[foxinsocks]

the digital media thing is interesting - a few years back this got discussed at FCC.  The aim was to make the club portal the place for everything lcfc.  I argued thatt his would not happen unless they were prepared to include challenging and and independent content.

In reality this is never going to happen. I just never watch any interviews on LCFC TV because you know what you're going to get: safe as houses Q&As that you learn nothing from. 

 

I think the direction it should go is more to the personality of the players and staff, it's something that the club can offer that external agencies can't (although Sky are allowed in every now and then and do a good job with fun quizzes etc) but to me, having access to the players regularly and time to plan little fun segments would be gold dust.

 

The area has grown from drumming up support and interest locally when we were in the Championship to help fill the KP, to national focus and now we have a global market that we need to plan carefully for the social media/ media content side of things.

 

Segments with Suengchitthawon, for example, could be targeted at Thailand and other players elsewhere... You wouldn't just want to bang out the same type of content to everywhere so lots of research into cultural differences would be needed so you can cater for the global market. 

 

I'd imagine this area is a lot more complex than it once was.

Single criterion:

Must be able to get it over the first defender at least once every game.

(Would prefer someone who can achieve the former without it flying over everyone and running out for a goal-kick on the far side)

In fairness, I can cross a football. 
 

I’d be static for the rest of the game though.

So basically Maddison but who can cross a ball?

 

Sign him up.

[cruzFOX]

I imagine most of us could do the match stewards job even as a 2nd job. I'd give it a go if I was living back home in Leicester. why not?
