Given the continued under performance of this business the directors have decided to embark on a intensive period of re-sturrockification.
This will involve the 2 hardest working yet modestly talented members of the team becoming central to the ongoing stratregy. One of the previous incumbents of this role has been retired due to old age and bad hair. They will be ably supported by our dynamic front 2 in sales who have performed admirably so far this year under difficult circumstances.
Our back office team has been instructed to stop getting involved in sales and to focus on what they are paid to do. This has worked well in the last week where there has not yet been a serious individual error leading to a loss making situation. The back office team has also been instructed to forward sales leads to the sales team much quicker than before, bypasssing the now redundant bad haired middle man.
Brilliant work CT. There you go juddie, do one like that for the next blog! |

I'll make an effort to leave a comment, when I get round to signing up to their site. That'll show 'em!!
You can tell them I read your article more than I read their magazine!

It's been on a downward spiral for years. The day before the sponsorship announcement I vowed never to buy it again. I now suscribe. |

I've bought it twice since the deal.
It's a bit expensive when all you read is the Swindon articles.......

Two kmain problems: 1) it has no competitor and 2) it's not their fault, because it's the way football is going, but everything is commercially driven. All interviews are organised through launches, everything has a commercial angle. What we need is something between 442 and When Saturday Comes IMO.
I'd love to get my hands on FourFourTwo and sort it out.

Can anyone remember a mag called 'The Onion Bag'?
I quite liked that.

Total Football was great, but it seemed to go downhill quickly. To be honest, what killed off Total Football was football going gay (and internet forums).
Juddie, you are doing your bit to boost tourism in Swindon. Anyone would think Swindon was the Amsterdam of the West.
