When he was met by our Director of Communications, of course it is nonsense. |  | | |

Yeah, you don't just rock up for a private tour with a videographer and photographer without somebody in the comms team of a multi-million pound, heavily PRd organisation, noticing. |  | | |

I might book another ground tour, looks like you get a lot more access than you used to.... |  | | |

Can only conclude at this point that the club are absolutely fine with this and there will be no statement or explanation. | | | |

He recorded himself on the private tour?
Quite clearly no official involvement. If there was, you would have seen Mark Ashton and McKenna on either side of him and probably some of the players.
All he has said really is than you for a private tour they have paid for? | | | |

i've heard that there are little devices that you can slip into a pocket that do video and photos? people even use them to put stuff online. a bit like making a film. or is that just a myth? |  |

How can it possibly continue to get worse? Amateur hour from the club, and i'm even more frustrated about it now than earlier. |  |

No. but as someone who works in media and regularly employs people to make promotional videos for my charity, this was not made on "a little device", and even if it was done with small equipment there is no way this content was shot on a private tour without the club realising what was going on, no way at all. | | | |

Phil, i think you've been fobbed off by the club if they seriously think they can peddle out the 'This was just a private tour' nonsense.
Can you not use your journalistic qualites and contacts to actually find out what has gone on here, because rightly so, decent supporters with morals are not being miugged off with this line.
I guess the answer is no because you have a reputation to uphold with the club. A shame. [Post edited 24 Mar 12:31]

As mentioned on the other thread, Farage comes with significant security.
There are discussions in the days/weeks before that he is coming with any institution he is visiting.
So yes, the club did know. | | | |

Yeah not going to slide considering they’ve managed to get all our major honours on display in the dressing room.
You’d imagine a few of the players whose names also show up on the honours board aren’t going to be best pleased about becoming political promotion.
Nor the sponsors on the press board backing.
What a cockup this all is. | | | |

You were always going to find some who wish to play the contrarian about this. Very predictable.
As per the OP, the club cannot continue to just sit on their misleading initial statement. |  |

i'd put money on it being filmed on a phone and then being well edited. i'm sure they did it openly. the club should have an explicit non-commercial etc use of stuff filmed on the tour, which applies to everyone, but if they don't then there's little the tour guide can do once it's started. | |

There is zero chance that was recorded on a phone, it's professionally done with a videographer. You don't get that scope of shot on a phone. | |

What annoys a lot of people is being gaslit. The "no official involvement" is laughable when we know he met the comms director and there are a load of shirts with Farage on the back. Am guessing it wasn't the shirt fairies that printed them.
You and I don't get that kind of access when we book a tour, so the club line is at best dinengenous, at worst clearly dishonest.
Trust between club and fans matters and it has taken a bashing over this, no question. Whoever signed it off made an error of judgement and by not publicly distancing themselves from Reform's tweets is endorsing them imho.
The longer the silence from the club, the more the damage is done to our image and it's relationship with a lot of fans. |  |

So yes, the club did know. |
Yes, the club did most likely know and I’m not disputing that.
What I am disputing is that the club has invited him on this tour and associating the brand of ITFC and Reform in a collaborative way for mutual benefit.
In sure if Zach Polanski and the Green Party came along and booked a private tour and made similar posts and videos, we would probably come to that reasonable conclusion | | | |

I love the club, it's important to me. But so is following the right values and standing up for those marginalised. Right now, I don't feel I will go again unless this complete horror show is addressed and the club makes amends | | | |
