email from the club

Just rec'd this from the club, I was copied in with 48 different people, I will past my response which I copied in plus and other responses other people copy me into.

Good morning and I hope you are well?

    Like an email from The Riddler
  • Desperation is starting to kick in.
  • response from one of the 48 who replied to everyone in the chain

    I'm just about making the effort myself, I doubt if could find more than
    Five and I think I would have to literally drag them with me at the moment.

    Please feel free to pass on my comments, not that it will change the way the Club is Currently being run and Ripped apart.

    Regards,

    Will (Ex Season Ticket Holder)

    - Oh Dear, if they think I am going to tell my friends about this or even push the hashtag this time they are having a laugh,

    How about #Rolandoutforafiver

    Are they 48 other complete strangers? Surely they shouldn't be cc'ing in such a way that you can see everyone else's address?

    I'd be more worried that they are giving out your email address to 47 other people......
  • I wonder how email's the club send out, then receive a reply telling them to poke it?

    Exactly. Just when you thought they couldn't possibly be any more amateur and inept, they pull another one out of the bag!!

    Serious breach of Data Protection Act. Again...

    If one of those affected were so inclined they could make a complaint.

    Like is this for real?

    I've seen better grammar and sentence structure from the 8 year olds I work with

    "Good morning and I hope you are well?" that wasn't a question.
    Complete amateurs.
  • Every day in every way CAFC sinks a little lower into oblivion.
  • This reads like the club's clunky Facebook ads - wonder if "Katie" writes those too?

    You really do underestimate 16 year olds!!

    Straightforward breach of Data Protection Act. Complain.

    In fairness, I suspect the marketing department are being pounded to get bums on seats and are trying anything. That's their job.

    That said, it's a poor email and openly copying other email addresses must blow a massive hole in the Data Protection Act.

    Why not reply all, so the club and the other 47 receive it, sending details of the next protest and thanking the club for giving you a forum to communicate with other disgruntled fans. That is likely to light a firework or two ...

    It's a good job they don't see me write. Full stop.
