I'm devastated that Gavin Carney has quite as the announcer, such a sad situation.

Reading a quote from him,it seemed to me it wasn't just the situation about the whole night but also about some fans.Something about he gets why people screamed at him.But some fans need to realise there are ways to act towards human beings,and many got that massively wrong.

I know if that was me taking sh*t from the fans that would have given me the urge to quit.

I never know if you are trying to shift the blame away from the club intentionally or unintentionally.

 

In no way should supporters be blamed for his decision to quit. Fact is Gavin has integrity and respect, and unfortunately he feels it was compromised on more than one occasion by the club.... NOT the supporters.

 

The fact supporters released their desperate frustrations on him says more about the way they have been treated. In all my years at the club the one thing I never had to worry about was that, I would in fact say they were the most respectfully and happy set of fans I had the pleasure in ever meeting.

Fans may have shouted at GC solely because of their frustration at not being able to talk sensibly with members of the management ( except in the end of match "conference" - which not all can attend or feel that their point is taken note of in ). Of course no one should abuse anyone, in any role at the club, but why not have a two way channel of communication which fans can feel that their point of view and ideas are at least being considered .

 

Some simple ideas that would cost very little but would bring about better fan enjoyment have long been ignored e.g. the sound in the main stand where the music is too loud and commentary / interviews far too faint.It may not be about new P.A. equipment but about tweaking and using effectively what is there. Hardly matters what GC or anyone says if you can't hear them.

Caring the best way possible for the paying customer ( within reason ) must be on the club agenda somewhere?

So you feel it was ok for supporters to vent their anger at him.If they had a problem the anger should be vented at the right people,the people in charge.Not at a micman who was doing all he could in his job role.

I don't think it was ok.But........Some fans vented at Gavin because the Lynn promotion didn't do what they should of done,and he was there I guess.Buster/Lyon should of come out on the mike at the start of all the carp starting,and explaind things..Not ok but can understand their frustration at being left in the dark.

Gavin didn't derserve it and I don't think he would of got it had the above happened.

I still feel anger should be channeled at the right people though.

Lyon can't be to blame are can he? He may have been there in body ( someone said he was ) but not in spirit. Will he make a statement after Cardiff just like Holder? He is a master at carpet sweeping ( under the carpet ).
