People loved Cooper when he made countless mistakes and was a terrible infield captain. the animosity against Meslier is appalling and uncalled for. Such a loyal player could have left when his premium was higher. A lovely bloke, loyal, humble and a great keeper who needs a change #lufc - ThreadSky

Cooper had lots of animosity too unfortunately

I never had a problem with Cooper the captain off the field but he was a terrible player and that was my issue. Didn’t have the same mass outrage as Meslier possibly because he was the same as them easy to have a go at players whose ethnicity is different.

They were obnoxious about Coops too. Yep uncalled for. Also the hatred at Paddy B!

Think proportionally abuse was different. Starting again with young Joseph atm…..another of the things I dislike about meathead #lufc fans

joseybackupnorth.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes uncalled for. Apparently Gnonto has been getting abuse too. Is that from Leeds fans or Italy fans?!

mazzaleeds.bsky.social•2 days ago

Hadn’t seen that about Willy……I can’t imagine what would make me send abusive messages to players and especially #lufc players. Having opinions and debating them is fine, I think Bamford is a terrible footballer that has been stealing a living from us for years but personally he’s a nice guy 🤷🏻‍♀️

A percentage of so called supporters and in fact general public are nasty assholes.
Last week BBC Breakfast did a piece on female tennis players and the abuse and threats they get. They showed some texts a British player has received. Vile. Absolutely vile.

Anyone sending threatening messages to sports people should be found by authorities and the law should hit them really hard.
Might start making people think twice.

Awful :(.

Yes the abuse is disgusting. They're just people.

It was @lutheview.bsky.social in his daily video who talked about it today

personal opinion is there are plenty of ways to criticise players, without the need for insults, name calling or abuse. No need for it, and crosses a line for me.

Oh not seen that I don’t do bogs or podcasts. Willy is the ‘happiest’ person and player we have-who could be nasty to him? plus he’s my 4 year old grandson’s fav player.

It’s horrible but at least 60-70% of people are just mean for a variety of reasons. That’s why social media generally fails once mass adoption is achieved.

carpettus.bsky.social•2 days ago

Btw that stat is just an indicator. It’s not 60.53% to assert accuracy :)
