Chesh Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I see the first video from Ton TV went live today with a video showing the teams first day back at training.

TheGoon Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Good content! Simple stuff but we’ve just not had it before really so nice to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody66 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Good to see and long overdue, but wasn't this meant to be introduced as part of the new website? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRVMP Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 This is good. Need to get the microphones sorted for outdoor recording, but that's a relatively minor thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdinTon Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Would be nice for the club Twitter account to post the video first rather than coming from our new PR person first and then sharing his Tweet. Screams a bit CFB behaviour that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hej Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Anyone got any idea who the trialists mentioned by Millar are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 It is nice to have a presenter that is clearly passionate and knowledgable about his club, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pink_panther Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 But Gerry did mention a Morton goalkeeper so that's him sorted. I was waiting on the song "if you know your history" coming on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Gerry and don’t want to sound ignorant here but what’s the actual deal with him? Where did he come from... what’s his connection to us and what makes him qualified for the role he’s taken on with us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bewilderedbeast Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Given the backdrop on that video in assuming he's local. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presume he's pals with MacKinnon and that if you work for Celtic in any capacity means you can work for Morton in any capacity too, even though the roles don't sound similar at all, judging by his LinkedIn.

Think he's a full time hairdresser and works for the club part time. I don't mind his videos, etc and they are a lot better than what we're used to but PR and generating media aren't really the same thing. The club really need someone with a marketing background to work on a strategy, brand guidelines, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuartTon Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Gerry is a full time hairdresser. He was a partner in Stewart’s in Greenock for years. He’s been involved with various production activities for 10+ years and left his role as a hairdresser to work for Celtic full time, mainly for Celtic TV. He also has authored a few books and regularly MCs local events. He left The full time Celtic Jon and went back to working as a hairdresser while keeping part time activity going. He’s done a few local events “An evening with” type affairs, including with Andy Ritchie. He’s a local guy (Largs I believe) and don’t think he has ever hidden the fact he’s a Celtic fan.

port-ton Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 He's qualified at his job and I enjoy him in the content. Couldn't care less who he supports tbh. TonTv sounds like it's going to be a proper commercial idea for the club, so having someone who can interview, present and commentate at a good level is a bonus. Good people will do good things, bad people will do bad things, but only with religion do good people do bad things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree imo he comes across quite well. Would rather he, or anyone involved with the club, weren't as staunch supporters of the ugly sisters, but hey ho.

I’ve never heard him commentate but I really, really hate his content. The club are obviously trying to project a slicker image, and I dare say that in doing that, this is the sort of guy that you’ll get, someone with a fake tan, veneers and horrendous patter- see Gerry McCulloch at Celtic and David Tanner at Hibs. Give me a Jim Spence before a David Tanner any day of the week though. Small mercies though, if JJ was still here we could’ve had fucking Jean involved.
