Apologies if people saw this on Twitter last night but I found Jed's tweets regarding the Adver absolutely mind boggling and hilarious in their bullshit at the same time... if this is the reason the club are only releasing news via the OS/Twitter and BBC Wiltshire then it's pretty fucking shameful: JedMcCoy @JedMcCoy 12h @Gypsyalex1990 we will get there .. Big changes take time for all to heal ... Just a bit hard for my family to read the advertiser ..!!.. https://twitter.com/JedMcCoy/status/369530853723881473JedMcCoy @JedMcCoy 12h @Gypsyalex1990 social media forum beneath the stories ... Negativity affects potential sponsors .. https://twitter.com/JedMcCoy/status/369539380420939776JedMcCoy @JedMcCoy 11h @stfcnickw @Gypsyalex1990 yeah had some issue with companies abroad who have reviewed the advertiser forums .. https://twitter.com/JedMcCoy/status/369550687706697728Was it Dave Allen at Sheffield Wednesday who tried to get their fans forum shut down? |

I noticed that Jed was Tweeting last night about the negativity of posters on the Thisis site becoming a real issue for him. His family are (rightly) upset by the amount of personal abuse and he says that potential foreign investors have been put off after reading the posts!
Although I stopped reading the posts on Thisis some months ago (because it became a futile and pointless waste of my time), Jed, his family and any potential foreign investors out there need to remember that there is only a small handful of posters on that site and they almost certainly 'represent' less than 1% of the STFC fanbase!

No comments page under the Cooper either. Jed got to them, he got to them...

Not exactly inspired by this, but theres no point moaning as we can do fuck all about it.
Anyone see Jeds tweets about the adver forum causing us problems with potential sponsors?
Hilarious

Read to me like it was the comments under the articles Jed had/has an issue with, not the Adver themselves.

It does. Mostly because that's exactly what he means. I wondered whether this was why Sam has complained a few times about the club dicking the Adver around when it comes to embargoed news, not getting news on signings and so on. |

When things are made worse that they were before, even for good reason, some proportion of people will moan. Its normal human nature. If people think it would be different at another club I believe they are pissing into the wind.
Add to that allegations of being a feeder club, being dictated on style of play, manager having no say in players coming in, new manager walking out during pre-season, etc, etc.
In summary, they may be unfair comments but what did he expect. Some people are naturally glass half empty in outlook.

I take personal credit for driving away Intel, Burmah and Nationwide with a few choice swear words on here.
What bullshit!
I don't believe in personal attacks though and that cuts both ways...ref the fans being referred to as morons when mcmoan was in charge.

I think it was more the Fredi type allegations he is referring to. It was mentioned a few weeks ago.

I don't think it's the ordinary "armchair manager" type comments that are at issue. Every club gets these (especially Arsenal at the moment). It's more likely to be the personal attacks, allegations, etc. There is no place for those.
