chris182 6,279 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Hard as it is to forget, last season is gone and it's now time to move on with positivity. Let's hope the leadership have learned their lessons with this particular PR blip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 The article said "reception".I was trying to dumb it down for you.Regardless of how it's dressed up in the article I think we all know it was an end of season party.As I've said already I feel Murray is just using this as a way of deflecting from the unprofessional way in which these players were informed that they wouldn't be getting new contracts. For the record, I agree 100% with the decision not to give any of them new contracts but they should have been called into a meeting and told face to face.I'm amazed that it's being spun as some sort of negative that the players never showed up anyway. Remember the reaction we all had when they showed up to a reception after the Ramsdens Cup final defeat? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the reaction we all had when they showed up to a reception after the Ramsdens Cup final defeat?I'm sure there were balloons everywhere.You are right PM is, perhaps the same way the players ducked away from a planned face to face meeting to support their holiday pay claim. If we are going to be cynical let's do it across he board.A reception at the end of the season was the least the players could manage. Simmo and Robinson must have looked right mugs as the only representation of the team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUEDIGNITY 33,638 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 BREAKING NEWS: End of season reception party laid on by Paul murray snubbed by players but luckily one mans misfortune was another mans gain, apparently local food banks received a hunner pounds worth of Iceland food for the less fortunate, a spokeman said jist a pity they couldnae have stretched tae a kerry oot as well !

Ozblue 4,331 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Only the OP said "party" in the title.I'm sure there's normally a gathering of employees at the end of the season, not just successful ones.I'm fucking glad somebody on here is on the ball. The article clearly stated it was an end of season Reception, which every club has,even ones that get relegated.The OP better get his finger out or he will be a candidate for the "shifty eyes" emoticon.

Logan_RFC 57 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Who really gives a fuck? The majority played like they didn't want to be here so fuck them.

Leeds_Bear 8,100 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I was meaning it was unprofessional of Murray if he was going to use this "gathering" or whatever you want to call it to inform the players that their contracts wouldn't be renewed.I don't think the players not turning up was unprofessional at all.Karaoke Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merely as an opportunity for the board to thank them for their efforts, albeit the fell short of our expectations. Assuming this reception was arranged, and I have no reason to doubt it was, then for the players released to be bleating to the press they were not treated well at their release is out of order.

Tontospal 1,116 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Bigger story is surely why the two reserve goalies weren't invited to the real party at Nandos.Also no surprise that Murray couldn't even organise a party. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It was thought they could have said their farewells to the staff and Paul Murray, who had organised the get together, planned to thank them personally for their efforts and wish those who were leaving the best of luck in the future."Try reading the article first next time Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballochger 36 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 To be fair if photos leaked of players at a party after the game fans would have flipped the way we did when the clown was living it up on karaoke No one comes out of this situation good Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
