TOPIC: FAO Jon Colman - Jenkins

Jon, you have to ensure that the Jenkins rant on air makes the front page in Mondays paper.
Big bold letters please so no one misses it.
Maybe this would ensure it can't be swept under the carpet like Pattisons text from Keith.
Our chairman swearing at commentators live on air is simply unacceptable.
Do your bit to make things as uncomfortable as possible for him/them.
They can't continue to get away with things.

Wasn't listening, wot happened like?

Have a read of it on the match thread mate.

Was he being interviewed after the game or something ? Or did he just grab the mic and say that ?
Doesn't really matter which it was it's still absolutely disgusting behaviour from a chairman or anybody live on radio for that matter.

Phillips and Lumsden were summing the game up immediately after the final whistle.
Lumsden stopped speaking mid sentence.
Jenkins, on his way from the directors area to wherever they go, allegedly jabbed Phillips in the arm and appeared to say loudly "get behind the club you c**t, get behind the club.
It was clear enough heard on the radio, and Lumsden seemed to be stopped in his tracks what he was saying.
Phillips then apologised for the four letter word shouted by our chairman.
Lumsden and Phillips quickly changed the subject.
Probably more out of shock than anything else.

It just gets worse

Unbelievable really

It cant get any worse off field we have owners who are stickiing two fingers up to fans and a trust who havent got the pips to stand up for us .

Has anyone thought of bringing in some media training? Maybe 30 years too late.

Has anybody thought about pretending to be mortally offended and reporting him to the pigs?

does anybody have a link to broadcast? ive checked online at BBCRC and they only have the Barrow game on listen again.

Jenkins will be quaking in his boots at the thought of another savaging from the N&S.;

"Oh no, not another open letter!"

I think the AJ incident happened at 16.57 so just before the Radio Cumbria post match which starts at 17.00. So it's not available to hear again online.

No just utter fuckwittery and incompetence. ..no excuse for that.

Thanks musher, I doubt anything will get done about it, what's Phillips even done ?

Yes the am commentary available online just misses it. ( the Altrincham v Barrow game show at 1:55:30) JP apologises for something that you can't hear.

No doubt it'll all stay quiet at the club. If his remark can't be heard or has been edited so that it can't be heard, they'll find nothing to apologise for.

I'm absolutely disgusted by this.

Can i just make it clear that nobody (apart from lummy and phillips) really know what he said.

Over to you, lummy8, did he say what we think he said?
It was obviously bad enough for JP to apologise for it.

In the interests of public decency surely Jenkins could be prosecuted for this outburst. It will have offended many. I do know that the law requires a commentator to apologise when bad language is used.

Pity AL can't put together some serious money and buy the incompetents out.
They will destroy the club if we don't get rid of them.

TheLazyLewisGuy wrote: Your right Lewis.
That's why I said appeared to say.

That's what it sounded like on the radio.
Then Phillips immediately apologised for the four letter word used by the chairman of the club.

Absolute disgrace! Just when you thought he couldn't get any worse...

listen from 41:22 on the 5 pm show and there is a long discussion on it. "Hit" Phillips on the arm and used a 4 letter word. Basically Lummy understands why AJ said it.

Can we not have it played over the tannoy when the team comes out?

What with him and Steve Patt they certainly have a way with words.

We just need John Nixon to tell the new fans rep to f**k off and we'll have a full house!

What is supremely ironic is that on CUFC's facebook page the cover photo states 'We have a zero tolerance stance on foul language'

I imagine AJ has no idea what facebook is but all the same you couldn't make it up!!

He evidently thinks his behaviour was acceptable. Think about that for a minute. Imagine if a fan had jabbed and sworn at him?

Time his family, or someone who cares about him, led him away for a nice long rest.

So AJ and co. spit the dummy when someone brings in a flag protesting against them - no hint of abuse or foul language....then he says what he is alleged to have said......anyone else get the irony - eh Andy?

Maybe Jenkins was actually talking to Nixon..?

'Get behind the club you [censored]'

Nixon did say he was going to take a 'behind the scenes' role at the club, which he obviously hasn't...

Makes Delia's famous rant look a bit tame now by comparison!

Anybody seen the paper this morning? Nothing online just yet, but I gather by the billboards that there's been an apology?

Its on the front page, says how Philips had too apologise twice for the remarks and, surprise surprise, nobody from the club is available for comment.

Dixy wrote:
Ah ok, so the apology was with reference to Philips, rather than Jenkins.

An apology is no good for this type of behaviour it's utter disgusting.

At least it shows us what there really like by ruling with an iron fist.

We are all behind the club we just aren't behind the regime

Mullen's right, a pathetic apology, or an outright denial that it was meant, or directed at Phillips Lummy (or even Colman), is in no way enough this time. Nor are stupid platitudes about the involvement of other people which was what Pattison used with his phone. No this is serious, and is going some way towards showing everyone how these clowns feel about us, about the media and about everybody. These are the people who represent our club to the media, and as a result to the wider football watching public. As if it isn't bad enough the lies they're telling about everything, this happens. Now if it was an ordinary fan who wandered past Jenkins and called him a c**t, that fan would be unceremoniously removed, and possibly face some sort of ban.

So come on Mr Jenkins, give us a full explanation of what you said, and why you think you were entitled to say that, live on air on a sports broadcast for the whole of Cumbria. If you don't do that you'll be shown up for the disgusting cowardly old fart you so obviously are.

Yep, headline is something like 'Spat takes gloss off win' which is pretty accurate really.

I think this incident shows a human side to AJ and for once I am supportive of his actions (albeit a little course and badly timed). This is Cumbria, not some politically correct metropolis !!!
Despite some concerns that AJ as benefactor may have held the Club back overall, his judgement is sound, and he is 100% CUFC....So, look at the reasons behind his comment here...

Stop what you're doing for a second and think about the fact that our Chairman has called the county's football commentator a c*nt live on air.

Let it sink in.

What?!?!

It was AJ who has made the headlines so how come you have a dig at Andy (again) What has Andy done to you for you to look at having digs at him all the time. He cant actually come out and speak up against his employers as that will get him the sack.

Course?

Golf, or what?

I think a major problem now is the stooges now have a real siege mentality, its them against the evil outside world. This makes it even harder for them to see the sdamage they are doing to the club and its supporters, while still believing they are the last line between carlisle going out of business.

With the heat with our local media outlets (either BBCRC/N&S; or both) out in the open, you cant see them getting too much help from the club in future about what is going on.

Its just another sad episode at a time when things are looking up on the pitch and we should be looking forward with optimism, not still being held back by these clowns!

Sadly, Dixy, you've hit the nail on the head with that post. I certainly can't see the local media being given anything at all by the clowns, they clearly think they're in the right and nobody has any right to question anything they choose to do.

I think Oldhamblue is in fact Andy Hall and its the only way he can have a dig at his employers by having a go at himself. He would have got away with it too if it wasnt for us pesky kids.

Could do with BBC or Sky Sports picking up on it to really shan him up! Having said that he probably feels he's completely justified and will have his reasons for it no doubt....

Fact of the matter is though I'm sat at home listening post match with my 6 year old son and he's come out and said arguably the most offensive word he can say. What kind of message does that send! Thankfully I didn't hear it and first realised what had happened when Phillips had apologised.

I'm absolutely stunned that he shows this type of behaviour almost carefree! Pattison telling fans to f*ck off, the whole text message debacle and now this! All clear public displays of petulance. Dixy's spot on it's a real siege mentality now and I reckon it'll only make them harder to remove....

Not that he'll tell us.

AJ was probably a Director of CUFC before most on this forum were born, he is not a bad guy and is 100% CUFC...so my advice is stop the bitterness, it ain't going to help...As for SP, well that is a different story.

I do not for one instant think he's 100% CUFC. If he was then that outburst would never have been heard on live radio. He's 100% AJ, that is why he is clinging on to his power for all he's worth. Do you (or anybody for that matter) think it is at all important how long he has been fleecing the club and milking the population of Cumbria?

I for one, and I'm sure many others will not be taking any advice from you in this matter, unlike your good self, we prefer to make up our own minds on things of importance.
