Jody Morris is quite amusing on Twitter though. Compared to some dull footballers anyway. He does seem a bit obsessed with Tool Academy though.

I have started following loads of sad-sack rubbish SPL footballers. Graham Carey is the dullest man on earth, btw, closely followed by Joe Ledley.

Is Morris really okay? I have never really forgiven him for pissing a genuine talent up the wall and leading that nice young man John Terry astray...

I've got no idea if he's actually OK or not, he seems to just laugh at his old Chelsea mates and talk about Tool Academy all the time, and big up the St Johnstone twitter massive. @morriskid if you want to see for yourself. I only started following him because a mate of mine retweets some of his more amusing comments from time to time.

Agree about the talent-pissing, is weird to see him being average in an average SPL team.

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

my Bébé just cares for me (onimo), Wednesday, 2 February 2011 12:32 (thirteen years ago) link

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

Booze issues, not sure anything else, though wouldn't really surprise me. He got into a fair few scraps.

Bloody hell, forgotten he'd been at Leeds.

I am also now following Michael Duberry and wallowing in nostalgia for what might have been

Now, where's Andy Myers?

Duberry's twitter is really boring, completely obsessed with driving conditions/traffic levels between Perth and Glasgow and the carpark at Braehead (presumably when he's going to Nandos all the time).

btw, I have a mate who spells it Kristefer, which is even worse.

Liverpool prodigy Jonjo Shelvey's Twitter account has been suspended after he posted a picture of his penis. "Apologies for the picture, one of my mates messing around with my phone! Sorry!" tweeted Shelvey, moments before his short social media-horrifying career was prematurely curtailed.

Hope Kenny wasn't following him at the time.

Michael Duberry, Jody Morris and the usually-quite-funny Cillian Sheridan were having a terrible #turnoffs conversation for most of last night, mostly aimed at women who drink pints, play pool, listen to rap and gamble. Mostly also consisting of Duberry RTing all of Sheridans comedy efforts. Filled my entire feed for about two hours as well.

I somehow didn't know about the Cole rape allegation; I thought he was just a drink driver

Ay while we're on this, has Asamoah Gyan ever done anything terrible? The guy seems like a hero and I will be disappointed if so

Googling has only turned up this hilariously esoteric beef

(American) footballer courts controversy by rainsing good points

"What kind of person celebrates death?" he wrote. "It's amazing how people can HATE a man they have never even heard speak. We've only heard one side..."

He tried to clarify those comments Wednesday.

"This controversial statement was something I said in response to the amount of joy I saw in the event of a murder. I don't believe that this is an issue of politics or American pride; but one of religion, morality, and human ethics," he wrote.

After quoting a bible verse, he wrote: "I wasn't questioning Bin Laden's evil acts. I believe that he will have to face God for what he has done. I was reflecting on our own hypocrisy. During 9/11 we watched in horror as parts of the world celebrated death on our soil. Earlier this week, parts of the world watched us in horror celebrating a man's death."

Just a bit of banter:

Wayne Rooney lashed out after a Liverpool supporter branded him a “fat whore’’ and “ugly lil nonse” on Twitter.

Rooney, 25, promptly challenged fan Sam Oldham to meet him at United’s training ground for a real-life showdown.

He threatened: “I’ll put u asleep within 10 ­seconds hope u turn up if u dont gonna tell ­everyone ur scared u ­little nit. I’ll be ­waiting.’’

The bitter war of words, played out in front of Rooney’s 563,000 Twitter followers, will not impress his boss Sir Alex Ferguson.

And the 69-year-old manager will be tempted to give Rooney the infamous ­Fergie hairdryer treatment, a toe-to-toe bawling out.

The club spends millions ­employing security guards to protect their squad of stars.

A club insider said: “The last thing we need is rival fans turning up ­looking for a fight. The boss will be livid.’’

Rooney and Oldham traded insults shortly after midnight yesterday.

Oldham told the star: “Rooney ya fat whore ill smash ya head in with a pitchin wedge an bury ya with a ballast fork ya fat ugly lil nonse.’’

Fuming Rooney then ­challenged the fan to a ­confrontation at United’s Carrington training ground.

He wrote: “haha you know were I train every day kid come and do it good luck.’’

Oldham replied: “and ill be down tomorrow lad in me twin turbo ­nissan micra’’.

Rooney retorted: “Cool bring ur sandwedge girl.’’

United fans who saw the exchange started blitzing Oldham with abuse.

Both men then appeared to back down. Oldham wrote: “I wasn’t bein a hardman its called a joke mate.’’

Rooney added: “Haha bit of banter and people go nuts chill all people.”

The footballer did not say if he knew Oldham, whose Twitter ­account was shut down yesterday.
