big al Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I’m in a group chat with some diehard Cowden fans, and the general feeling is disappointment there’s no communication, explanation, clarity or whatever you want to call it over the signing of Craig Thomson. The club is danger of alienating some fans without communication over this. Would also like to say that there’s no appetite from most football fans I speak to for the 2 Glasgow bigot brothers to have B teams in the league, and would hope the club continues its previous stance of voting against this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appologies if I am incorrect but did any of Craig Thomsons previous clubs issue a "statement/expmation" around his signing for them? I dont think they did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryHill Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I don't think a statement is required. I think the signing speaks for itself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big al Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Don’t really care what other clubs do. If the club don’t care that some fans won’t return then fine, that’s up to them I suppose. The club closed the Facebook page to comments after the signing announcement, so they are fully aware that there is an issue with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only coo in the village Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Of course the club don’t have to say anything about signing him apart from the usual brief statements they issue after bringing players in. “ We are proud to announce that we have signed a convicted sex offender “ doesn’t really cut it. It’s a like it or lump it situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folk will make their own minds up as you say, and no doubt a few fans will be lost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somey Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 The club don't need to make statement but it would have been nice to see one or even kept the comments on the Facebook page. This signing does not sit right with me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This signing does not sit right with me. A lot of them weren't comments though, they were abuse. Not sure if social media falls under the club's Unacceptable Conduct policy but some of those "comments" would have breached it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
