welshmagpie Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 It’s pretty bad, I agree. I’m generally a bit fed up the lack of professionalism when it comes to certain clubs’ social media as well. One of the clubs featured in that email today tweeted about their fixture but tagged somebody completely random instead of @challengecup and have also spelled two of their players’ names incorrectly in their squad list.

The point is, if I did inform them, it would be too late, the emails have already been sent, and its embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginalMrC Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Think this is a bit unfair, mistakes do happen occasionally, and it's not the end of the world. Even corporations with huge multi million pound marketing budgets make mistakes. I think the RFL marketing team do a pretty great job overall on what I imagine to be a very small budget.

I'm not really criticising individuals because, yes, we all know that there aren't enough of them and they are working with hands tied behind their back. But ... when I see mistakes from larger corporations they are normally quickly corrected and/or not part of a pattern of errors. Or, more pertinently, brands that keep getting things wrong or who look unprofessional, I don't buy from. We're on a messageboard for rugby league so we'll overlook it. It's drip drip drip failing to anyone who is a more casual fan on the list. Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
