Directors box

[jordan210]

Spotted this on twitter last night. Reporter from Derby trying to stir shite.
Obviously it’s got Rotherham and Wednesday fans all worked up.




To me looks like angle of photo as look how Boddy is leaning at the front.

also clearly only 3 people in the back row and space On each row

Stirring up.a load of rubbish.
That picture suggests that the directors box is 3 rows high!
Pure angle of picture makes it look crowded when realistically there will he at least a row free between each.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Conway mentioned it 4 or 5 times throughout the match. Weirdo.

 

[chiefdave]

Its obviously the angle of the photo that makes them look closer together than they actually are. But even with that why sit them all in the directors box when the whole stand is empty?

 

[Mcbean]

It’s not the directors box for nothing

6 rows by the looks of things. They're using alternate rows and leaving spare seats in the same row.

Anyone would think the Derby reporter is trying to deflect from their team's performance...

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

He should be worrying more about what’s on the pitch, a no mark trying to make a name for himself.

What could the Rotherham Covid united fans be saying? We had Covid carried on playing missing players they have it cancel the games.

There's some proper professional melts on twitter,they live for outrage and hysteria.

 

[Bad Boy]

Can we talk about why a photographer was wandering around St Andrews randomly taking pictures!

 

[Nick]

Whats the problem? I dont get it.

It wasn't a photographer it's Tim Fisher taking photos for his album.

What about now Nick?

 

[Esoterica]

Whats the problem? I dont get it.

People that glanced at it for less than a second are feeling outraged that we had 15 directors sat in a 3 row by 5 seats directors box. When clearly anyone with half a brain cell that looks at it properly can see that they are spread over multiple rows with at least 1 chair gap between them.

Correct.
There's another picture from another angle I've seen but can't find it again now.

Cunts need shooting.

 

[Otis]

Whats the problem? I dont get it.

The cheering of the directors in the directors box gave us an unfair advantage.

Crowd noise.

"Don't do your ACL in, we want to sell you in the summer" that kind of thing.

 

[mark82]

Don't get the issue. Looks like they're all distanced. Yes, they probably could've spread more but no-one is breaking any rules.

 

[lordy_87]

What a bell end sour grapes

 

[ccfctommy]

Who are all these people? Since when did we have twenty odd directors?

 

[bawtryneal]

It must be really annoying for them all having to peak around that great big tesco sign.
They must miss all the action in the middle third of the pitch.

 

[Happy_Martian]

The Club have already responded to him....

 

[pusbccfc]

He writes for The Athletic. What do you expect?

 

[Frostie]

So salty

Non execs who have paid a contribution eg, Rich Overson, Juggy Chima, Joe Elliott etc also think some people like Mark and Pete from here go, but apologies if I have that wrong guys.

Not guilty. Did have chance earlier in the year but I couldn't make it.

 

[mark82]

There are strict restrictions on the number of people who can attend in the official club party.

Rotherham fans shouting the loudest on Twitter.

Ironic with the amount of games they've postponed.

 

[Skybluebeliever]

This group includes scouts from other clubs and derby representatives , they are normally sat on the other side with a lot more room , because of SA having that stand closed have to use a smaller area in this stand
Surely this reporter travelling a fair distance to work is a similar issue , couldn’t he of stayed and worked from home and watched the game on I follow , Clive and oggy can’t travel to away games because of the distance

That’s a really good point about unnecessary travelling I hadn’t considered that.

Even if they didn't socially distance, what difference does that make to Rotherham fans? I don't get it.

From Gov.uk :

"You must not leave your home unless you have a reasonable excuse (for example, for work or education purposes).

If you need to travel you should stay local. This means you should avoid travelling outside of your village, town or the part of a city where you live. You should reduce the number of journeys you make overall."

Firstly, travel between Tier 4 lockdown areas is still prohibited across England. There are exceptions eg. going for medical treatment. He's working so technically can travel. But as the Govt said everyone should work from home where they can (and as he would also have IFollow and works for an online "news" site, he can work anywhere), he could be brought to task over that.

I think just saying that you're a journalist implies that you can bypass a lot of laws, rules and loopholes "in the public interest" and any recriminations wash off you.

Really not a problem. I personally know several people at Cov RFC who would not really be considered 'essential' to the running of matchday, but who are permitted to travel to matches (two are photographers for the club, one a bbc commentator, one a 'fifth official/sub linesman').
As long as you have the requisite paperwork on your person while travelling direct to and from the game, it's totally legal.
This shitstirrer will have been given that paperwork.

Basically they were bitching on Twitter, get the EFL involved etc, yet they're the ones having games postponed all the time.
