Can’t stand The Clumpany, Fr Paul Stone or Jeanette Finlay. They’re probably on this board, but I don’t care. I’ve muted those accounts though I still seem to see their tweets from time to time.
Throw in clowns like 'Bartin' and James Forrest (no the player) and you've got the set of absolute fannies to avoid.

If any of you read this, sort yer lives out.
Jeanette is the chairperson of The Trust and has done a helluva lot in terms of the OBFA.

Not sure what’s she’s done to be lumped in with the rest of those names.

Twitter generally is a cesspit.

I’m not on twitter, but I would bet my arm that a few of those people post on here.

I run a few Celtic pages and groups on Facebook, that no doubt many on here are members of and the utter shampooe posted on it is infuriating. Push like, can I get a hail hail for my cat, it’s his birthday.

I just wish they could spell. People who don't know the difference between their, there and they're, your and you're, and say things like "should of" are already unhinged lunatics in my book. :lol:

Correct.

I've had a few debates with her about politics etc but she works hard for the Celtic support.

Maybe she should have an obviously fabricated blog.

That's fair, I kind of zoomed over her name at first - wouldn't really say I have anything to complain about there. The others though...

We're basically talking about literally all the people who think Griffiths is better than Dembele here.

The Clumpany and James Forrest are relentless. They’ll write an article about the the most trivial throwaway tabloid stories that contain any sort of pro Rangers narrative.

I’m all for exposing some of the utter ridiculousness (‘wealth of the radar’, Murray moonbeams etc) but these guys could fill a thousand word rebuttal if Tavernier says “‘the lads have done well in training and are looking forward to the next game”.

Celtic Underground’s pretend ITK nonsense and ‘we’re hearing’ series is pathetic too.

Aye, its going to be a lot of the same people on social media, whether it’s twitter, the facebooks, or KDS (which somehow usually avoids the social media tag).

Twitter’s the easiest for avoiding right-wing fuds, blocking trolls and tuning out the James Forrests.

KDS had a near monopoly on Celtic zoomers until 2006 when Twitter disrupted our business model. :(

Always amuses me when someone mentions their surprise at how many bangers are on social media.

Twitter is extremely user friendly and the folk posting absolute nonsense are the ones who say it in the pubs they drink in. A lot of the twitter users don't really understand social etiquette and just say things they would normally say in the pub.

This element of the support has always been there, certainly throughout my lifetime. It's just easier to spot on twitter.

I don’t mind James Forrest, he posts on our page, I don’t read all of it, but if I have a spare five minutes, then I’ll give it a go.

On here, with mods and their powers, i would imagine it’s a lot easier to filter out the crap and the posters who repeatedly do it.

I'm unfortunately old enough to remember the halcyon days of internet chatrooms in the late 90s and any room I frequented would usually see us have a disproportionate number of numpties usually only exceeded by the huns themselves.
