Can't you buy a blue tick for a tenner these days?

He may be a moron, for an incredibly rich and powerful person it is worrying that he may be a moron. It's a stupid name indeed and indeed at least one populous country has banned X.COM as it had a history of p0rn.

But however stupid it is, that is its name and I object to the regularly used phrase "X formerly known as Twitter" because it doesn't deserve whatever respect (and that wasn't a lot) that the Twitter platform had. My feed is rubbish now and the only improvement I've noticed is that AH has actually blocked me (waha). Try looking up Joey Barton to see how nasty the site is.

X was chosen because Musk likes the letter. Wonder if he was scared to go with Z. But however stupid he is, twitter.com remains and is interchangeable with x so I guess he has the best of both worlds plus a queue of people buying blue ticks in a vain attempt to fill the financial gap of an increasingly shrinking advertising client base.

But since NCFC use it, and it is about the only way to make public any complaints against large organisations, I'll continue to remain logged in.

xx to you all ;)

Better known and will always be known as ‘ T W A T T E R ‘ to me, never used it can’t see the point of it, just seems as a meeting point for angry people with issues.

Well if you've never used it ???????????

Where it is used well it is a great way for individuals and organisations to have instant communication. Conversely it allows any idiot to have a rant without thinking. But then, so does this site. You could write ' tw@er ' instead.

A post from Mrs Williams:

"If I’d known it was our last game I would of stood outside and hugged you all so tight! My beautiful pie family, thank you for making so many beautiful memories for me and my boys. I will of course sit down when things have calmed down and read all your lovely messages to Luke x"

With reinforcements absolutely needed in January, I can't imagine that they will be the last of the rumours either.

Dan Gosling has now exited so that’s another one we are short in squad depth not that he did much anyway while here

I think that IS the point of it!

Whether there should a website existing for that reason is a different matter!

Ironic really that its new name is the internationally recognised symbol for a kiss! X

Also the internationally recognised symbol for a horror film
