Darron Gibson signed up for Twitter yesterday – and then quite within a couple hours after being hit with a raft of abuse. The ill-feeling was predominantly from Manchester United supporters less than impressed with Gibson’s midfield performances, but also from Northern Ireland fans still upset at his decision to represent the Republic of Ireland.
Gibson has since put out word via Rio Ferdinand that he simply “couldn’t be bothered with it”, and via The Times’ Oliver Kay that he was being driven nuts by the volume of incoming messages.
Nonetheless, it seems likely that the amount of vitriol he attracted in such a short space of time was at least partly responsible for @DGibbo28′s very short lifespan
Anyone who got on his back must be some sad little people,I wonder how many of them have done anything with their lives?,Is this the type of people that follow football nowadays? gibson as far as i can see always tries hard even if he is not the most gifted footballer we have ever seen,some people just have no manners.
Could just as easily have been a Liverpool player,Lucas took a lot of stick on many forums,not sure if he got it on his twitter page though,it is just another example of type of fan that is around today,especially on the interweb.
agreed wakka. queers the lot of them. bunch of short sleeve check shirt wearing c*ckbags who appreciate nothing that they have and should be in prison taking it up the arse, that'd put manners on them.
