He should ignore them all and just concentrate on his day job.
It's meant to be an info servive not a rant line. Ring BBC SCR with that shite, they're used to it.

I know Charlie Oatway isn't the most intellectual guy in the world but this is extremely harsh I feel:

I sort of agree. But when you establish an excellent -- and unprecendented -- service of the kind he has, you are obliged to carry it through.
Any decision to stop answering fans' questions (even the sort that would not have been answered by any normal club press officer) would be a disastrous PR move.

How was that harsh, I meant it sincerely, I hope he is fit soon and challenging for a place in the team.
Maybe the choice of the words "missing link" was unfortunate, but I really think that he is what is missing from the midfield, the sooner he is back the better as we never looked the same after he was injured.

I asked Insider what was going on when I bumped into him at the game...he didn't really have much to say on the matter

I spoke at length to him on the phone last night and he is as concerned as the rest of us. paul is a fan through and through, who is good at his job as the press officer.
I know people do not like to hear this, but I am getting seriously concerned that El Knightio has made a fau pas in getting rid of McGhee when he did. He has left DW to pick up the pieces without the luxury of being able to sign enyone until the Transfer window break. People were moaning last week about Williams, but yesterday I thought he ended up running round like a headless chicken. Our distribution from midfield was pathetic ( hammond and carpenter were woeful) and what is DW doing with the defence......Why keep chopping and changing....what exactly did Rents do so badly that he deserved to be dropped?
paul will answer the points made, but calling for DK's head is not something he can answer is it?

I agree with LI, I always saw the 'Insider' function on here as a genuine way of getting sensible answer about the running of the club, and policy - and bringing to the attention of the powers that be particular issues that might be done better.
You are never going to get sensitive financial information, or early warning of transfer targets. The club site is the place for that. Neither will you get dissent with DK, obviously. He's the guy's employer. We can do that elsewhere for ourselves.
It's not a rant line, and I think Paul would be well within his rights to can it if that's what it becomes. It was a good initiative, yes of course sometimes he can't go as far as people would like in his answers. But if it's abused, I'm sure it will disappear.
