super_carson Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Aye, the Somerset Boab stuff is pretty embarrassing. If he's just doing announcements and that's it, then fair enough but I doubt it'd end there. The issue is that previously he made it about him, just seemed that he was wanting all the attention. I mind the songs before a game against Rangers, don't think he realised it was a football game and not the headline slot at Glastonbury. If the club are serious about growing as a 'brand' then they need to think very carefully about these kind of things. I personally find it painfully cringeworthy Butlins-esque patter that is very dated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franny and Olly left midway through the 2nd half. My cousins weans were wanting to see them and get the pic of them and the lads from the open day signed Missed the 2nd goal as I had a load of fat heads in front of me who were sheltering from the rain. Frankie was talking to a steward and I heard him say the trialist was a guy named Ethan but he couldnt remember his surname Bit odd players leaving during the game. Not giving us enough to go on there - poor that no one has got the trialist yet! 21 minutes ago, Finlay21 said: Sometimes like most companies jobs are advertised internally first , Not exactly one to ordinarily suck up, but yeah that is entirely fair and businesses of all kinds should be giving their own staff/volunteers etc opportunities to progress where appropriate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted July 8, 2023 Author Share Posted July 8, 2023 I’ve had a look for any Ethan’s that are currently unattached but none bear any resemblance to the guy that was playing today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was his last Instagram update? The less said about the notion that Big Professional Club Ayr United have had to look at Roberts-era grifters because their previous announcer departed due to Mecca Bingo getting shut the better.

Thank f**k they didn't. Imagine the slagging the club would have got. Missed kick off on purpose that day to avoid that c**t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, he has been an absolute walloper in the past. Access he shouldnt be given, went in a huff and disappeared until now. Today he made a joke about Stranraer player Kyle being from Girvan... Yep Kyle Girvan Official attendance was "absolute hunners" Needs to get a bit more professional if he wants the gig full time imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to a few posters on here contacting the club and volunteering their time time do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not enough people have applied after an internal advertisement, then you need to externally advertise the role, not just pick the only internal person who fancies it regardless of suitability. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
