The new head of comms, due to start at the beginning of February, is from a marketing background, it seems. She doesn't have football or substantial related editorial experience, as far as I understand from multiple sources.
Let's not make an issue out of her being a woman, though. We've had some excellent women press officers at Charlton and I'm sure one of them would have made a good head of comms (and might take offence if I imply otherwise).
I hope she has the ability to refrain from answering emails and to treat all customers with equal disdain. And also to be able to say "I'm sorry, Katrien has had to go out on urgent business so your meeting is cancelled ... she'll get back to you" in eight languages.
I wonder what she is thinking now. We were told at Meire’s PowerPoint meeting that she would start in Feb. Since then including the Power Point itself, there have been all number of PR gaffs, Dublin being a classic, culminating in a car park full of protesters and Minty’s effort in the Standard. She must have followed events, would she have handled things differently. Is she still looking forward to starting?

"They've set the bar really f*cking low there..... result."

Or did she start early, and make contributions while not yet officially in post?

If she's started already then she isn't doing too well; unless you mean by this weeks releases?

Understand they've got an interim from the PL advising them.

Wait.. seriously, or jokingly?
Am I right in saying that at the moment we have:
- an "Interim Head Coach" - an "Interim Head Scout" - an "Interim Head of Communications"

Thought it was interesting that it the JD seems slanted towards PR and no mention of journalism
Although I'd guess that they'll try and appoint to both roles from the one round of interviews.

will we ever learn?
