    Oh fuck off with that.

    If thousands of people told you you were shit at being a footballer in a space of two hours since opening a twitter account, I'd be really hurt as well.

    This isn't some "can't take harsh words from troll on internet", this is abuse akin to being booed off the pitch by your own supporters.

    It is a bit pathetic to be honest. If you're booed off the pitch by your own supporters, you don't retire.

    As i said, if a bunch of lowlifes on the internet are going to get to him, then why did he even bother joining twitter? He didn't have to, and he should've known what he was getting himself into. You can't really compare this to being booed off a football pitch.

    Why not? It's the exact same thing if not worse. Words are much harsher than a simple boo.

    If the OP is to be believed, it seems as if he got nothing but abuse from his twitter account. I agree it is soft on his part for closing the twitter accounts (I would've tweeted " @all haters; I play for United and you don't, so fuck off " or something Laughing) but I don't blame him at all.

    Like I said, it's not just a couple tweets, it seems like thousands of harsh abusive tweets.

    Words on their own shouldn't hurt anyone, but it's a completely difference case when it's the voice of thousands upon thousands.

    Harsh as it sounds, I agree with this.

    It's not nice to read abuse, but he's in a profession where he'll get abuse like this often. You'd think he'd have a tougher skin by now. Besides, does he not have the power of hindsight? These people might be telling him he's shit but he's the one who plays for Man Utd, not them.

    I don't blame him either, i just don't really feel sorry for him. From what i read in the OP, thats the standard abuse any footballer recives from twats on twitter, big deal. Neutral

    Besides, they're the ones calling him shit, he's the one playing for Man United. I'm sure they all dream of being in his posistion.

    Fucking hell man, how did you cope? No warning whatsoever? I hope you're OK.

    Devastated. Sent a letter of complaint to the bbc, and am currently awaiting a reply. Disgraceful behaviour, don't you think? I'm still shaking and having horrible flashbacks of scrolling up and seeing the S*n in all it's red glory. But it's nice to have a sympathetic friend like you, really helping me pull through this.

    You wouldn't get cunts abusing a Forest player on Twitter. Our fans back our players and wish them luck, not lower there confidence.

    But Forest fans are true supporters.

    Those United 'fans' aren't really supporters.

    It's alright to have a go about a player when you're talking about performance, but when you start taking the piss out of them when directing it at them, that's too far. Neutral

    Especially when they play for your club, it's a joke.

    To the people criticising Gibson.

    Tell me your school/place of work and I'll come with a group of lads and we'll give you constant abuse all day, let's see how you feel.


    Also, why are people slating him for getting rid of his twitter. Why should he put up with a load of abuse?

    Eboue was literally booed off the pitch at the Emirates last season or so when he was being subbed, what did he go onto to do? Prove himself again that he's a decent player and a year on the fans now sing his name during games. At least until the Liverpool game Darren Gibson's Twitter problem - Page 2 279869

    What I'm saying is, he should use this as a step ladder to proving everyone he's not a shit player. He should man up and not deleted his account. If he gets abuse from his own fans already why go create a twitter account when you know your ass is gonna get some serious stick? Not a wise decision on his part tbh.

    You won't see Almunia, Carrick, Woy make a twitter account (when he was in charge of liverpool)
