    Eddie and Social Media

    So there was a report released today about the abuse Managers and players face via social media

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football...s/c4g98zkx518o

    What I'm gobsmaked to read though is Eddie, is in the top 3 for abuse.

    It is him, Slot and Amorim (who gets the most).

    I'm honestly astounded by that, I know that when we lose some of our fan base zoom stratospheric on their feelings but for him to be in top 3. . . gobsmaked I really.

    It doesn't specify who, so it could be opposition fans but still. . . Eddie has always come across as a nice, genuine guy, even when he was cherries manager and against us.

    It's mind-boggling.

    Some of our fans are reactionary knobs who say things for clicks.

    I'd wager a lot of these are also mackem burner accounts trying to stir up trouble.

    Thing is, if Eddie was actually ****, they wouldn't bother.

    Im sure, like me, you all get hugely p*ssed off when we lose or under perform. These ars*holes do too but theyre the type that need to blame someone and a target to vent their frustration.
    Anyone doing this to Eddie after what hes done at the club, quite simply, does not understand football. This being the case they should be ignored (which, Im certain, Eddie does).

    First of all I don't believe that most of these people are NUFC fans. I just don't buy it. The Mackems have form for the social media abuse of NUFC. The cartel's fans and the Anti-Saudi mob will also have set up fake NUFC accounts. No doubt there will be some serious players with bot control involved in the abuse.

    There is a small percentage of Bed Wetters among our fan base that will never be satisfied. I stumbled on a podcast by a group of NUFC fans, the host's a black lad. He appears of NUFC TALK TV, dunno his name but the man is 100% pure anti-Howe.

    I listened for about 90 seconds and his points were clown world.

    Struck me as one of those people who read the HR handbook and has perfected doing nothing at work by sending emails deflecting responsibility or accountability for anything.

    A woman. A person who makes excuses. A coward.

    Makes me laugh when this kind of 'man', I use that word in the loosest sense, sat on his sofa, covered in dinner spillages believes he has the stones to question any successful professional.

    The perfect example of this is the typical obsess MMA / UFC keyboard warrior fan blogging about how they'd have head kicked the world champion to win by KO when the fat pr!ck can't even pull up his own trousers.

    HAHAHA

    Wow that one got a bit aggressive didn't it, haha.

    Guess I need to cool it on the coffee this morning!

    Have a great day you crazy kids!
