Zatman Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I said it before, he seems to like the Twitter attention and love from fans a bit too much and needs get it in check it will end up like the General and probably go downhill even quicker 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Rightly or wrongly, Bennett commented on Xia's tweets (admittedly, he later posted a fairly unconvincing retraction), and said he considered them disrespectful. I'd be amazed if there aren't others in the squad who think the same. Xia needs to wind his neck in. Edited August 28, 2016 by Davkaus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he rustles feathers and gets the shit out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to get in to debating the merits of Bennett's performances for us, but he spent years here, he no doubt has mates in the squad, probably still talks to a few of them, and I imagine they're equally unimpressed with the owner publicly mouthing off about details that are usually confidential. The Holloway tweets, today's 'liking' a tweet that we need a new keeper. We're 5 games in, I dread to think what this dude is going to be saying publicly after a few more losses. He needs the PR team to filter this shit, he shouldn't be posting things in the heat of the moment, and based on the frequency with which he deletes his posts, he realises this to some degree.

Villarocker Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I guess this more important thing that needs addressing is the goalkeeper then. I wonder if that's just his view based on what he's seen and what the fans have said or, has someone amongst the backroom staff said something. U guess time will tell and we'll know his feelings if a new keeper comes in before the end of the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying nothing many other fans and pundits aren't already saying in the public domain. I'm not focusing on one person's performances, but generally those "insulted" will be guilty of the dross on the pitch so good ridden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think the owner of the club should be held to a higher standard, and should guard his words, slightly more than some random jackass on a forum? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't like it, they can follow him out the door. I think what he's doing is good, so much more transparency and communication with the fans, which is necessary after last season. It'll slow down when the transfer window closes, so keep your hair on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He **** up, and he **** up often, he knows it himself, yet he keeps on posting before he engages his brain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct, I don't. Tiptoeing around the rot in our club has been our problem. About time these Donna's are told how it is, if I'm shit at my job my bosses would tell me so.
