To save anyone having to access the Daily Mail
"A League One club with an average gate of less than 8,000, Swindon have nevertheless decided they don’t need help with their publicity so this season their manager Mark Cooper will speak only to the club website. We in the independent media look forward to ignoring them."
Probably fair enough really, if we have a cup run it'll be really interesting to see how the policy holds up to national interest.

Just because they're contemptible doesn't mean they aren't right.

Dunno why they're complaining, they'll probably just hack Power's phone for news anyway.

Since when have the Daily Mail given lower league clubs any coverage?

Evening all,
Loads of interesting points on this thread and many from either 'side' which are understandable. For us in "The Media", there is the point of precedent to be considered. I imagine most of us will have something more substantial to say next week but for now, like I've mentioned on Twitter, I'd ask you to contemplate the ideas of accountability, community and legacy. Many will see that as self-defence; I honestly see them (as a fan) as very real issues to consider.
The great British public, make their feelings known about journos, in the results of this MORI survey, on the subject of trust, which I'd suggest pretty much covers the ideas of accountability, community and legacy. The % rating shows results over a 30 year period, from the most trusted doctors to the least trusted... journos. Occupations. Doctors 89% Teachers 86% Professors 77% Judges 75% Scientists 67% Clergyman/Priests 75% Television news readers 68% The Police 61% Ordinary man/ woman in the street 56% Pollsters 48% Civil Servants 43% Trade Union Officials 36% Business Leaders 28% Politicians generall 19% Government Ministers 18% Journalists 17%You should go and have a chat with Justin Tomlinson about it. |

The point remains that the club seem to view press relations as a one-way stream, with no apparent benefits to them. I think they'll be proved comprehensively wrong.

But whatever info the club release will automatically be rehashed by other media.
Any stories the club may want to keep quiet, the media will have to fish for just as before

I think most of us know that'll be the case. |

Not reading the Daily Hate Mail is no loss. We could protest outside their big building in DIdcot if we felt like it.
Does the alleged press ban mean that there will be no pics of STFC games, and the Adver will resort to using Subbuteo figures again to re-enact crucial moves for use in their paper!

no I don't think it's that severe, more a lack of access to stfc staff other than post match (football league obligation).
that's how I understand it.
own goal.
