are made and last night was no exception.

As many of us no doubt saw on Twitter, not only was Archibald named twice but the shirt number was wrong.

Then to add insult to injury, Barry Galvin got Peter Allen's age wrong, saying that he was 72.

I know we all make mistakes, but many of those the media team make would be easily avoidable if they just stopped and reread what they had written.

Time to get OFF in. Not only would he get the basics right but he would inject some humour and passion into the role.

Just unforgivable, orient fans would have been left to wonder if one of the other players had married Archibald and taken his name or if we'd signed another player with that name. The confusion would have been intolerable. I was one of many who couldn't sleep last night without knowing how old Peter Allen really is, heads must roll!


Times up, media plonkers!

I feel the EFL should be informed of our media goings on and put in place a points reduction as soon as possible

… followed by a tirade demanding people lose their jobs for a couple of minor errors.
