Jake Eastwood's welcome video is on I follow and right at the start Macca shoves his face in the camera and says "James Mckeown Grimsby town and apparently I can't save a shot"
What was that all about? Is he throwing a strop because Eastwood has signed. He threw a strop when Henderson started playing games

i think its a bit of fun Davec, i think even Macca can honestly say he has had an indifferent season and PH is correct in taking him out the firing line. He has had a lot of pressure on his shoulders. Being captain, time at the club etc.

Looked like it was just a bit of fun and banter to me, nothing more.

Humour is his way of keeping sane when he’s frustrated with his performances and the potential of being number 2? All this ‘He threw a strop’ rubbish makes it sound like the bloke was throwing a tantrum. I haven’t seen any footage of him stomping around/ acting up etc. All he did was ask for the chance to move to a different club so he could play football. |

No Aaron. He’s probably seen a few of the personal comments on twitter and FB people do post some nonsense when they’re angry, Maccas been poor, no doubt, but he’s just having a bit of banter

Banter.
The proof will come if he forces himself into first team selection & McKeown's reaction.

I think it’s a little strange. I can’t think of a welcome video of a player where another player has stuck there face into the camera ever happening before. He’s obviously feeling the pressure to have done that......

Macca just asserting his dominance by starting the interview over Eastwood. Letting you know that if you think he's being dropped on Saturday then you're in for a surprise.

Looking forward to Part 2 - Macca explains his knack of saving penalties.
Then Part 3 - Macca demonstrates how to score in a penalty shootout.

Maybe a more professional media department would have edited it so the Captain could still look like a Captain. I don’t think it’s that big a deal in reality but like many of us I do believe Macca hasn’t been pushed and if someone half decent comes in to do that the he may not like it but it’s a good thing. |

He doesn't say "apparently", when I read that I thought it might come across as a dig at the fans but having watched it there's nothing to see really. Not throwing a strop in my opinion. "James McKeown, can't save a shot. Still the quickest goalie at the club. Still got the most personality at the club." is what he says for those that haven't seen it. |

That video is a bit embarrassing really. I just don’t get why Macca felt the need to do that, and neither do I understand why the PR department felt it was needed or relevant.
There’s no comedy or banter to it at all.
This young goalkeeper won’t have had any PR features like that before, so early in his career. I hope it doesn’t cheese him off or put him off wanting to be at Town.
I didn’t see Matt Green being spliced into the start of the Payne or LJL video interviews did you?
No need and totally unprofessional on the part of the PR editor for this one.

Hmm...
I think it's one of those things were if things were going well, we would all laugh and say how good the spirit seems in the dressing room.
But things aren't going well and McKeown is having a stinker of a season. One of those where he probably should have just kept quiet all round, gives his critics more ammunition to fire at him.

But before we go all in on Dale....
What PR training has he had?
When has he ever been given the belief that it's ok to edit out something like that?
When has anyone ever said 'Dale, we trust you to use your initiative on stuff like this'?
It's not shite people. It's a shite system. We've given good people crap resources and crap structures to adhere to. I can pretty much guarantee that any opportunity to act on your own initiative is shot down because there's a culture of micro-management at play and has been for the last 20 or so years.

I didn't get what the joke was, what the point of the start of the video was, or why it was needed at this time. Was it just an editing issue? Not sure why we couldn't just have a video introducing the new signing.

He was having a laugh with whoever was in the room at the time, as awkward as it was. Doubt he thought for a second it would end up in the video. Whoever edited it thought it would be amusing, bit of self deprecating humour, who doesn't like that? Not sure they judged it right. We move on. |

He shouldn't have said it, I totally agree but should it have made the final cut? Sure as hell not. That lies with the editor. In reference to the question what training has he had. If the answer is non he shouldn't be our PR Manager simple. |

It has everything to do with him. He's the club captain and has been first choice keeper nearly since the day he walked through the door. I'm not saying he hasn't been a great servant but this is buck stupid - both by him and whoever put it together. |

As if people are sat fretting about this. Bigger issues surely. He’ll be in the team or he won’t.
I thought the new lad might be here as cover but hearing him say he had 7 clean sheets in 11 games under Hurst might mean otherwise.
Let’s not make a big deal out of absolutely nothing though.

Maybe he’s just having a laugh at training an not expecting it to actually make it out to be viewed by the fans. I’d be surprised if he’s dropped on Saturday tbh. Not saying he wouldn’t deserve it but I think we owe him a little more gratitude. He’s been a great servant for the club an hopefully with the new lad pushing him he will find his top form... if not then the new lad will get his chance an make his claim on the No1 spot.

Honestly I don't think it's got anything to do with gratitude, I mean I'm a big fan of his ability, but he needs dropping, he's totally out of form.
The new guy will have come in to play and given that Hurst gave him so many starts while on loan with him previously I expect and hope he goes straight into the line up.
Places are there to be won and lost. Macca has done enough to lose his at the moment.

Spatted his dummy out when Henderson came here, and he will again when dropped again.
We need a goalkeeper, not a shot stopper.
Pep dropped England's number one, Hurst needs to drop Town's number one.
Tough decision, but needs doing.

I really don’t get some of the comments on this and other threads. We’ve been on a terrible run. Most supporters (including the majority here on The Fishy) have been calling for loads of new signings during the transfer window. After a slow start, Paul Hurst has delivered what is virtually a new team of players who, without exception, have good credentials. And guess what? Fishy posters are arguing that a number of them should simply provide cover for players who have been struggling for weeks. I should have thought that all, or most, would go straight into the starting eleven. We simply haven’t got time to be easing them in over 3 or 4 games via the bench. I’m sure that if any are carrying injuries that preclude them from hitting the ground running, Paul wouldn’t have signed them in the first place.
