Where did i compare the two ?... who played 20 times and was shipped out, despite us handing over cash for him. Gibson was played with Anderson on saturday in a must win game, if you are seriously comparing the two then you really have no idea.
No. They pretty much mean he stands around doing nothing like he was a lamp post. Others go as far as saying he can't pass the ball at all. No middle ground exists.Maybe wrong, I assume when people say that, they mean the game passes him by, not that he's incapable of passing a ball or moving around the pitch

I can understand having a distaste for those that spewed the hate at Gibson, and the idea of any squad bar Real being loaded with world class is a joke rather than spoilt, I concur. I was just wanting to separate the abuse factor and muppet type from those that simply don't think Gibson is good enough but do it with some respect or would like to see a player of proven class brought in.A little bit of both.
More precisely the kind of cnuts who would spew bile at an academy product who - shock horror - might not be good enough for a long-term career at United. The kind of spoilt twats who want all 25 of our squad places to be taken up by established stars or FM legend teenagers.
Never said that, more just rival fans being dicks, or it could be angry and mean spirited United fans, just saying there is no certainty.It's a conspiracy against Gibson

Nah, you're wrong there.I'd say the portion of United fans that moan about fellow supporters far outweigh the spoilt brats.

Not from your own supporters though, Sults. That's wrong.Criticism, abuse and adulation goes with the territory.
Unfortunate choice of words sultsCriticism, abuse and adulation goes with the territory.
Gibbo's a big lad.
Disagree. I can't think of a decent reason to abuse your own unless it's in the heat of the moment.Criticism, abuse and adulation goes with the territory.

It's an united theme I think you go on RI and 90% the people there are moaning about plastic fans spoiling the atmosphere.Nah, you're wrong there.
Either that or unfamiliar with the thousands upon thousands of posts on the Internet from people complaining their way through arguably the most succesful period in the history of one of the most succesful clubs on the planet.
I can understand that at or during a game a bit more than looking for someone to abuse in one's spare time.Football supporters aren't always a rational bunch.
It's nothing to do with rational. And I would expect the odd one. But by the sounds of it it's a whole blood of idiots.Football supporters aren't always a rational bunch.
How the hell have you managed that?You get a lot of abuse on Twitter when you have a lot of followers. It's just part of it. I'm sure Nani and Rio get quite a bit. I've got 10,000 and I get my share. You've got to just let it run off your back.
Still, any supporters who feel the need to lash out at Gibson on Twitter are idiots. How is that going to help the situation?
Indeedwhich says a lot about the knowledge of those same posters ---- the players have a competition amongst themselves where they try and hit the crossbar from a variety of distances etc. When asked who usually wins it 2 players were named Scholes (of course) and Gibson.
Thats's all well and good but as fans you can only judge potential/talent on the basis of what you see of the player in games, not crossbar challenges noone has seen.which says a lot about the knowledge of those same posters ---- the players have a competition amongst themselves where they try and hit the crossbar from a variety of distances etc. When asked who usually wins it 2 players were named Scholes (of course) and Gibson.

This is disgraceful stuff. It's not his fault that he's being picked is it? Jesus.This is some of the stuff allegedly posted on Twitter, so anyone like to own up?
@DGIBBO28 You are shit and Fergie will sell you in the summer.
@DGIBBO28 Team do all hard work keeping posession then u hit row z every feckin time!!
@DGIBBO28 You are abysmal excuse for a footballer. You are a one trick pony-a shit one at that. What Fergie sees in you i don't know...
Really? Have you never said 'oh feck off' during a football game?Disagree. I can't think of any decent reason to abouse any professional player.
Being named John Terry.Disagree. I can't think of any decent reason to abouse any professional player.
Games alone prove what most people say about him as baseless hyperbole and at times pure bullshit. When he has played he has proved can actually pass the ball and he doesn't stand around like a lamp post either. The problem with most fans of today however unless you are performing like you were Scholes/Keane in his pomp you are referred to as rank shit. Regardless of your skill set, the fact you are a young player still learning you trade, trying to do it with limited playing time.Thats's all well and good but as fans you can only judge potential/talent on the basis of what you see of the player in games, not crossbar challenges noone has seen.
I think thats probably the best thing to do. It is saying that he is not affected at all by what were said there and just simply, cant be bothered. I am sure he was suggested to join by Rio and most probably warned what might happen. Having to do the filtering, like what Rio has to do too, will be 'bothering' him as well.He figured out he couldn't be bothered in less than 2 hours? Would have been better off saying he didn't need need his family/friends seeing some of the comments and instead would just go back to focusing on footballing and doing his best for United (or get his PR agent or borrow one and get them to craft some statement for him).
The couldn't be bothered sounds a bit weak.
yes i have, I'm just a fan entitled to my own views, however i owe respect to people who create this sport week in week out. Don't get me wrong - If Torres dived i would leave him a message criticising this behaviour but not him as a human being.Really? Have you never said 'oh feck off' during a football game?
I can say he's a twat on here or talking to my mate but i wouldn't twit (is that a word?) it on his account.Being named John Terry.
and some havent got 2 brain cells to rub togetherFootball supporters aren't always a rational bunch.
