To all the MEN staff following this debacle on Bluemoon.
David Lynch. I will not buy the MEN or visit your website again whilst you are employed by the paper. I am sure other City fans will take a similar stance. I will only hear that you have been removed from the paper if Stuart or someone else comes on here and mentions it, maybe in another thread. You can print this off and put it in your dossier for your next performance appraisal if you like.
Mike Keegan and Stuart Brennan. We appreciate not all MEN journalists are City fans, and we accept this. We can accept criticism when it is fair, and we appreciate all the positive stuff written about the club especially by Stuart. But I (and I am sure many others) will no longer put up with your newspaper if you allow this sort of rubbish to be printed or published online.
Both your contributions to this thread can only be seen as damage limitation, well after the horse has bolted. Your article Stuart was so rushed that you allowed it to go out without being checked properly. But there was no apology, and you can both see that you have deeply offended a large percentage of your target audience. When will we see an apology?
Good post, may i add to it ?
Stuart you mention the web team is semi independent, ok fine.
However is this not a perfect example of a half baked system of quality control basically ?
I pay a shed load to have the stuff we send out tested to iso bullshit standards in the name of quality control and i alone check the results.
This stage of the process is vital, absolutley vital mate in any business. You mess this stage up and you look a complete mug to whoever buys your product.
Decentralized qc does not work, it creates to many variables/opportunities for error.
This appears to be a corruscating example imo.
