Criticism isn't wanted at the club. They cannot handle it. Dummies being spat out all over the place.

Okay that I don't agree with. Pretty poor from the club to censor the fans like that. It's not good that they only allow comments when things are going well.

Very Orwellian of them....

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

The problem seems to be too many entitled people. Just find another hobby other than stalking some guy on twitter.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

The problem with all this is that today's society think they are entitled to say and do whatever they like, however abusive that may be. You think the team, BH, CD and the board are shit, fine. Post on here or speak to your mates down the pub, why do you have to attack people on social media or post criticism on youtube videos? I have plenty of opinions on lots of things but keep them largely off social media.

So you don't know what's happened then.
No one stalked him, he went searching for fans who've criticised performances and blocked them. Many didn't follow him or even know he was on twitter. He can of course block who he likes but you've got it all wrong here.

You've commented without knowing the facts, see my post above. I wondered how long it would take to be twisted in such a way that it would turn on the fans who didn't even know BH was on twitter.

If that's true then that is different to simply blocking people who abused him and does seem odd behaviour I agree.

Yeah it seems he went seeking criticism on twitter from fans who were unhappy after the Stockport game and blocked them. Very odd and a sure sign he's cracking under the pressure.

Personally I couldn't care what he does on his own twitter account but doing what he's done is such an own goal and just creates further divide between club and fans.

Then the pressure is telling on him, Phil. I don't understand the attraction of twitter and ths like or getting upset at being blocked. That's his choice.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Social media, hopefully, is a trend. Rather like Tattoo’s and walking everywhere with head phones on (at risk of killing yourself). I pulled out of it all 3 years ago, and don’t miss it one bit. To me, it’s just a facility to post opinions and therefore clash with those who don’t agree with you. It’s just grief, we all do without.
Hughes is on it because it’s trendy, but now he’s having a hard time at work, he’s not rating it anymore. I think he is mad to be on Twitter, but it’s up to him to block folks, or ideally, grow up and kick it all into touch. Donald Trump seems to put all of his thoughts onto Twitter - one massive reason not to get involved!

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Got a agree that's very poor of the club to disable comments on the videos

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Comments have been disabled on YouTube videos for the time being. It's nothing to do with censorship, it's due to the time moderating is taking on other club channels.

On facebook, we have a young demographic, and I have had messages from parents asking why a 60+ year old man is swinging his todger around using disgusting language on the comments section. Banter maybe - but it has a knock on effect...

I am but one man with some helpers, and I have to moderate this stuff. Some of the vile comments posted the past week are quite frankly shameful and disgusting.

I haven't got all day to sit on all of the club channels deleting old naked men and foul and abusive/threatening text - so something had to give, and for the moment it's YouTube comments.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Getting butthurt over being blocked on twitter and disabled comments on YouTube is a bit much isn’t it?

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

I got blocked by Hughes after stating ‘Hughes out’ and that we were in real trouble if the management team isn’t evaluated ASAP. There was t a single abusive comment and I didn’t tag him on twitter.

I travel hundreds of miles to watch Wrexham play parting with hard earned cash, am I not entitled to air my views about how the team is ran especially as we are shipping goals left right and centre ? What I find strange is he has gone out of his way to find comments about him. Clearly a man under pressure

I am sure the real dummy spitters will appreciate your transparency and apologise.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

I’m honestly not expecting an apology - I just want to be totally upfront with supporters wishing to comment.

As soon as I catch up I’ll enable the comments sections on YT :)

I am also aware of the attempted hack of the backend of our club website, using overseas software and our server providers are working to fix it.

The hack attempts have been unsuccessful apart from the google interference.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Jeez, hacks on the website, accessible toilets damaged, flares and smoke bombs being let off in the ground, female stewards being abused on away travel, DSA stewards being abused....

Things are not great around the club right now. Sad times.

I’d leave comments off anyway, not sure what purpose they even serve.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Hughes is like Boris Johnson a dead man walking gone in 6 weeks or less

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

The flack that Hughes is getting should be directed further up the chain. Hughes is a new manager learning the ropes without the proper support setup. It like throwing a toddler into the deep end and then blaming the toddler for not being able to swim.
The job shouldn’t have been given to Hughes in the first place as the setup at Wrexham is not in place. If they were adamant in bringing in Hughes they should have got an experienced number 2 to work FULL TIME alongside him. The whole thing is a complete mess. So we either muddle along hoping Hughes can pull it round or burn more of our cash in paying him off and replacing him. I see no point in the latter unless we start getting the structure right.
If it was me I’d move Flynn to Director of football, bin off Carl Darlington and bring an experienced No2 full time.

Personally not bothered either way really however it does give the impression the club cannot take criticism. So just leave people comment, from what I've noticed there's barely any anyway.
After what the media team has posted on here I assume all the vile comments etcs have been reported and if necessary to the police?

No problem mate. All in all it's a sorry state of affairs that needs to be sorted one way or another. I do feel sorry for BH and in a fair world he would get until Christmas from me but it's all turning a bit toxic and we cant afford it to get worse.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Personally never noticed any out of order comments on YouTube channel and I’m not on twitter so luckily not seen this video people have spoke about. It does have a hint of batten down the hatches from the club.

Re: Bryan Hughes has started blocking fans on Twitter
 

Perhaps you haven’t seen the comments because by the sounds of it Carl has to keep removing them of the various platforms? I do t think the club expect just praise....seems to be plenty of comments left up of Wrexham fans expressing there disappointment or reasonable responses be it Hughes out or whatever. I think the media team seem to be referring to posts that cross the line?

Yozzer knew the hours Darlington worked. It's stayed the same with Keates, Davies, Ricketts and Barrow

He then went and chose an assistant manager that could not commit to full time

He gets no sympathy from me

Depends if any of it was actually his choice and whether he was clear what the arrangements would be at the outset or whether the goalposts have shifted.

In any event I've reached the realisation that something has to give with the current set up, whether that's 1, 2 or all 3 of BH, BF and CD departing

Whilst I'm not looking for conspiracies, was Flynn his choice?

It's a lovely nostalgic piece of PR.

The club does have form with this.

Darlington is on a good screw here, there's more pressure to keep him employed by the board, I assume due to potential pay off.

I agree it was a lovely bit of PR. What does Flynn do exactly because never hear a peep from him. Where is he while Hughes is taking all this flak? A good assistant should be giving interviews and standing in Hughes corner defending the fella instead I sometimes forget he's even employed by the club.
