Ipswich Programme Wins Race To The Bottom With Apostrophe Horror Show


Recommended Posts

How about this from a description for a vacancy at a large worldwide firm of accountants. Disgraceful for a firm of such standing.
Job Description:

Our clients know just how important it is to maximise and protect their personal wealth. However, the UK has some of the most complex tax legislation in the world. Over time, taxes such as income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax can also erode their wealth significantly. ***** ********** Personal Tax Compliance Unit specialises in advising client’s on how to minimise their tax liability and to ensure they are complying with their tax obligations. As the tax system is always changing, the team are skilled in keeping client’s up-to-date on developments and advise on how the changes might affect them. Throughout, they can relax knowing their tax affairs are in safe hands.

This shocker was prominent on the back page of last night's issue...

 

"Eight day's to go before your super seven hero's are in action again at Foxhall"

 

As the master of the apostrophe it's time that Norbold was called into to investigate and apprehend the offender.

Edited to save a ban?

possibly 😛

 

Tried to put together a little dot to dot for FP but it didnt stay in the format I entered originally - all the spaces were removed

 

Suppose I couldve left it - the morse code may still have had the same message 😆

Its not just the programme tho, its the overall promotion and not just at chris but those around him, the brand manager put up a video, couldn't read the writing as it changes to the next clip too quickly, said thursday instead of wednesday used words that you shouldn't use in promotion/marketing and so much more

 

Someone questioned the day and the reply was "its says check the website" but the video said thursday people won't check the web site to see if its on Wednesday when you've told them thursday on the video

 

Intentions are good but execution was really poor, if I was a big witches fan I'd be worried about who does what behind the scenes

 

It doesn't sit well with me or look great to new or existing sponsors

It was also factually incorrect in saying 0 to 60 in 3 seconds, faster than a formula 1 car. Okay is sounds good, but a modern formula 1 car can reach 60 in 1.6 seconds, but on average it's about 2.3.

 

None of that really matters though if the videos attract new customers. Would be interesting to know how many people see these clips and then attend a meeting.

It was posted about 2 hours before the meeting, poor timing, people don't just suddenly decide to go speedway on short notice

 

Its marketed to people on social media who already follow the club, so already know if they are going or not, altho the video acts as a reminder

 

How many were there last night estimated?

I've done a bit of promoting in my time just laughable how some people get it and some don't

 

I could get 3,000 at foxhall but it wouls be long term gain over short term, does louis want to put the club in the best possible position when he leaves or take the best short term solution?

 

Short term is the answer which you can't blame him for, he's not responsible for the future of the club after his tenure, and its the same with all promotions across the country hence why the sport will ultimately die 👊👊👊
