ChinaOwl Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Perhaps Odubajo thinks there should be a penalty for abusing people on Twitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just detrimental, however if your a pro footballer in the modern era social media should be an absolute no go made mandatory by your employer. It’s an absolute cesspit of humanity at times and the negatives seem to far outweigh the positives. What would you say if your employer told you not to use it? If I was a player, I would keep away from public debate on social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 (edited) In no way by starting this thread was i condoning the comments from the lad. His point was ridiculous, of course Odubajo can support his old club and wish them well. And anyone who sends verbal abuse to someone else online needs to have a look at themselves. It’s out of order. BUT what I was trying to point out is that I think Odubajo commenting on the negativity of the fanbase and how it has affected their performance indicates a very weak mentality within the squad. Don’t point the finger at the fans. There’s only one part of the club who can change fortunes on the pitch and it sure as hell isn’t the fanbase.

SiJ Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Dont think *Jord* is the brightest man that ever lived. Still - of all the things to get riled about? The funny thing is, I'm pretty sure Brentford wanted to hang onto Moses but the option of working with Brucie swayed him. Unfortunately, we haven't seen the same player from a few years back.

I just can’t see how the benefits (for which there are some) outweigh the numerous negatives. I get you are then caving into the idiots but that unfortunately is the world of a person in the public eye nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Anyway, Jord has now turned his ire onto the story re: Lee potentially staying. He's bloody done with the club too. What a loss that will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Saying a player isn’t playing well is one thing but personal abuse is bang out of order. No need for it in any walk of life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, fully agree. As far as I know employers don't have the right to tell you not to use it, even if it's good advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the vast majority turn up and support the team, so his comments about fan negativity affecting the unit still doesn’t wash with me. If he thinks a small minority of fans on Twitter is representative of the whole fanbase he’s wrong. You get those types at every club particularly when a team is struggling. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know if he thinks that, he was reacting to one fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
