Yeah the ban was quickly rescinded. The whole thing was handled very poorly, unbanning the Post quickly was the right decision, it'll all be forgotten about now.

Absolutely because the Post is a fans insight and its us who suffer, like I mentioned I doubt the Post would be overly bothered. They could do much of what they do without attending, so the ban would have had zero effect - bar punishing our own fans who purchase the paper.

Publicity stunt? Misunderstanding? Can't stick to their words?

Over reaction of the highest order but I think it says more about our chairman than the people behind the Post. Clearly it made him unhappy, I hope they sit down and talk.

Otherwise I feel it will be daggers for both.

Considering how quick Notts were to revoke the decision to ban The Nottingham Post, I must say I am suprised to see the article making print considering they deleted the article quite quickly themselves.

There's nothing like bad press to see a few papers.

Even if they had time to pull the piece from the print, I doubt they would have. Crafty swine's!

I agree with this, the story is idea for selling papers and I was more suprised not to see it make the back page. As it stands, less will read it because of that.

People scan the back pages and often put it down.

Front and back are the money spinners.

There would be reason not to print the story, did they include updated information? If the Post didn't I think they would be pushing their luck.

i think it needs dropping, what do the mods think? i would close this now myself.

Er... why? 

I don't honestly see any reason to close this thread @liampie

@tonyhatley you may want to delete a couple of your replies tho

Swindon Advertiser has been banned from County Ground for a long time after a fall out with the Chairman. Thought to be based around consistent negative reporting.

Media ban now more general with social media Fanzai site preferred option.

I do not use Fanzai, live 30 miles+ from Swindon and do feel rather detached from day to day happenings.

This made us a laughing stock and its bad business, if its to make a valid point stick to it but to back down so quickly shows how pathetically it was handled.

I felt quite ashamed because of this.

Lol, I've deleted them @liampie, that's what happens when you try to reply with a dodgy signal, I kept pressing submit because nothing was happening and ended up replying 4 times

Why did you uplift the ban so quickly? That does seem odd. Bans on media presence does make a point but it must be your only option. I am guessing that's not the case here?
