  • Sensitive information

    I applaud this site's policy on sensitive information regards current players.

    Can I ask if there is a similar policy relating to sensitive information regards managers, past or present.

    I wondered, because I came across the following comments on your site recently:

    31 Mar - "Sousa wouldn't have a job if GP wasn't involved"

    31 Mar - "Sousa is a dead man walking. And it has nothing to do with GP...if only you knew"

    2 Apr - "Sousa is walking a tightrope"

    2 Apr - "Can I be blatant? Sousa is getting the boot at some point. Him and Flavio have fell out, rightly or wrongly and that's that"

    2 Apr - you really really don't know what's going on do you? Sousa STILL has a job thanks to GP FFS"

    Pete, would you agree that this appears to be sensitive and confidential information which can only originated from the club? It is interesting to note that these comments were made before Sousa's "chat to a fan" and before his comments about Blackstock.

    It was also interesting to see that all these comments were made by one person. But I was then shocked to notice that this person is actually an administrator on this board.

    Do you agree that this isn't the sort of information that an administrator on your board should be making public? Do you agree that you as owner of the site have ultimate responsibility for the behaviour and comments of the site's administrators? Did you ask your administrator to evidence his source for these comments, showing you the evidence of approval from the club to release them into the public domain? And if he didn't have such evidence, why did you not ask him to withdraw them? Or is he simply a liar and fantasist, posting this sort of stuff to make him look like he's "in the know"?

    You assured me on this board today that you had no prior knowledge that the club wanted to get rid of Sousa. The statements made are either true, or they are lies which would come pretty close to the definition of "propaganda".

    Which is it?

    Confidential information?
    Looks like speculation and wishful thinking to me.
    Banning people is no longer my hobby,
    but take a look at my photo blog:

      Can't see any "may" or "might" or "IMO" in any of those statements. Nothing speculative there at all, they are definitive statements, made not by any old first time poster, but an administrator on here.

        So basically what you are saying is that you trust Pete's every word?

          It wasn't Pete.

          And whatever way you look at it - the statements imply one of two things.

          a) the originator did know what he was talking about - ergo "sensitive info"
          b) the originator didn't know - ergo "attention seeking"

          So which one is it?

            What I'm saying is that Paulo Sousa would be very interested to know if a decision had been taken to remove him prior to him making comments (allegedly) which the club subsequently used to justify his sacking and avoid paying him compensation.

              He did make those comments solely because he had enough of the way the club was being run. Paldini is a crook and so is briatore

                Poison.

                There is something rotten at the core of the club.

                Sousa could have turned things around,but we will have to put up with a yes-man.

                i hope that those responsible are proud of themselves.

                      Which could exactly be applied to the quotes attributed to the "smoking gun" posting.

                      Which is it, exactly, as there is certainly confusion and moving goalposts here?

                        Manager talks to fans about sensitive information regarding players and it's a sackable offence.

                        Club insider talks to messageboard administrator about sensitive information regarding manager. Isn't the situation identical?

                          Now you're online Pete, perhaps I can have an answer to this.

                            There is no way in hell that is the reason why Sousa was sacked. That is completely ridiculous. How could a football team SACK a manager because of a few things somebody says, not even ANY quotes (nor evidence) on a messageboard?!

                              Have you read the Offish?

                              Anyhow, let's not be deflected from the purpose of this thread. I'm sure Pete is working on a response as we speak.
