His defending for a start.. would help if he could learn to not commit a foul every time he goes in our own penalty box Anyway that’s beside the point. If you’re a figure in the public eye providing a service that people pay good money to watch while earning a huge sum yourself, and then you don’t deliver when it comes to that service, people will be angry with you and inevitably there will be the odd one that’s abusive. Thats how social media is.. there’s no point in pretending there’s some alternative universe where everyone is happy to pay to watch garbage and not say anything about it. It’s just how things are so if he doesn’t like it or can’t handle it he should just avoid using it. Or if it gets to him that much use the block function. Anything but whinge because someone said a few words to you.. it’s weak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not mandatory to swear or be vile is it, or did I miss that in the T&Cs Of course it's not mandatory and i'm in no way condoning it but you are always going to get some idiots that take it too far.

IWEDFM Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Everyone has options, you can block or you can make your account private or deactivate your account completly if comments hurt you that much Fans are quick to praise players when they play well so they have to accept critisism after poor performances. It's part and parcel of football 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crookesowl Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 The abuse shown in the OP is bang out of order. He’s @mentioned the player and hurled obscenities at him. It’s a personal attack. Some of our “fans” are absolute idiots. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure that kid doesn’t care that’s he’s been ‘called out’. It makes it look like Odubajo is bothered by what’s said when he needs to block it out.. how can anyone perform in any role if they’re obsessing over others opinions. You just can’t.. successful people ignore it and stick to their own principles and plan to achieve results.

Take Lee Chapman, not our most gifted striker but he ran his nads off and put his head in every game. Earning him a player of the year award one season. Would be thought of more fondly except for a 'George Hirst' type of leaving. He was quite good though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football fans aren’t known for their vocabulary. As I said, successful players focus on what needs to be done. Look at Fletcher.. don’t see him on social media, he’s too busy in the gym and honing his skills as a footballer to waste time interacting with losers online. There’s nothing good that can come of it, he should just block abuse and/or turn off notifications on replies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is wrong but as I keep saying by being in the public eye and having social media you're leaving yourself open to abuse from a minority of idiots He should get over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
