Huh?
I saw this too, the bloke is an absolute pillock and a complete chancer.
I think that most "Twitter Journo/Pundits" are. It's just a race to get there first with the news.

I understand journalists have it hard nowadays but I think it’s really poor that after the supposed meeting yesterday, not one bit has come out of it yet from anyone

Unless they've been told to keep schtum by the club until it's official. Would think if it was anything else something would have come out by now.

@ChronCourtney
Last year, I was subjected to vile abuse from an online troll about my work. I received threats, insults to myself and my family and verged on quitting my job. Today, I have discovered the person behind that account. I might just have to venture back into journalism for a day.

The troll only has their selves to blame for all this, firstly because they made the lives of other people a misery with unwarranted attacks that crossed the line and secondly, because they were stupid enough to post a link on an Anything Else thread last week to a site that had their e-mail address and real name on :roll:

In their favour is the fact they attacked people of reasonable mind who maybe won't choose to fight fire with fire.

Genuine, honest & personal apologies would probably help.
