I don't know what anyone has against this guy. Seems passionate in his support of spurs. More so than a lot of people moaning about the way he speaks or asking for subtitles. Or even saying that he'd be understood more by the Arse lot. We live in a multicultural Britain, deal with it. If you're not happy with him being a spurs fan because he's a young black lad using street vernacular piss off and support Chelsea or West Ham.

None of that bothers me.

The thing that I find annoying these days is that this is how being a fan is packaged and sold, as if that’s what it’s all about - the BANTZ, posting or doing something stupid for retweets, likes, views etc on social media.

For me being a fan was about knowing your football, supporting your team and being part of a community. Sure, you give it out now and then when you get a great win, but you can at least be able to have a chat with a rival fan without all this bollocks.

You just have to look at the state Twitter.

As I said... Urgh.

At least this time he was watching it on telly rather than taking an away ticket from someone who'd been following the club before they figured out it was a great way to make money on YouTube.

So he's not a real fan or deserving to go because he decided to vlog match days?

Jesus wept, and we're critical of West ham and Chelsea supporters

Did he actually go before he started vlogging? If so then fair enough, but I was under the impression he had scarcely if ever been before and then suddenly started being given tickets out of our away allocation for games like Arsenal.

Word....sorry, actually, for those that don’t understand that vernacular I mean, I agree with you wholeheartedly

Given that a Twitter feed is made up mostly of people you've chosen to follow, or at worst the retweets of people you'e chosen to follow, it always strikes me as a bit stupid that people claim it's all bollocks. If your Twitter feed is full of nonsense it's because you've followed idiots. It's the online equivalent of complaining about the lack of political debate on TV while choosing to watch Babestation.

I can't help but feel if expressions was part of AFTV everyone would hate him. My dislike of him has nothing to do with him using slang. I don't really understand why anyone critical of him is instantly labelled as some kind of racist, but anyway. To me he's just irritating and I don't find him funny. If he was white and posh I'd still feel the same way.

I think he's quite funny, he'd probably get on my tits a bit if I was sat next to him for a game, but seems immeasurably more likeable than most of these vlogger twats that other teams seems to have.

Behave. People find it annoying like they do any other accent. I didn't moan when people took the piss out of harry or tims accent (or maybe I did). Also some of us find the whole vlog thing cringey. I don't wish ill on The bloke but the whole thing isn't my cup of tea.

Guess we're all racists though.

This isn’t about my enjoyment of social media, it’s about the impact social media has had on how people behave as fans.

As an aside, Twitter is an open platform. You could follow the Pope and Jesus and still be exposed to posts from other people, whether that’s in the form of retweets or replies.
