New Media Officer while the gun's still smoking?

Post: # 1412913Post starsign »

Press release via Club Twitter "the players are on leave but they have been communicated to"
OMG ! No wonder we are in a bloody shambles in the eyes of the media and the messages have been not been getting through.
Er.....with very basic English we communicate with not to for goodness sake.
Confusion isn't reigning down at Seaford, it's pouring!

I get that this is slightly tongue in cheek, but Luke Holmesby was a great appointment and does a great job.

Your right and maybe it wasn't him, but someone with authority in his department needs some basic grammar lessons Today's social media is very global and Twitter is right up there This looks glaringly amateurish and reflects poorly on the Club. Many would get a laugh and no doubt see the irony of it in the present climate

What?
So you are really the St Kilda F C @Stkildafc with the official club logo ?
Twittering away at the height of the moment to all and sundry with what appears as official statements and for intents and purposes the voice of the club?
Well I'll be a bloody monkeys uncle!!
You fooled me then Plugs , either that or you are the biggest biggest bullshite artist going around
Perhaps I've got that right too you old goat
Do you twitter away also pretending to be our mighty Ormond Football Club as well?
Methinks your pulling my leg old son or you have delusions of grandeur
Even BM wouldn't pull a stunt like that!

Hi starsign, personally I avoid Twatterfaces like the plague that they are, however, I agree totally with your concerns re the timing, and hence irony, of that grammatical error/or maybe typo... IMHO you're :wink: not an idiot. :)


It's Dave, man. Will you open up? I got the stuff with me! -------Who?
Dave, man. Open up ------------------------------------------ -----Dave???
Yeah, Dave. ---------------------------------------------------------Dave's not here.

99% of twitter and social media isn't Luke. He also isn't the media manager, that's Bree Gallagher. Luke is just a football writer.
