    He rejoined twitter over the weekend: https://twitter.com/JamesMcC14
    At least I think it's him. Darren O'Dea, Shane Duffy and Jeff Hendrick have all replied to him, which would be unlikely if it wasn't him.
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    I'm pretty sure that this (large and loud) minority is present at every club in the English Leagues. The military and events like Poppy Day are increasingly fetishised over here and crudely simplified in the tabloid and then social media.

    So McClean would get stick even without his gormless (and since acknowledged) cartoon Provo antics on Twitter etc., I'm afraid.

    A member of the West Brom boards referred to West Brom being a "Protestant" club and an affinity to Rangers. You really can't make it up
    I think he just did. That said, there are some dodgy pubs around here where Rangers fans gather. I can provide a don't go to list if any of you are visiting.

    The most eloquent fans on the boards seem to be the ones who defend his talent and freedom of choice. Take from that what you will
    You admire people who agree with you?

    The whole Poppy thing has gone very Facist in England of late ! ! !

    Its like "YOU WILL WEAR THE POPPY OR ELSE" which kind of undermines a lot of the stuff that many of these people fought/died/got caught up in for.

    Its gone a bit weird and your use of the word "fetishised" is very apt.

    In fairness, most WBA fans are disappointed with the standard of the signing. Most of them see McClean as a work horse and a waste of money. They believe their team is short of quality and quantity. McClean is just a runner with no end product, skill or flair. The whole Poppy thing is a side show.

    Tenner bets it's bull****. Other players don't look like they're standing for an anthem.

    Yes. West Brom fans and people from Derry have commented on this.
    I suppose you know better. Or think you do.

    Those would be the West Brom fans and people of Derry who were in South Carolina for the match? Thought so.

    You mentioned the internet so it was was televised somewhere. And guessing there were West Brom fans, if not people from Derry, there in person. Hence the source of this.

    So we've established you don't know if it happened, you're just assuming it must have because people are upset? Grand, I'm assuming it didn't happen because it looks like rank bull****. We'll see who's right when the ****storm settles down.
