Player abuse following Euro 2020

[manchester blue]

That’s papering over the cracks and doing nothing to solve the problem.

It would also send out the wrong message.

They could en-masse come off one chosen platform until the companies are forced to have all accounts verified. The players are on these for one reason and it’s not to keep us entertained, it’s money so will they? Time for a Jordan Whatsapp.

Time to make a stand and not just against the few dickhead racists so much as against the companies who allow these scumbags to populate their platforms.

For what it’s worth I rarely think when we see this it is from fans of the teams affected. I don’t believe these were all England fans as much as I don’t believe it’s always City or United fans abusing their own players when it’s happened after games.

Controversial I know but players need to stop taking the knee, It's not helping the situation what so ever.

Read Tyrone Mings tweet and maybe you will understand.

Read Tyrone Mings tweet and maybe you will understand.

I always find that comment reads like Bonucci’s “oh it’s partly their fault for XYZ”.

A lot of this online racial abuse has come from overseas and the media are totally ignoring it, that said anyone traced in this country posting racial hate should be charged and also banned from social media and the internet for life if that is possible.

Read Tyrone Mings tweet and maybe you will understand.

Does Tyrone Mings not understand that people called Patel and similar names have had a lot of racial abuse themselves and that a female politician might have had more than most?

The booing of the national anthems was a disgrace as well. Just fucking embarrassing, really made us look like a bunch of immature feral knobheads.

Heartwarming to see what the good people of Manchester have done to the Rashford mural after some little prick defaced it.

Also, well in Tyrone Mings.

No England player has anything to be ashamed of
They tried their best, they represented this country and were a penalty away
What pisses me off the most is this is such a minority of people and they DO NOT represent the majority If us.
the social media companies have given the trolls a platform and take no responsibility at all
These cowards would not say this in the pub, at the match of to the players face
Time to make an example, pass a law and lock them up for ten years

Or why not suggest let's just stop picking non white players. That will clear the "problem" straight away!

Great idea, especially as it is a proven fact that having a black skin makes you crap at penalties. Take Yaya, for instance...oh.

Just don’t get it ........... I stormed out of the pub and at no point did I blame any of our black players ....... in fact I actually felt sorry for Saka and the position he was put in :( sadly you will always have racism folk are sadly set in there way ....... had 5 white players took the pens and failed then somehow the likes of Sterling or Rashford would have been blamed for it ........ no logic in any of them
