Can't see why a multi billion pound company would need to see the need to defend itself to some Twitter no marks

In this day and age boss i think social media has gained more consideration of companies. Their image can be irreparably damaged if any movement against them gathers momentum. I do not think that is the case here of course but the value put into communication with customers via social media is high these days.

If you look at the daily mail for some sick reason as i do every now and then they always have a front page piece on some social media issue. Often it is fluff pieces that just gets clicks. Others they can drill home and indeed give more of a platform for some happenings.

Specifically with BT i think their business model is aiming to be fresh and modern with fan interaction high on the agenda to achieving that concensus. For that i look at their fan shows and fan questions being put direct to the pundits. To their credit they do also put forward the hard questions.

Or maybe BT are just responding to what they feel is unfair criticism? I thought they showed it enough times that the FA will have to at least ask for Pawson's comments on the footage.

Maybe it is because when it is one of ours it seems to be on a 24 hour news loop until the player is banned, BT mentioned it enough times but it is also the voracity that they mention it, as sky did for Aguero's elbow, they didn't just report the incident but proclaimed it an act of thuggery, also strange that they then failed to see and say the same when flailing elbows done Zabs, it is this shall we say inconsistency in reporting that pisses people off.

On a separate but similar theme, did you hear if Utd got done for the flare being thrown ?

Last I heard they faced an enquiry but that was 15 days ago and I must have missed the result if one has genuinely been given.

Apparently because the rags were dealing with offender ?? " No action deemed necessary " !

That's Sky though, BT don't have a dedicated sports news channel to show any incident on a loop.

I binned sky off a couple of years ago and I really couldn't tell you if BT had or had not a dedicated streaming channel tbh, when our games are on BT I switch it on and then knock it off again afterwards, it costs me a 5 or 10 a month on top of internet but don't really watch a lot of tv nowadays tbh.
 
According to motd on Facebook we 'have to feel for palace'. Yes the cheating ****s who dived for the pen and kicked us off the fucking pitch.
 
Not really paid much attention to NBC coverage before, but i watched the arsenal game on their stream today and it is much more balanced. The pundits are well spoken and talk like theyve actually played the game before. No agenda, just balanced reporting. Will look out for it more.
 
Missed almost all of the Arsenal game except the last part & a bit of pre match.

Still managed to hear 3 TIMES Gary Neville say how their side was 'the best, blah blah'.

So fucking transparently obvious why.

And of course there will be some Arse folk who reciprocate "oh no Gary you are too generous, YOU were the best"

Just FUCK OFF.

Is that the one with Steve Nicoll and Craig Burley? Been watching a bit of them on YouTube and they're the best I've seen. Very plain spoken.
 
Just watching goals on Sunday and don Hutchinson is the guest and just come out with this gem..."Jose must lay his head on the pillow at night and be thinking about pep..."
Ha ha ha class.
