    There’s someone who doesn’t understand the tribal nature of football support

    Norwood dropped two leagues and is still getting involved in our business.

    Just proving what a bad egg he is/was. Maybe Khalid was right getting rid?

    Just a thought...Maybe Norwood, Kitching and Kane didn't /don't see eye to eye with Collins? Hence the disruptive tweets.

    Perhaps the transfer business was the board backing Collins in getting rid of dissenters.

    I said the camp was too big and too many people with too much time. That feeds the tw@ttersphere.

    1- football isn’t a normal job and you’re not extremely mature for ignoring that thousands of people will consume whatever they put our publicly with an emotional investment
    2- it is not even normal behaviour in the context of normal jobs. If I saw someone putting as their status on any given social media “big congratulations to slim kev for finally leaving his junior accountant job at Sleaford, Buggins and Lords Ltd and moving on to much bigger and better things at Hollins Accountancy Services as Senior Account co-ordinator” I’d think they’d lost their mind. You might message them directly or respond to their post but I just don’t agree that’s normal behaviour
    3- all over the pitch I actually think we’re looking good for this season except CB where we are infinitely weakened so the transfer is certainly in no world a good one for us at present.

    Bet he wouldn't have congratulated styles if he had moved on

    Can't see anything wrong with what Kane said at all. Kitching has got a big move to a bigger club a league above us and his teammate has said congratulations.

    If anyone sees that as inflammatory and out of order then they have an agenda.

    And Norwood is bang on about it. The reaction from those with an agenda is ******* awful. They criticise fans for being negative but then abuse a player for doing something so harmless

    I’m in two minds:

    Knew exactly what he was doing, Herbie has used his platform as a senior player twice now and in my view both have been negative it’s not a good example to set to the newer/younger players.

    Or this could be absolute ******** and he might just have been genuinely happy for his mate who got his big move to Coventry and hasn’t thought of the social media side

    It's strange. Wonder what Oldham fans think. The morning of a match and he's tweeting about something from the message board of his former club, about a former team mate who tweeted a minute after news was released.

    Second point true.
    But I think it's the original interview that's sparked so much resentment.
    Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
    If ever, I publicly disrespected the providers that I'm sub contracted to work for.
    I would be out on my arse , I might say it on a wats app to a work colleague.
    However I wouldn't go public which he as.
    Either very naive or just a silly boy.

    I'd say he's either a devious snake, on the wind up, stirring it or, he's totally genuine and just thick as mince. I'd say the latter probably.

    My only issue is the ‘better’ bit. Whether it’s ‘better’ or not, for those of us that pile our money and hope into the club we simply don’t want to hear it. Particularly from someone who earned a decent living from us very recently. Comes across as arrogant or stupid. Or both.

    I’ll really miss it when Norwood stops getting mentioned on here,
