I’ve apologised, I got it wrong in the heat of the moment and have held my hands up

You are entitled to your opinion on my character.

I do however hope that in hindsight your also feel your comment of “F off and get back to stacking shelves” was also ill thought out. There is nothing wrong with being a shelf stacker so using it in a derogatory way to try and insult/put down someone seems somewhat bizarre and irrational. Given the way you referred to it makes it appear you think shelf stacking is beneath you and that you look down on people who do it for a living. If this is the case it is not a nice character trait to have either.

There is no doubt it was not a nice post that triggered this episode hence my apology. I posted in the heat of the moment without knowing how seriously the player was injured. I’ve learnt a valuable lesson not to be so irrational with my posts and to be more careful with my choice of words. I wholeheartedly agree in hindsight that calling a player who is seriously injured a “coward” was completely wrong. It’s no excuse but Football is an emotive game and in this instance I let myself down with an inappropriate post.
