Collective statement issued with Burton Albion FC and the EFL following malicious and offensive social media post.
Ditto!I’m in the clear I dont do Twitter.
Michelle, neither do I. I have enough problems being on here.I’m in the clear I dont do Twitter.
Agree Mac makes you wonder what his parents are like. (If he has any that is)The really worrying thing is that the kid on that tweet looks about 10.
I’ve had people on here wishing me deadSteve Bruce only this morning has said he’s had several messages from people on social media saying they all wished he just dies.
twitter not a kid but he clearly has anger issuesThe really worrying thing is that the kid on that tweet looks about 10.
a quick check of his twitter account, it isn't a kid. His twitter page is full of him abusing anyone and everyone who has a different opinion to him.The problem with social media is that it documents raw thoughts that in the cold light of day nobody ever means
Who has heard someone say ' I'll effing kill you ' ' I hope you die ' in the spur of the moment ? Most I suspect
Do they mean it literally ? Of course not and everyone forgets about it almost immediately
The tweet is vile but it's a silly kid venting his spleen Most of us have done that at some point
Ban him from Twitter / ban him from BFC if necessary but I am not sure this needs to be criminalised
Pity there's no racism, sexism or any other ism for you to jump all overWell that certainly comes under the category of abuse
That tweet sounds like a 62 post after we lose a game and someone disagrees with his opinion
We have our fair share of moronsI’ve had people on here wishing me dead
Indeed, it is vile and he clearly has history for it. Dealing with it by taking criminal action surely isn't the best option though. Not that I know how it is possible to educate someone who clearly has anger issues.Noted Bispham - I took it from the earlier posts he was
Still not sure this should be criminalised but that doesn't take away from the fact that the content is vile and social media at it's worst
What a silly child you arePity there's no racism, sexism or any other ism for you to jump all over
Is that the best you can do.What a silly child you are
Spot on, social media is a scourge on society, and must be policed diligently.The problem with social media is that it documents raw thoughts that in the cold light of day nobody ever means

Yep, but anything is deemed to be racist these days if you upset somebody. I'd like to see what was said before I make any judgement.What exactly was said I thought it was just the general exchange of rival fans each blaming each other’s club for the postponement
Does that mean we should ban everybody who says nasty things about Bolton? and I've seen some very nasty comments regarding that club over time.Ban him for life
a quick check of his twitter account, it isn't a kid. His twitter page is full of him abusing anyone and everyone who has a different opinion to him.
NoTo be honest the baying mob on here isn't significantly dissimilar to the abuse he has posted
What have we had ? Calls for him to be locked up and to throw away the key Utter nonsense
What might be better would be for the club to ban him ( to start when we return ) but suspend that if he does some volunteering work in the BFCCT and / or become involved in anti-abuse initiatives
Make an example of him but also hopefully educate the lad that posting bile on twitter ain't clever
There should be action taken, not just for this one tweet, which is bad enough in itself, but it follows a pattern where he keeps doing it over and over. I certainly don't think it warrants any criminal action but people who behave this way clearly believe it is acceptable, mostly because the social media companies don't take action. So they are left to carry on doing it. The guy needs help, even if it is so called "tough love".No
Wishing death on the entire Burton team, as well as his other vile posts wishing death on many others.
The guy is a fruit loop, he should be banned and sectioned.
nonsenseTo write that you have to think it. What must he think if something serious happens. The pictures not that clear but it doesn’t look like a kid to me. If you have anger management issues you should stay away from social media
