He went through very little trouble. He saw Lallana had Twitter and sent to him "Did you know your girlfriend cheated with you on holiday?" Not exactly going through hell and high water to deliver the info.
Actually, he claims to have sent an email, he claims to witnesses, he claims all sorts of things. I might claim that he was a sad attention seeking fantasist. If I put it on twitter, would that justify all the attention that this is getting on here?
He only has 200 followers and without going too technical, made it so that the only people who could see he posted it where people who followed both him and Adam, until somebody caught attention to it and spread the word. He made very little effort and all it would have taken is one Saints fan to pick up on it for it to snowball.
And he presumably would know how quickly that might happen. I am not saying that it's a good thing or a bad thing, but I definitely dont like twitter. And there is no way that I am divulging the fact that I had sausages for dinner tonight....oh, wait....
He probably assumed nobody would notice, he has no tied with Southampton FC so probably thought he could get away sending a message without anyone seeing it. Like I said, it wouldn't show up on anybody's homepage unless they followed both him and Adam, and seeing as he lives in East London as a Wycombe fan, he probably doubted anybody did. I'm certain he didn't expect this level of reaction. Granted, the guy seems like a bellend, he could have chosen a much more tactful way of doing it but he felt Adam had the right to know. Unless he is just making it up, but if he was, he'd have done it in a much more attention grabbing way than the way he chose.
I don't get the point of Facebook. Never have, never will. That can get as much bad press as possible, for all I care. But Twitter is different, and I've never agreed with the bad press that it gets. It's a fantastic tool with communicating news, arguably the best out there. I very, very rarely read newspapers or watch the news any more. I have no need to. I'll have already got the news from Twitter long before. The speed at which you can come across a piece of news on Twitter is wonderful. It's how I first learnt about Michael Jackson's death, it's how I first learnt about Fabio Capello's resignation, it's how I first learnt that the American Pie movie was being made. Small stories to big stories. Light hearted stories to life changing stories. Unfortunately there are a small minority of Z list celebrities who do use it to tell the world what they had to eat this morning, but this is hugely over-exaggerated - so much so, that many non-twitter users believe that this is what twiiter is. But it's very easy to avoid those Z list celebrities - just don't follow them! Likewise, as Twitter has evolved, there has also unfortunately become more people how use it for bad than good. They become keyboard warriors, spouting abuse at every turn. But again, so long as you're careful with who you follow, those people can be easily ignored (I only came across this supposed youth player of ours, Lea or whatever his name is, because of people discussing him on here. I'd been oblivious to him before hand, through twitter itself!!). Moreover, are most of those people really that much different from some of people we stand and sit with on a Saturday afternoon. I've come across some right vile people either at St Marys, or in the pub before hand. Like I say, Twitter is a fantastic news outlet. It has quite literally changed my life. Facebook, go away. What are you for? What do you bring to my life? Twitter, thank you. Good news, bad news, all news. You provide me with it. First.
Been following this thread, but I disagree - it's hard to avoid that rubbish when you see it on the news - So and so thinks this, So and so thinks that For Example, the other day was a news story: Nicki Minaj Leaves Twitter. Woopie ****ing Doo, no wonder it get's all sorts of bad press from non-twitter users when we have news stories like that filling up news pages I personally, cannot stand Twitter but each to their own
Totally agree. Who gives two hoots that Nicki Minaj has left Twitter. But I can wholeheartedly say that I had no idea about this until you'd just told me. As I say, I rarely read/watch/listen to news outside of Twitter these days (save for the odd venture onto the bbc, Saints or Hampshire wesbites), so I wouldn't have been able to find it out from there. And no-one who I follow on Twitter has tweeted that. Like me, I presume they too couldn't give two hoots.
Yep same here. I don't follow any useless blah blah Nicki Minaj blah people, nor any of the typical "cornflakes for breakfast LOL" people.
The one thing i don't like about twitter is the constant justin bieber trends and his ridiculous fans.
