Here's one for the club spies..

Please, Please, Please stop releasing the same press release every week, but with a different player/club official conducting it.

You're starting to alienate us by telling us that we'll be going well this week, and that you're going to put in one hell of a performance. Problem is, you don't give us that performance.

Be honest with us, if you think things aren't going well, tell us they aren't going well. We don't want to here the same rubbish every week about how good we can be, we want to SEE how good we can be and that is more important that a press release.

Show us on the pitch, instead of in the press.

Absolutley spot on.

I wish they'd stop just putting a different players comments in each week. Excuses and improvements.....

Scruton did it, Morrison etc.. It better not keep happening all season. If we win is it going to be. "Menzies praises confident Bulls performance"

Sigh. Can we just create a thread for all responses to Bulls press releases and the like?

What on christs Earth are they meant to come out and say if they didn't say this? The whole point of coming out and speaking to the media is to be positive. I'm pretty sure the players are wanting to improve, so they are speaking the truth.

Based on the previous year and the last 2 games, it doesn't really look that way. :?

So you really think the players are just thinking, "oh wait, we don't really, and don't want to improve."

If so, you should get some perspective. Oh wait, it's probably Macca poisoning the players minds eh?

I think you`re rather missing the point Ewen. The interviews are really what I`d call `nothing` interviews; they are only there because the T&A knows that it needs some Bulls interest every few days, just to maintain the interest of fans and so keep up sales.

I don`t think a player saying "we`re doomed, we`re doomed" to the local paper would go down too well, and in any case there is much that is positive to be said and as has already been pointed out, it is only the truth.






Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
