Steve Jones no longer at the club.

Sorry for the bloke, but never heard a word he said.

Same here , he did a job , he wasn't going to win any prizes for it - he's a long standing volunteer , which is great of him , but at times it really wasn't great...I"m sure we can do better ( in which case, that's exactly what we should do )

Never nice for somebody to lose their position but this is one that's been coming. Every week there was some sort of mishap. 'Number 8 Yuke Lung' will live long in the memory though.

Is Steve the son of the former announcer from Hope who always used to say "smile, you're on candid camera" before every home game?

Emotion and loyalty aside, this will improve the matchday experience and I share what other people have said about understanding him.

[rob_the_red]

he tweeted he is no longer involved with the club - I do wonder if this is a planned action to get a wave of sympathy - why not just go without publicly proclaiming that you're 'devastated'

Some of the responses along the lines of ' the club's getting worse not better' seem to forget how far we've come in the last couple of years

At the last home match whilst Gillingham were attacking he announced some chaps Wedding Anniversary because he had forgotten to do it at half time.I thought at the time it was poor and a bit amateurish.

That comment made me laugh out loud - cheers

He was poor, hopeless to be honest.

His major fault was he just did not know when to make his announcement, generally it was when we were defending.

I recall that incident a month back also, when the mic was left open !!
