This thread really comes from another as they usually do. The thread "This goes beyond mere footballing rivalry " and the following debate got me thinking of our Public Relations department and really who is it and what do they do? And I'm not slating them here. My curiosity led me to Celticfc.net, a site with more than just a typical fans daily digest. Everything is covered from the first line of communication in Supporters Liason Officer John Paul Taylor, child welfare, Celtic.net and Celtic tv , matchday enquiries, brand protection right through to corporate advisors, solicitors and so on all have their own section on Celtic.Net. why am I reading all this ? Reason is more than a few of us are calling for the club to call out '(yet again) the inconsistencies and red tape unsportsmanlike injustices we have been subjected to already this season. Having gone through the site , a good informative one at that, I've noticed, or rather I failed to notice any part of the site that I would consider proactive in shooting down the constant snipes at the club. Back to the thread title and 'we do our talking on the field 'and anything else is a just petty and being bad losers. I couldn't disagree more with that last bit. Sure we dont need nor want a PR dept scrutinizing every challenge . This season however is not the same as we all knew would be the case even pre-covid. My big long point is shouldn't we have someone in a proper proactive PR position? Is it lenny or sutton , hartson or Michael Stewart's job to stand up for the club , I think not though they do a good job. We as a club are being undermined by the Scottish government,.and police Scotland on top of the SMSM ('think about that) and we really ought to have a better proactive response team in place to have our response " This of course is open season upon us and of course many things dont deserve any response. However recently as weve come under more attack from all angles I think a PR team to respond quickly to any nonsense
