What tweet is this mate?

Jolly tweeted to publicise his piece (it didn't refer to anyone, just the piece as far as I recall), which ensured lots of people saw it including several national newspaper journalists.
Between yesterday and today, the tweet has disappeared.

 

[blueincy]

So mean.

Surely you should've put meen:)

 

[blueincy]

Appreciate that mate but it certainly wasn't ignored yesterday on Twitter. Was shared around by pretty much all the top writers. Was hugely embarrassing.

Is this him LT :)



Don't let the bastards get ya down
Turn it around with another round of quality reading material...

 

[oakiecokie]

Thanks all. Seriously. As another poster has pointed out he has deleted his article from Twitter so now I'll move on, develop a thicker skin, and put yesterday down to a bad one.

Thats the spirit Steve, don`t let the bastards grind you down mate.
Keep writing your wonderful articles and fuck `em all.

Your city-related articles are always spot-on @Lucky Toma tbh.
Many's the time an issue has caught fire amongst city fans - or me at least - then lo and behold its one you've also identified, but instead of it being yet another post on here, you fashion and craft those thoughts really eruditely into a piece which goes out there much more widely into he public domain. I think you make your case in a really powerful way, time after time.
As others have said, please keep the good work going. And those of us on twitter will do our best to Like and Retweet as much as possible!

I'd echo all that @chesterbells has put.

Don't let the bastards grind you down, write from the heart with truth and passion.

I believe the phrase I'm looking for is Publish & be dammed.

If you cant see martin tyler hates city then you are simply deluded.

It will always about being able to source and recognise a story. Any fucker can write rambling prose.

Even Ric, FFS.

Now, now.

Couldn't agree more. Great comment.

I always find @Lucky Toma 's articles incredibly sapient and eloquent. Especially about the more abstruse aspects of the City perspective( or 'The City condition', if you will).

Jolly is a troglodyte hack surrounding himself with sycophantic, selfish morons. A weird, and ultimately futile, self-preservation society scared of their own job insecurity.

Fuck them and keep up the good work LT!

Is "Jolly" an actual journalist or something?

I dunno, but he lives next door ;-)

 

[Jalfraag]

I dunno, but he lives next door ;-)

He has plenty of fairy liquid though.

Ha maybe we should send our Eddie round to sort him out.

we must have a game tomorrow and are doing well

 

[chesterbells]

Nah, cant be right Karen - Jose's got that job lined up next...

"PSG- Get pep.."
Psg apparently want pep. The article even mentions pep being on 15million a year.
Anything to try and derail us, sad twats.

@Lucky Toma I saw the article posted on here with the implication that it was in response to yours about Tyler. I read it and couldn't see the connection between his and yours so either I'm bad at reading and understanding or he is. I didn't see your article as being tribalistic and I think you went to great lengths to distance yourself from that but rather critiqued Tyler as missing the mood of the game and pushing a narrative regardless of reality. Of course it's been days since I read it so I may have completely misremembered it :)

For me Jolleys article smelt of arrogance and smugness. Basically appealing to authority and saying no one can hold journalists to account. This is normally the last defence of the indefensible. I'm sorry that you feel his article has damaged your reputation amongst people you respect. It might not be any help at all but I will try and remember to read all the articles you link to on here, send a tweet about and throw some clicks your way.
