tbh, every captain in the country will have spiel put out written by the pr guys with their name added to it.  can't see the massive deal here

Pretty innocuous comments that only praise him, bizarre.

 

It just highlights how casually they'll lie about the most inconsequential things. Absolute scumbags.

The club's PR is so f***ing poor, man. It's like NVQ levels of marketing. Everything they do has huge holes in it. So much so they don't even need much effort to see through.

 

Really rank stuff :lol:

 

:lol:

I guess the issue is the possibility that Colo was genuinely pissed about the situation and wouldn't have been prepared to back such a statement.

Not sure on the timing but it seems like a pretty obvious and cynical attempt to reply to the comments he's made about how NUFC didn't appreciate what he gave to the club.

 

If it's a bunch of made up shite then he's within his rights to point that out.

Colo and Jonás are really close, and those comments are really impersonal. Doesn't surprise me Jonás asked him about it.

 

I mean, if I'm pissed about how I've been treated and my mate joins in the hollow pageantry dished out by the club, I would ask him about it.

Well after years and years of following many different sports religiously, this is the first time I'm hearing about such behaviour. Do you mean by the captain's own PR guys, or in your mind has it always been the case of the club or national team writing out Shakespearean prose and signing it off as the Cap'n?

 

A rather confusing comment about yet another situation that highlights how the current club regime is like North Korea and continue to lie to us at every opportunity.

Well Jonas seems fairly convinced that Colo won't mind him telling everyone. :lol:

Of course, I have no problem with the PR team writing content and working with or at least showing the Captain the content, and only publishing it after approval from the supposed author, but that doesn't seem to be the case in this scenario, as Colo seems to have denied the whole thing :lol:

What's he stucking it to them for though? Saying Colo wishes him well? I agree with how bad the club is but that seems a weird one.

 

Jonas loves the club. Doesn't want to leave. Gets fired on the phone. His good friend, who has been with him through thick and thin releases a dead eyed statement filled with platitudes instead of being upset at how his friend has been treated over the last tumultuous year. Jonas goes up to Colo and asks "What the fuck?" Finds out the entire bullshit statement is a lie. Tells us about it because he's fucking beautiful.

I think this is just another example of the club being outed as an impersonal, insincere, uncaring and cold organisation. They don't give a single fuck about the people at/in the organisation and everything is done a a means to an end, no emotion, no empathy, keep the illusion going enough to keep the status quo. Like the Wizard of Oz being revealed as just a bloke pedalling away trying to maintain the charade and failing miserably.

 

Utter, utter cunts to a man.

Yup, very well put. That's my take on it.
