I do think there is a world of difference between expressing an opinion about a player on a forum (within the bounds of humour and decency) and putting stuff out there on social media channels or saying it to his face.

I suspect a lot of people who make such threats would be incapable and too fearful to act on the threat having no keyboard to kind behind but it is a little symptomatic of today’s world that people often speak or type/send without exercising any degree of caution or thought to what they are saying.

They don’t seem to have too many role models in politics either setting the right example and some pundits (Gary Neville comes to mind) who seem to think they have the answer to things they know little or next to nothing about or just otherwise talk testicles.

Question sera sera.
Forums are social media Hope!
One little snipped taken by one individual from ones post can go viral that is how social media works.
That's why I try to have my posts out with some humor in them but meaning what is said. That way I try hard not to effect the person reading to misread what i try to say. Sometimes it comes out wrong but hey I respect everyone's opinions but I do try.
