rudemedic Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Has any one else noticed that a few of our squad who are on twitter have been a lot quieter than normal? Is it instructions from on high? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beag_teeets Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Maybe, maybe they suspect that if they tweet they will get replies from the mouthbreathers in our fan base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcprozac Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) Good, sick of them waffling on about how they're going to right the previous :censored:e performance only to huff and puff and limp to another defeat. As someone put on Twitter the other day, couldn't ever see Andy Holden, Andy Barlow or Andy Ritchie tweeting about what they were going to do the next game, no they went out and just did it.

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I reckon they've all got other Twitter accounts to avoid headbanger attention - of which there was quite a bit. #anywherein10minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisbrogan Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Never understood why people get so bothered about what the players put on Twitter. No-one is forced to follow them Good, sick of them waffling on about how they're going to right the previous :censored:e performance only to huff and puff and limp to another defeat. As someone put on Twitter the other day, couldn't ever see Andy Holden, Andy Barlow or Andy Ritchie tweeting about what they were going to do the next game, no they went out and just did it. Never understood why people get so bothered about what the players put on Twitter. No-one is forced to follow them. I also think that there's a fair number of players from the 'pinch-me' years that would have used Twitter had it been available and would have been posting similar messages. The likes of Mike Milligan, Ian Marshall & Earl Barrett currently on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beag_teeets Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Ooh, Crofty, Wabara, Smith and Cisak have all tweeted tonight! The club's embargo has been lifted!!?!?! I wonder what insights we can glean from their tweets? Looks like Smith has a new phone, Cisak wants an xmas tree, Wabara wants an early night and I have no idea what Croft is on about.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I have no idea what Croft is on about. How he's gutted that the real Jack Duckworth passed away last week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudemedic Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Here's a question... why do you follow the players? I can't imagine much worse filling my timeline... It's twitter it's banal no matter who you follow (unless I'm following completely the wrong people in which case some recommendations would be good). It gives me some decent gossip and stuff like that since I don't have any sources unlike most on here on the rare occasion that someone's source is accurate.

oldhamandy1 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I find it funny when people moan what others say on Twitter, what are the players supposed to say? "We won't win today because we're :censored: but come and watch anyway" Don't like it don't follow, but for the most part it's all rubbish.

laticsrblue Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 (edited) Talking of players making there thoughts public. What's happened to Simpson's column in the Chron?
