Yo Hopey kid, I also enjoy some booze when I want to try and forget about the footy lol.
And as for Bambi, he was never the same after he left University Challenge!!.
And speaking of that, how did Vivian survive after having his head chopped off on the train ?!!. 🤕
Bamford has now deleted his Twitter account.
Not surprised after some comments made & this 'doing the rounds" - sad state of affairs all round ER. 🙄

Not surprising at all, there is NO such thing as "social media", especially when it relates to comments from football supporters. I've said harsh things about many players, but nothing that comes close to the disgusting vitriol levelled at player(s) who have made significant contributions to our promotion, and just like the supporters of the club, have been let down by those who should have known what was required to make sure we prospered, not just survived.
As a reminder of what we have had to tolerate in the past, from players who have been raised to footballing sainthood......

A particular comment rings as true now as then, "'The only consolation for United was that they were too bad to be true. There was so much wrong with them that only Cooper got good marks, and Charlton, Hunter and Madeley just scraped a pass. Sprake was right off form" - 19 October 1968 - Burnley 5 Leeds United 1.
My first game, 12 years old, travelled to Turf Moor on my own (Dad was a cricket/rugby man), for some reason it didn't put me off!
God help us had there been Facebook, Tw4tter, Instaf00k or any other "platform" back in the 60's - 70's
On the subject of the "montage", I suspect if you were sad enough and had enough time on your clearly unemployed hands, you could put something similar together featuring Kane, Son, Shearer, Toni, Mane, Vardy etc etc etc, but why would anyone who claims to be a Leeds supporter (if it was such a person) put this together?
ALAW....I don't think I've actually seen any "motto" where the sentiment embodied in the acronym is less appropriate. Individual players have been crucified, insulted, described in the most inhuman and degrading terms whilst (until quite recently) those who bore the true responsibility were able to isolate themselves from criticism (at least from most, I claim an honourable exception, and have been lambasted by many for my pains, again, ALAW?) and "carry on regardless " of the mayhem resulting from the incompetence they exhibited, clearly evidenced for all those willing to see.
We have a proud record of support to the team on match days, the crowds (both home and away) have shown others how to support the players (almost) irrespective of the results on the field. I've been called a "keyboard warrior" as my attendance at games has been limited of late, but never in all my posts have I descended to the levels of sheer evil that I have seen of late from supposed LUFC supporters when commenting not just about Bamford, but Cooper, Ayling, Meslier, amongst others, For shame.
