I think this fiasco will do GR more harm than the protest itself. What a wretched, petty, irresponsible and idiotic reaction. Will he be sacking John Ladler too for daring to describe things that are happening at the game?

Any chance the actual lads who normally run the twitter can come on and let us know exactly what happened?

I'd also suggest a club official give their side if they can.

Another sad day for all of us.

There is supposed to be a new chain of command from communication with Bill Waterson.

The walkout was discussed by myself and Bill and I can't repeat what was said but he was made aware that many people including the club mascot and some of the social media team would do so.

Midway through our coverage we were locked out.



I believe that Bill Waterson was unable to attend the Stalybridge match and I would be hugely surprised if he was the mastermind behind this peevish act.




He wasn't cult. My point being Bill heads up communication, and a decision clearly made without his say

Who is doing the twitter updates now

Andrew Flynn has been re-assigned the new password.

Not sure whether Jacque has.

I have not.

And still we here nothing from Bill Waterson?

An explanation for this fiasco would be good

There is a valid reason why Bill has yet to comment on yesterday or the programme article or the forum.

I have spoken to Bill this morning and I'm sure when he gets the opportunity, he will take the opportunity to make a statement on the issues.

I look forward to it, a lot hinges on it. I appreciate Bill is a busy man.

Can't really follow this thread. How can a password be changed on an account when a user is logged in?

Tweets went out until the 56th minute I think, so what happened then? Someone was logged in, using their password.

Baffled by technology...

Now I've read the tweets I'm not surprised access was pulled. Whoever was tweeting was clearly tweeting with an anti establishment agenda and intent on using an official communication channel to support the protest and its agenda.

If you'd been on stage the hook would have been coming out to yank you off.

If this was a business (which it is) you'd be looking at a disciplinary. You can't operate in an official or semi official capacity and diss the product.

Not completely true. I was handed the new password late last night and used it to update the account with full time score and a link to the match report which includes the attendance figure (league requirement.)

I'm currently considering my position following yesterday's events and won't be providing any content in the mean time.

I may be missing something, but I can't see anything offensive or even "anti-establishment" in the tweets.
There was a walk out, numerous other people supported it, and the game was quiet subsequently. They are all neutral and accurate statements which I have paraphrased rather than repeated word for word.

Genuine question - is the 'problem'  in one of these tweets or elsewhere?

Untrue. The Twitter account provided impartial coverage of events taking place within the ground during the time of the game. There is clearly no agenda within the updates as they are merely factual statements.

If you find there to be an agenda in what you've read, then I suggest you feel the same way about the text updates on the club's official website? They made mention of the events before anything was put on Twitter.
