Bradford Bulls - RedAmberandBlack.net • Re: Andrew Chalmers and his social concience
Yes, huge fan of Chalmers and all he's done for us, but this stuff makes me cringe. I know there are people on here who love it when he " sticks it up 'em," but really, there's a limit.
I've been involved in Sports clubs all my adult life, and the genera policy has always been, when we play each other, you're the enemy for the duration of the match, but the rest of the time we're all in it together for the benefit of the game. Im not pretending Lenegan is a particularly endearing individual but what's to be gained by getting so confrontational? Who knows what's down the road and if we will need his support one day?
It's also just plain unprofessional. Presumably the Bulls have a social media policy for all staff? So if a 15 year old Scholarship player goes on Twitter and tells all his mates that another club are a set of w@@@@@s and their u16 coach is a t@@t, then (quite rightly) he will be sent to Mark Dunning for an almighty rollicking. All the lad has to do is point out some of the musings of the leader of the organisation and that's that. Poor old Mark left wriggling in his chair, changing the conversation!
Oh well, rough with the smooth I guess, but I wish he'd tone it down a bit.
