Morgan transfer listed for Twitter outburst


Aldershot Town forward Marvin Morgan has been suspended, fined two weeks wages and placed on the transfer list after using his Twitter account to abusively respond to fans after getting booed when substituted during the club's 2-1 defeat to Hereford on Monday.

"Where's that [support] going to get you! I hope you all die." Morgan tweeted after the game. He has since apologised. A club statement released yesterday read: "The player accepted that his conduct was totally misguided and inappropriate."

I love that footballers are on twitter, but maybe some kind of "twitter policy" or media training is needed? I mean, I assume he wasn't being entirely serious.

hahahaha omg

Footballers getting let loose on the internet always seems to lead to something hilarious. Either them saying something stupid on twitter or having AWFUL websites that look like something a 5 year old made. John Utaka's is amazing - click on "Utaka in pictures" it's actually genius. I can't work out whether he's being serious or not. http://www.johnutaka.com/

AHAHAHA russell. i can only stand him when he's with noel though. like, his solo stuff is so -______________- i love him when he starts being all dickensian, but his humour in his stand-up stff, and when he moderated the MTV awards was kinda lame.

my favourite from the big fat quiz of th year crew is David Mitchell ofc. HE doesnt even need to say anything funny, just his VOICE is filled with so much dry sarcasm i lol anyway! haha

95% of footballers are stupid, and they WILL be stupid through Twitter. Even when what they say is true, it's usually not the right place or way to say it.
Back in July, little Papu Gomez tweeted against our management (things like: Has anyone seen the San Lorenzo management? We're waiting for them in Salta...)
I'm the first one to complain about Savino and co. but kid, keep your fucking mouth shut.

i'm sorry but "i hope you all die" is just too funny to be taken seriously

We don't need to train them, because that would just be boring; they'd say the same media-sanitised shit as everyone else...

Too harsh. Dude was just doing what it do. I too express my anger on twitter in the exact same manner.
