I hate when footballers (or slebs in general) give it "I'll give out a RT to my thousandth/millionth/adjust-according-to-Big-Club-status follower" - throwing the plebs a wee bone.

idg asking for RTs either tbh, unless you're trying to punt something or publicise a cause.

Kyle Bartley manages to upset both sides of the sectarian divide in two tweets, since deleted:

[“@kylebartley22: Tweeps let me hear some ideas for lent!!”

AMONGST OTHER RESPONSES WAS

@purplemadboy:@kylebartley22 Tweeps let me hear some ideas for lent!!”

m8 lent is for Catholics .. We don't do that !

TO WHICH HE RESPONDED

He does seem like a particularly unpleasant young man

I think he'll be part of Arsenal's huge wage bill this week, now that Rangers have destroyed their historic 100 year friendship with the Gunners.

I saw Bartley tweet that question earlier and thought 'uh-oh, nothing good can come of this'.

However, Pulis is at a loss to understand why Pennant and others would want to use Twitter in the first place.

"The way I've been brought up, I've enough friends and family that I can pick up the phone and talk to them," he added.

"I find it amazing the way these social networks run and people do what they do on them. They're talking to a bunch of Herberts they don't even know, and they are opening themselves up to these Herberts. For me, it is beyond my common sense to do that.

"You have to move with the times, and they [today's players] live in an era where talking via computers is the norm, or becoming the norm. It's very sad in lots of respects.

"But I understand it. I've had to change my ways enormously over my management career to adapt to what people get up to today. But it's still beyond belief that you go on a computer page, or whatever it is, and tell people you are having a cup of tea or coffee somewhere."

Kyle Bartley.

ailsa, Friday, 20 April 2012 20:34 (fourteen years ago)

surely redeemed by that tweet about the lights going out while he was pooping.

although looking at his twitter now, what did he say? from a quick scan through it seems that the incriminatory tweet has been deleted.

michael nyman cat (Merdeyeux), Friday, 20 April 2012 21:50 (fourteen years ago)

He said that some girls were very stupid and that he'd lost a good friend and a great person. Later claimed it was nothing to do with his friend and former teammates Ched Evans. He didn't even know the verdict as he was on the team bus, tweeting his thoughts on, er, twitter. Where he follows lots of outlets reporting it and people discussing it. So adamant was he that his tweet was unconnected with Evans that he has since deleted it and has ignored many requests for him to tweet regarding his thoughts on Evans unrelated to his other friend dicked around by a woman.

Dude's got previous for being a dick on twitter.

Just speculating, you understand. In a needs-some-PR-advice way.

ailsa, Friday, 20 April 2012 22:17 (fourteen years ago)

ugh, fuck 'im, and may ched enjoy his lengthy prison time.

Jody Morris plays up here. I follow a lot of very dull SPL players.

ailsa, Sunday, 22 April 2012 21:42 (fourteen years ago)

didn't he have an alleged rapey incident a long time ago?

we are not bemused (onimo), Sunday, 22 April 2012 22:08 (fourteen years ago)

getting deja vu there then read the thread

Wasn't Morris accused of being a bit rakey in the dim and distant?

Yeah, that's where it all started going wrong for him iirc.

Ash cole your to funny. Legend

nakhchivan, Sunday, 22 July 2012 21:50 (thirteen years ago)

‘Who’s your best friend in the game?’ I asked.
He smiled. ‘You’re not going to like this…’
‘Try me…’
‘Ash.’
‘Which Ash?’
‘Ashley Cole.’
Arsenal fans have loathed Cole since he quit on us for Chelsea in a row over a £5,000-a-week pay rise.
‘Are you serious?’
‘Yes. He’s nothing like what you guys think. Ash is a really sound guy and has been a proper friend to me.’
As I mulled over this shocking revelation, he added: ‘I’d take a bullet for him.’
Coleen nearly choked on her wine.
‘Do behave, Wayne! You wouldn’t take a bullet for him.’
‘I would! And he would for me, too. We’d die for each other!’
