...who thinks trolling one of our own players on social media is a bit naff - even if he brings it on himself. It can't be a positive thing, can it?

He literally tweeted that he wrote and posted something to bait people.. so he admitted it himself.

And In the past people have mentioned him without tagging. But he jumped into their tweets to start an exchange of words..

Twitter is full of idiots. Dont give them the platform to do it

If that is all that it takes for a sort of local celebrity to bait other people then the people responding ever are stupid or have anger management issues.

But that is twitter

The club should be all over him telling him not to interact it's as simple as that.

Players shouldn't interact rule number 1

Twitter is full of Bots and it's not uncommon for people to be goaded over and over again.

Out of the thousands of town fans he wont remember the support given to him he will remember his interactions on twitter. He is best to leave well alone and let his talking be done on the pitch

The reason he is a hero at tranmere is because he did just that

At town. Weve had a rubbish season ( yes I get we.re 7th but it doesnt feel like it)
And he has spent alot of time letting fans know about his off field antics which doesnt sit well whilst you're struggling to score goals.

Agree.
It’s a bit like supporters abusing players inside the stadium, qand then if that player scores he celebrates on front of them then the supporters getting all upset.

It’s all pathetic.

None of the players really need to be on social media. I know it's the done thing but that might change for a lot of clubs I think.

Only misery usually comes from it and it gives loons the opportunity to either poke them or hero worship them as well as giving them a chance to act like tools which Norwood seems to do quite often.

I got thirty downvotes for saying our players were fools for being on twitter...

He's a nob who can't stay fit, and most of that stems from doing fúck all over the summer and coming back overweight.

He is unfortunately making himself a target by being our leading scorer. In fact you could argue he's the only natural striker left on our books.

This goes back months, and some of our own b*llend fans started it. Let's not beat around the bush shall we.

Why would you care if our players have a sense of humour or not?

Their job is to performance on the pitch (assuming they can even make it to the pitch). I couldn't care less if they were duller than watching the turnstiles dry.

I DON'T. THAT'S THE POINT

The constant complaint about Norwood seems to be that he's "larking about" on Twitter etc and should be "getting his head down".

If someone was scoring goals for us, I wouldn't care if they put milk in their tea first and thought Mrs Brown's Boys was funny. I couldn't care less about their personality and what they do on social media.

He's making himself a target by being a nob, there isn't a single other player on the books that behaves like he does on social media.

There are obviously bellends in every fanbase, but how many players at all clubs do you see getting into these silly battles on social media - what doe she honestly think will come out of it?

The point is he's not scoring goals for us, he's barely on the pitch for us so given that is the primary criteria in your sentence the rest of it is irrelevant.

It's hardly just larking about either, he's had some serious misdemeanours whilst not being fit enough to play for us. Any sensible person would keep their head down rather than court the obvious criticisms that can be aimed at them.

He makes himself a target by being a knob. He needs to get a hobby.

He's not scoring enough goals. But he is our leading scorer and the only one who looks like they remember where the net is.

At the moment we can still, maybe, just about, make the play offs. But if he was ruled out for the rest of the season and we were left relying on Drinan (1 goal in 21 appearances), Sears (3 in 26), Jackson (1 in 20) and Hawkins (1 in 20) then we might as well call it quits now.

He may well be an idiot. But a lot of footballers are.

I'd like players who stay fit but when injured act in a professional manner to assist with their own recovery.

Oh, I'd also like them to not get arrested for drink driving.

That would be lovely, ta.

I think it’s six of one and half a dozen of the other for me. I don’t condone people abusing players, but then again, he’s searching for bait for what reason? Just shut up, get fit and score some goals.

I also appreciate that if all was rosy, this kind of interaction would be seen as ‘funny’.

Bloke just comes across as a right berk at times, when he hasn’t really set the pulses racing after what was a fan fare arrival.

What annoys me more is it's the day before matchday, concentrate on your role rather than goading supporters. There's no reason to be doing that other than to gain attention. Almost like he enjoys it
