The reason fans follow the players is because Twitter is the only form of media where the players normally speak their mind rather than the media soundbites that they have to give on TV/Radio/etc. This might not always be the correct language but if you try and sensor them then Twitter will only turn into another censored form of media.
If there are young kids who would be offended by this language maybe they shouldn't be on a social media site?
I think that the fact that there were a few players involved in this 'name calling' shows that we might actually have a bit of team spirit at the club. Something that has been missing over the last couple of seasons.
What level of education have they achieved? I assume you know?
I don't use twitter much, I personally wouldn't waste my time following football players opinions, not to say that it's not of interest to some. My question is do they advertise themselves as LCFC players on their accounts? If so they are representing LCFC in some way and should be responsible for the impression they give. Liverpool's Nathan Eccleston's "Don't let the media make u believe that was terrorist that did it" 911 cover-up rant landing him in a bit of bother is one example I recall.
I think I'm right in suggesting few kids are really offended by bad language these days? It's usually the family that get a little annoyed when they start aping it.
Good point that it shows team spirit. I think last season might have tipped the boat and nearly created a sinking ship with all the new arrivals. Prior to that I think Leicester's team spirit was good. They were on good form when I met them in Bangkok, admittedly for 15 mins and on best behaviour in front of their Thai guests.
No. But when you combine that with an ill-educated prima donna it's almost de rigueur.
Don't ever go into a barrister's robing room. Swearing is very much the norm.
