I think it's fake! And used to fire up the opposition at a time they are really feeling low perhaps Ismael Vallarian has run out of ideas on the grass.

That’s them motivated ffs

I know some have said it makes no difference, but I have heard documented, where managers and players have said stuff like this HAS motivated them in the past.

It certainly would me. If someone said I was crap, I would be determined to prove them wrong. In the words of David Bowie "Just for one day."

Obviously there has been many worse instances and stuff that's ended up being posted on dressing room walls.

But still, it's sloppy at best and why ever give the opposition any reason at all to get fired up. Probably won't work at all, but never give them a reason to be.

Their own fans have been telling them they're crap for months and that hasn't motivated them to prove a point yet

No, I agree, but coming out like this and in a public domain, is a little different I think. This has obviously hit the news

Anyway, we will see. Let's see if there is any reaction on Saturday

Sending off incoming,mature heads needed!

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Rubbish - I bet managers up and down the country say similar week in week out

Fuck knows what Maidstone and WBA technical staff were saying about us if they come to our game against PNE

Probably saying what we were all saying, " shit on the day"

 

[Skyblue_LDN]

If real, whilst a tad careless, they just need to own it and hope we turn up on Saturday night. No point waffling about privacy if you’ve been careless and unprofessional whilst in a professional setting. It’s not like someone’s hacked his private emails or anything.

It's a breach of confidentiality and potentially harassment laws.

There’s no expectation of privacy in public

Watford Managers Aren’t Forever

 

[Happy_Martian]

Can't believe that Austin would be that unprofessional, he'd leave his phone open and his messages in a font large enough to be read a couple of rows back. Especially if he's there on scouting business, he'd keep his observations limited to those who need to see them.

Someone on Twitter said that they saw Robins on the Sky broadcast. Don't know if this is true but if so, why did Austin need to message Robins about the game when he'd be next to him in the stand ?

I have WhatsApp and there are some serious irregularities about how that screen compares to mine.

And if it's in an area for Scouts (the floor looks wood and carpet, more Pub Landlord than Football Aficionado), how is a Watford fan in there ?

And for those interested parties, why was Austin messaging an American sports agent as well as Robins about Watford ?

So many authenticity questions about the pics, I can only presume they're faked. And with the expected Internet uproar, Austin is looking at defamation action as the entire situation puts his position in jeopardy with DK.

And this after the Milan "Salute" pic at Millwall, can't help but think some fans and parts of the media enjoying creating drama about us.

 

[covcity4life]

If I'm honest i just don't like the thought of robins writing off a professional footballer as horrific. Feel like he's so smart he never takes a single thing for granted when assessing risks. Also don't want him to be mean like our fans are to players lol

Hope it's fake but also not super serious granted

I think he got muddled.

That one was supposed to be in reply to a message from his missus, "win tonight and a BJ awaits"

I am sure they do but not in public view

 

[steve101]

Jesus christ, give it a rest. It's a private message between colleagues.

Then it should be done in private

 

[Tommo1993]

Feels too unprofessional to be real. Regardless of whether it is or not, it sort of feels like we’ve had our pants down.

Austin needs to wise up with his phone, who leaves that information open for people to see? The person who took the pic needs two footing, the fucking creep.

It was done in private.

Not really.

That’s the law.

You’re filmed by hundreds of CCTV cameras in a stadium. Do you think you have the right to sue the club because of that?

It was done in public where other people can see it

What's CCTV for the purpose of crime prevention got to do with reading somebody's private messages over their shoulder?

The same laws that allow CCTV also allow TV cameras, Polaroids, and mobile phones.

Do you think the privacy of the Wednesday fan doing monkey gestures was violated?

 

[Tommo1993]

Or you’d just hold the phone closer to yourself, in a less revealing position. Like every other normal, sensible person.

Agreed. That is what Austin should’ve done. Make his own privacy

He didn't, the person who posted them online did.
