    Eerily quiet on twitter so used to players bigging up games, tweeting each other on performance. Even the apologies to fans after a bad game have disappeared. I wonder if McCall told them to stay off!

    I don’t blame them tbh. It’s prob for the best they aren’t on there at all. It’s a toxic platform at the best of times - with good reason at the minute - and they’ll only get shot down if repeating the “must try better next week” posts time and time again.

    The likes of twitter is good for transmitting information to large numbers of people, e.g. City giving out matchday line ups, Met Office weather warnings, Environment Agency flood warnings etc., but for expressing opinions it is definitely a place to be avoided.

    Too right. I followed Alastair Campbell and came off twitter because of the obnoxious stuff he used to post, such as personally blaming Boris for all the corona virus deaths.
